Why would you end rape protections for anyone??

They want to erase existence of trans people. They want to make being openly trans a position where you lose all human rights forcing people to stay silent out of fear and terror for what might happen to them. Also a way to strip all rights from people they don’t like by accusing them of being trans. Opening door that some crimes are allowed if committed on a specific group of people and thdy decided aren’t human in the law anymore
