The policy — which, among other things, requires that cops address transgender people by their preferred pronouns and chosen names — comes with mandatory training for all officers who will have to know the difference between transgender, non-binary and gender non-conforming.

The policies were announced Wednesday along with an awareness campaign about the state’s anti-discrimination law when it comes to sexual minorities applying for a job or renting an apartment, as well as a revised policy for how detention facilities deal with LGBTQ juveniles.

The LGBTQ Equality Directive is the most sweeping guidance by the Attorney General’s Office since Gurbir Grewal issued new rules governing police and jail interactions with federal immigration officials and immigrants.

The purpose of the immigration directive — which some critics have derided as obstructing federal immigration enforcement — was to ensure that immigrant communities did not fear working with police. An driving force behind this new directive are studies showing that transgender people tend to be uncomfortable turning to police for help and that transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming people are more often victims of violence when incarcerated.

A recent study estimated that more than 30,100 adults in New Jersey identify as transgender while about 4,000 teenagers in the state identify as such.

“No one should be afraid about interacting with police because of their sexual orientation or their gender identity,” Grewal said Wednesday in a prepared statement. “That is why our law enforcement community, which proudly includes LGBTQ officers among our ranks, is committed to building trust with our LGBTQ residents.”

According to the LGBTQ Equality Directive:

— Cops cannot ask about a person’s sexual practices or anatomy unless it is necessary for an investigation.

— Cops cannot publicly reveal a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity unless there is a “proper law enforcement purpose” or the person agrees.

— Cops have to address people using their chosen names, even if those names are not on official records.

— Officials have to treat transgender people the way they would treat all men and women during body searches or when people are being segregated in jail.

— At police stations, officers have to accommodate a request by transgender, non-binary or gender non-comforming people to use private restrooms if one is available.

— Also at police stations, police cannot deny transgender people access to prosthetics, bras, wigs, undergarments, chest binders and cosmetic items.

The directive also governs police investigations, preventing cops from considering someone’s gender identity or expressions as ground for a reasonable suspicion or as evidence of wrongdoing.

Police, for example, would not be allowed to question or detain someone if he or she used a restroom that the officer knows was consistent with that person’s gender identity or expression.

Cops also would not be allowed to question or use “invasive search procedures” to determine a person’s genitals or assign gender.

The directive requires all 21 county prosecutors to educate the public about the directive and calls on all law enforcement agencies to work with LGBTQ organizations and community leaders “to maintain a dialogue about issues affecting transgender individuals.”

I would quit before kneeling to the LBGQT loons.

Gurbir?

Link?

Do you have to find a transgender cop to search them?

If you put a he/she/it in a cell with a female and he/she/it rapes said female, then you get sued.

If you put he/she/it in a cell with males, then you get sued.

Sorry. I should have included it. I added it to the end of the post via edit.

Good grief! What's next...each officer gets training and is supplied with a portable 'safe zone' in case one of the sick little pukes get all weepy? This bizarre fascination with all manner of gender switching is straight from the pit of hell. Poor bastages will regret their mommy supporting this insanity.

I just sat through 3 fucking hours of this bullshit last night.
Mandatory Supervisor Training.


The first 2 hours weren't bad- suicide awareness. Helpful, especially with a rash of officers killing themselves in the past few years.

The last 3 were some touchie-feelie leadership training given by some idiot that couldn't lead ants to a picnic. All about the hugs.


The middle three....
I would rather one of you use a nail gun on my scrotum for 3 hours than endure that crap any longer. I pray they don't let that "woman" (At this point, I don't know what to call "it", I may get in trouble!) anywhere near children. The complete and utter bullshit spewing from it's pie hole was insane.

At this point, I'd like to thank Para and all of you here for giving me an escape. I was on S/F for about half the time, the other half I spent surfing Ruger 10/22 prices.


FWIK, there's a survey in my work email...
I'll also post my survey here on the Sig Forum.
This one aught to be fun!

Well, it is New Joisey, after all.

And the insanity continues to spread like wildfire. I seldom go to town other than to workout at the fitness center, the occasional trip to Lowe's. Once in a blue moon to a Chinese restaurant for buffet lunch.

My brother is a retired cop up in Idaho, and I am very glad he no longer has to deal with this insanity.

Here is a word that can be applied.

gen·der·queer
/ˈjendərˌkwir/
adjective
denoting or relating to a person who does not subscribe to conventional gender distinctions but identifies with neither, both, or a combination of male and female genders.
"the genderqueer community"

noun
a person who does not subscribe to conventional gender distinctions but identifies with neither, both, or a combination of male and female genders.

I am so glad I left New Jersey twenty years ago.
At this point, with all that has happened to New Jersey since I left, I have no desire to ever go back except to visit family and friends. I would go only for the least amount of time possible to keep family happy.
When I was living in New Jersey I was a volunteer firefighter(technically still am). I had a lot of friends who were and some still are police officers.
Knowing them I can only imagine what they must be thinking.
I have a friend who is a Chief of police and should give him a call.

Can you imagine trying to run a detention center in New Jersey

Next, they will be adding audio devices across New Jersey to automatically fine people for the use of "inappropriate" language and labels...all of this sounds strangely familiar...

Coming from New Jersey doesn't surpize me much. Fuckin loonies.

I predict that the number of arrests and bookings will decline substantially, because no sane LEO will risk doing one under those restrictions. There is no way that those rules can reasonably be applied, and no one should even try. Can the Police Unions fight this?

Find a job somewhere else if possible; if not, resist as able. Vote the lunatics out.

I never knew, and I don't want to be enlightened.

You either have a dick or don’t....it’s that simple. The in-betweens, they are mental at some level. And we as a society should have locked them up or put them on meds...

Liberalism …...Americas cancer.
