With the point,

woman, a look at culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with the point.

Late last month, Washington State Governor Jay Inslee signed a bill to create a state-run hotline

so that residents can report so-called hate crimes and bias incidents.

Such crimes and incidents would include, quote,

non-criminal activity, such as refusing to use another person's pronouns

or accidentally misgendering someone,

and no evidence is required in order to report someone.

Proponents of the bill say the hotlines necessary for members of marginalized communities

who quote might be afraid to contact police, but in reality it'll just pit members of the community and potentially even

families against one another and could mobilize police and child and family services to violate

families and enforce radical and dangerous ideas about sex and gender. Tragically, Washington's also the and really need there is legal and police reform to protect their safety and uphold their

freedoms, not attacking families.
