Should Government tell parents...

If it is so clear to you, that it is a lie, I’m sure it would be easy for you to explain what about it is a lie? I will understand if you choose not to, and just makes a snarky response.

pretty easy......the investigation isn't about what parents may do with their children.......

Should government tell parents how to raise their children?



Governor DeSantis is "investigating" the Broward Center for the Performing Arts for allowing a touring performance of drag queens to perform at their venue. The advertisement said, 18 and up, unless accompanied by parents.

Gov. says the equated to "marketing to children."


Do you think the government should tell private Enterprise what type of artistic performances they can put on?

Do you think the government should tell parents what type of art they can expose their children to? If so, who gets to decide?

For all MAGAs handwringing about "freedom" they're the first to shit things down that make them feel "icky". They also don't like to talk about The Holocaust or slavery so they're wiping any trace of them from textbooks.

Such hypocrites.

I grew up watching British humor on PBS, and Benny Hill and Monty Python was all about men dressing up in drag, and I grew up a normal heterosexual, didn't make me want to dress up like a woman or become gay.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE REPUBLICAN HATE-MONGERING IDIOTS?

And that is exactly why the UK is so fucked up these days. Everything is always tested there first. ;)

You do realize there are adults only drag shows. Children are not permitted into these shows.

this was not adult only...over 18 unless accompanied by a parent ...there was a little girl in the audience if you listen to the video...this is a show on tour...
 
I never understood the draw of going to see a drag show in the first place. I wouldnt go if it was free, let alone paying a red cent. No interest at all, dont find it funny, cute, interesting,....nothing. I find it to be bazaar and weird,....thats it. No clue why anyone would ever want to go see that nonsense.

Again, these drag performances are for adults only, if a parent brings a child, that’s on the parent, not the performers. It’s like R movies, they are made for adults, if you allow your child to attend, that’s on you.

There should be no admittance for children... and they are not advertised as adult only... even the performers mentioned family-friendly if you listen carefully... so I imagine that's why there is an investigation as there should be....

Throwing the baby out with the bath water, trying to outlaw drag shows because some parents take their children is not a solution. You can advise them of content, like an R rating for a movie, but it should not be a criminal activity”, and ultimately left up to the parent on what they expose their children to in the form of entertainment.

I remember when people wanted music censored, and now drag shows, and yet, they/you voted for a man who liked to grab women by the pussy!

Apparently, there are lots of people who do. It is possible that you are not everybody. When drag shows come on TV, I change the channel. That does not mean everyone should.

Ive not seen many Maga types avoid talking about the mass killing of Jews in Europe. One,...we didnt do it,...it was the Nazi's in Germany. Two,...part of the reason our Dads and grand dads went to Europe was to stop the killing and liberate those still in camps. Maga types would never avoid talking about something like that,...in fact,....we are proud to.

I love drag shows! I find them very entertaining, especially the ones where the performers dress as celebrities! Thanks for turning the channel instead of insisting they be banned.

Agreed, but it does show how the far Right seeks to dictate to Americans what to think, what to believe and what to do.

IMO, most of this is RW fearmongering and manipulating ignorant and/or stupid voters who believe being LGBTQ is contagious.

Notice they don't want to address pedophiles in schools if the relationship is heterosexual. They only want to talk about the homosexual abuses.

A CREC middle school teacher in East Hartford has been arrested for having an alleged inappropriate relationship with her 13-year-old student.

An arrest warrant states that Two Rivers Middle School drama teacher Karen Vinick, 34, and a student were sleeping together under the same blanket at a school-sanctioned drama club sleepover.

The middle school principal reported the incident in June and Vinick was ultimately placed on administrative leave. She's since been arrested on Oct. 26.

Investigators obtained video of the two at the sleepover. The boy is seen placing a pillow and blanket next to Vinick and laying down next to her. Later on, Vinick can be seen putting her arm around the student, spooning him. Shortly after, Vinick and the student got up and left the sleepover, going to a classroom down the hall together, according to the warrant.

Sure,...I dont care. The point of my post is not what others do, I could care less. My point is that the shows have no interest to ME. Why would I give a shit if someone else wants to go watch nonsense? I wouldnt.

"A Texas school district's apparent suggestion to insert Holocaust denial materials into lesson plans to comply with a law meant to censor anti-racism teaching has sparked fierce backlash.

Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law earlier this year that is intended to combat the teaching of critical race theory. A recording obtained by NBC News captures an administrator from Carroll Independent School District—which serves the wealthy, predominantly white Dallas-Fort Worth suburb of Southlake—last week instructing teachers to comply with the new law by offering alternate opinions on topics like the Holocaust, despite mainstream views on the Holocaust not being opposed in any substantial or credible manner."

See the article above. Things have changed. The GOP also used to hate communism. Now they're working directly with Putin.

Sad, huh?
