    Don't worry, teachers, you too can have the State of Florida threaten to strip you of your teacher's certification for showing a Disney movie during class. Nothing to fear here! And shocker, it appears one of the Moms Against Liberty clowns is behind it.

    What is it that the teacher didn’t understand about “Don’t Say Gay” in a Florida classroom?!?!?!

    This is not some super secret, hidden mystery. There is no subtlety. They want to silence and censor every semblance of lifestyle they abhor.

    Mainly they don’t want tranny and homosexual teachers to talk dirty to little kids.

    Maybe the teacher believed all the Republicans saying the law wasn't really about "Don't Say Gay"?

    Besides, we're often reminded the law doesn't actually say " Don't say gay".

    just another law, just another set of consequences that weren't thought through. I suspect that the law will be used to punish opposition while not being enforced on supporters. still unclear on who is supposed to be verifying that every company greater than 25 people are using everify

    'Everybody is in a panic': New right-wing Florida bill threatens 'huge crisis' for industry (msn.com)

    "From farming to construction, the law is expected to have a wide-ranging impact on a number of industries vital to Florida's economy," said the report. "Some farm workers are already too scared to go to work and are considering leaving the state, which could cause a huge staffing crisis for Florida agriculture."

    Among other things, the bill institutes new state-level penalties for transporting undocumented immigrants to Florida, imposes new requirements on certain companies to check immigration status, and renders out-of-state driver's licenses issued to undocumented immigrants void in the state.
    ........................
    "'I've been hearing that probably they will not be sending their kids to school, and they are afraid to go to work, and it's sad,' Denise Negron, the executive director of the Farmworker Coordinator Council of Palm Beach County," said in the report.

    "'This is the people that we have to thank because thanks to them we have food on our tables,' Negron said. 'Agriculture and farm work is a job that nobody wants to do.' During a Thursday fundraiser gala for the Farmworker Coordinating Council, Negron said she worries for the organization's future as they work to provide social and human services to farm workers."

    Let’s go easy on him. The right wingers are having a hard time these days, and pointing out more and more mistakes being made by their leaders is almost impossible to defend without going off topic.

    I can’t justify how anyone would continue to choose to defend him anymore at this point. In before simpleton “Florida is great! People keep moving here in droves!” response.
