Hoping to raise awareness of his case, Clark gave a number of interviews to media outlets, including The Federalist. In these interviews, he repeatedly referred to his daughter as a girl, stating to The Federalist that ‘she is a girl. Her DNA will not change through all these experiments that they do.’<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">“While many might take this to be an honest statement of biological fact, Marzari quoted it as a prime example of Clark\u2019s ‘family violence of a public denial of [Maxine\u2019s] gender identity.’ Marzari convicted Clark of this violence, and issued a ‘protection order’ preventing him from speaking to journalists or the public about his case.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> Unsurprisingly, a school councilor is <a href=\"https:\/\/theothermccain.com\/2019\/04\/25\/transgender-madness-takes-its-toll-family-violence-if-parents-disagree\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">responsible<\/a> for the sudden onset gender dysphoria.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">“This child exhibited extreme emotional disturbance in the wake of her parents\u2019 divorce and, as previously mentioned, was encouraged in her transgender identification by a school counselor. The public education system has become part of the Transgender Industrial Complex and, as this case proves, the courts are also complicit in this madness.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> Funny how it this only goes one way: You can convince someone they are “transgender”, but woe be upon those who <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2019\/04\/24\/father-gagged-found-guilty-family-violence-calling-trans-daughter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dare suggest<\/a> that someone really is “cisgender”.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">“While the main thrust of Marzari\u2019s ruling focused on Clark\u2019s public statements, Marzari also ordered that Clark be enjoined from ‘exposing’ Maxine to any materials that might ‘question whether [her] gender identity is real or the treatments [she] seeks are in [her] best interests.’ This order arose from the fact that, in mid-March, Clark invited his daughter to watch a video of a small-time Canadian conservative commentator with him.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> This ain’t about freedom, but rather anything but.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> TTFN.<\/p>\n<p><meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary\" \/><meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@PoliticHatBlog\" \/><meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@ThePoliticalHat\" \/><meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"Gender Madness: Coerced Speech; Illegal Speech; 'Family Violence' Speech\"\/><meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"The focus this time: Say the magic words, or else!\" \/><meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/impeachreno.org\/politicalhat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/EaglewithFlag.gif\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.
