    Let's put this post into context. Disney engaged in political speech to criticize a law passed by the Republican Governor and Legislature. So those Republicans retaliated against Disney by taking away a benefit conferred by law. The authoritarians have used the Constitution as a diaper again.

    I wouldn’t say a vast majority support it. Some polls say they do by a slim margin, others have people opposed by 60%. However the point is it’s a superfluous law that’s vague and poorly written, and makes it illegal to do something that’s already against the law. Further, parents can sue schools over anything, and they have.

    The preamble of the bill says “classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity.” In the bill itself it says “classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur.” So is a discussion and instruction the same thing? Most people I believe would say it isn’t, but the bill doesn’t differentiate because it doesn’t define the words discussion, nor instruction.

    You say this like the 2 things are linked. Will it be easier to accomplish the whole socialist s--- hole thing if the electorate is comprised of more transvestites? I did not know that.

    Do they have snakes? Bet they do but it doesn’t count if they’re not poisonous.

    I wish people like you had that outlook on life. If that was actually your philosophy, you wouldn't be ranting about some conspiracy where liberals are trying to turn kids into "trannies." I look forward to your forthcoming rant about the "gay agenda."

    He isn’t serious. Since he came back he has been a new man. Almost like someone coopted his avatar.

    No rant, I actually have zero problems with gays or transgenders. What I dislike is it be forced on those that do not accept the lifestyle. I shouldn't be labeled a criminal because I don't want to join in calling you by a pronoun or I don't believe transgenders should be able to compete in the sports made for a specific gender. That is my beef.

    I would have more money in my pocket in a Christian Iran then a venezuelan transgender utopia.

    It's not a "lifestyle." So you don't have to worry about anybody forcing you to be gay or transgender.

    Wide margin of voters support key element of Florida sex education bill, poll finds

    I’ll find the other poll that is larger.

    I can assure you i'm serious.

    You and I are actually the same, we both dislike the direction the country is going. It's just we disagree in the direction On that we are polar opposites.
