Yeah, the government doesn’t get a hall pass to infringe upon constitutional rights just because someone is under a probationary period at their government job.

Why not allow them some sense of comfort for their mental illness when it costs us nothing?
Because history is riff with trauma and chaos when societies ignore fundamental truth in favor of comfort or perception.

That’s a cute argument but if they don’t have heavily documented instances prior to this occasion, it won’t hold mustard.

How many people have received discipline or been fired for "misgendering?" If the answer isn't zero, you are literally wrong.

because frick you and the rest of the groomers, that's why.

You really don't need all that much to let someone go during probationary period. I've seen several perfectly acceptably performing colleagues be let go at the end of their probation.

Sorry for caring about them enough to not call them the wrong thing.

Imagine a governor in a struggling southern state focusing his time and energies on solving real problems like insurance, crumbling roads and flood preparation instead of doing the cultural war thing.
Look, I do think Gov Landry has been mostly a headline reaching, empty suit. But he’s right on this one, and happy he spoke up.

I wish we could defund the libraries, but they're so flush with cash, it wouldn't make a dent in them.
The library has like a 600 million dollar surplus
That means that if they sent a refund check to every taxpayer in Baton Rouge, we’d all get like a million bucks

Again, the library is a state actor and this constitutes a potential infringement of a fundamental right. That will not be swept aside just because the supervisors claims that he was fired for not properly writing dates on the library cards in the back of the book.
And I’m not claiming he’ll 100% succeed on a first amendment claim but if I’m the state attorney oooking at this file, I’m telling my people to get ready to pay up or at least be ready for a drawn out fight.

Feel free to do the easiest of google searches and come back with how you wrong you are. I bet you won't though.

I'm talking about at a state agency as well

You keep falling back on the strawman of “trans people existing” when the discussion is very clearly the requirement of greater society to conform to a biological falsehood.
Would you care for examples of chaos and trauma of society being pressured to conform to a biological falsehood?

That's not a refund. That's a gift.
No way you contributed 1 mil.

No clue because you don't need any real documentation for why you are letting them go
