DETROIT (AP) — The Michigan Supreme Court on Wednesday ordered all judges to address people in court by the pronouns they use or by “other respectful means.”
“We serve the entire public and are required to treat those who come before us with civility and respect,” Justice Elizabeth Welch said. “The gender identity of a member of the public is a part of their individual identity, regardless of whether others agree or approve.”
The statewide rule was approved, 5-2.

This is what happens when wannabe mini-tyrants who are mentally ill and delusional are placed in positions of authority.
Purging of conservative justices to commence in 5...4...3...2...1...
MY pronouns are ‘Your Majesty’ or ‘Your Highness’, but I will accept ‘Your Grace’ in informal settings.................
This is easy to get around, simply do not use any pronouns when referring to these idiots. Use their full names only..............
Pure, unadulterated insanity.
5-2. Is it any wonder the 20 election challenges hit a dead end at the Mi SC in 20.
Judges are supposed to be smart. This bunch doesn’t know what “identity” means - who you are, NOT who you THINK you are.
Your identity is unchangeable. It is the same from the moment of your conception throughout your life.
Words have meanings.
This is the only way.
If Trump is elected, I hope he deports all these commie “jugheads” in black robes before he starts on the illegal aliens.
Yeah....Calling Mary, James is as stupid as the pronouns. The only way to overcome is HUGE name tags.
Like "Hey, you"
Welch is attempting to make it sound like sex is something one can arbitrarily choose, on the sperm (Hah! I kill myself!) of the moment.
Regards,
ladies, gentlemen and all fairy things, please rise for his highness, the judge.
Good news for me, should I ever visit Michigan and get in trouble with the law. Because my preferred pronoun is “master of space and time, and a darn good dancer”.
Judge, old way: What is he charged with?
Judge, new way: What is the master of space and time, and a darn good dancer charged with?
In all seriousness, awhile back I was reading an article about this female singer who prefers“they” instead of “she”. So the article said things like “Then they did a medley of Taylor Swift songs.”
Who is “they”? Some group? It got so confusing that I stopped reading, and put on an old episode of “Leave it to Beaver”. That always calms me down.
On the continuum of speech there is free speech, censored speech and compelled speech. The latter is the worst of the three, although censored speech should never occur. Revolutions are fought over censored speech. I’m not quite sure what should occur when there is compelled speech, but it should be worse than revolution.
This justice bitch needs to rot in prison until she is dispatched to the eternal reaches. There is ZERO room in America for compelled speech.
I remember having to go to traffic court some 40 years ago, and when the judge entered the court everybody stood up except my lawyer. He said, you don’t have to stand for that POS, he’s a worthless judge and doesn’t deserve respect.
And he was right.
Indeed.
That is right, I’m sad to say.
My thoughts exactly.
