    Critics sued the state, saying it violated the First Amendment.

    And taxpayer dollars, which Republicans claim to be such responsible stewards of, are being wasted to defend lawsuits like this.

        I don’t think it’s good to expose children to grown men in revealing outfits twerking in front of them while kids are encouraged to tuck dollar bills into the dragqueens shirt like a stripper. Which happens and you don’t bat an eye. Just because you’re sexually desensitized doesn’t mean it’s okay to expose children to it.

          Why are you under the impression that every drag show is like that? Drag story time at a library does not involve any of that.

            If I were to present an example of sexually explicit stuff going down at a children’s drag queen story hour would you change your mind?

                The answer is I’m not under the impression that every drag show is like that, but some definitely are and it seems like you people don’t bat an eye or self police in any way.

      You keep hearing about the GOP vilifying and persecuting LGBTQ+ people because it’s against the supposed ideals of the country and the GOP keep doing it. If you want news about LGBTQ+ issues to stop, you need to make the GOP stop.

        You are being distracted. Focus. You CAN eat your local representative. One bite at a time.

        People don’t need to know what is in the chilli at the cookout.

          Innocent people being villified, persecuted, attacked and oppressed isn’t just a “distraction”, it’s a serious problem that’s heading towards genocide.

          We can chew bubble gum and walk at the same time, by which I mean deal with this AND their other fuckery.
