Miss Gayle<p>Just a reminder class, Ky is a state w/ a deep red legislature.</p><p>If you come here and your wife, daughter, girlfriend, or mother needs emergency medical care, they will be left to die in the parking lot. </p><p>If you are LGBTQ, you will be harassed, and if you are Trans your regular medical regime will be withheld from you.</p><p>If you are non-christian you can expect to be treated like dirt unless you're filthy rich, then they'll just smirk behind your back.</p><p><a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/RedStateHellhole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RedStateHellhole</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Keeneland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Keeneland</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Kentucky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kentucky</span></a></p>

Miss Gayle<p>Kentucky moved to violate prisoner's rights to freedom of religious practice and their civil rights to appropriate medical care by forcing them to de-transition in obedience to one whackadoodle cult's beliefs. </p><p>It's a violation of their basic human rights. </p><p>Since many people in prison are awaiting trial and are not yet (or ever) found guilty of anything, it's a gross assault on their dignity &amp; freedom.</p><p><a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Kentucky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kentucky</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/RedStateHellhole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RedStateHellhole</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/SeparationOfChurchAndState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SeparationOfChurchAndState</span></a></p>
Miss Gayle<p>If you're thinking about moving to KY, don't.

Miss Gayle<p>Kentucky's plan is apparently to be the 3rd world backwater of the US to attract wall street projects that want sub-living wage workers.</p><p><a href="https://sherwood.news/personal-finance/which-21-states-kicked-year-off-by-raising-minimum-wage/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">sherwood.news/personal-finance</span><span class="invisible">/which-21-states-kicked-year-off-by-raising-minimum-wage/</span></a></p><p>Over a third of Kentucky's supposed population "growth" was in the elderly who can't or won't leave.
