Last I checked the cops and courts enforce the law, and traditionally, they’ve not been great at accepting things like pronouns.
Like I pointed out this wouldn’t need to be a law unless there had been egregious instances of people’s pronouns being ignored and people being deadnamed. Who releases mug shots? Cops. So this is a law aimed at cops.
And you’re really acting like “it won’t be allowed” when cops are conservative scumfucks and the ones who will be taking down the pronouns? Give me a break, they’ll let it fly and it will end up in court for two years before anything is done about it.
If you have your mugshot taken you have bigger issues than someone calling you by the name that’s on you ID and everyone except your social circle identifies you by.
