Missouri judge declines to block ban on gender-affirming care - eviltoast

A Missouri law banning gender-affirming health care for transgender minors and some adults will take effect Monday after a circuit court judge on Friday declined to block it.

St. Louis Circuit Court Judge Steven Ohmer on Friday rejected a request to temporarily block the enforcement of Missouri’s gender-affirming care ban, writing in an order that “petitioners have not clearly shown a sufficient threat of irreparable injury absent injunctive relief.”

    This judge had to literally be sticking his head in the ground yelling “I’m not listening” to not see a) the literal mountain and decades of research that completely contradict his statement and b) his multitude of colleagues that have blocked these bans already based on this actual evidence.
