    Yes drag queens are being invited into schools and are doing shows in public libraries specifically aimed at kids. Feel free to google around. I live in Tennessee near Nashville .. I havent seen a drag queen since I left Florida.

    I missed it. I've been able to keep my kids drag queen free. It's really not that hard.

    It sounds like they're targeting you or something. That sounds really unpleasant and not fair.

    You know I almost took you for a liberal who wasn't a condescending know it all who thinks he is smarter and better than everyone else.

    I don't play kid games which is what you are trying to do here. If you want to try to have a grown up conversation then put your big boy pants on and respond accordingly. Otherwise Ill put you on mute just like the other liberals on this website that I truly dislike due to who they are as a person.

    See you have it all wrong, my problem isn't with the trans or drag queens.. Its about people like you and channing crowder that push your idealogies onto everyone and anyone who doesn't accept your demands are the devil.

    So kick rocks squirt.

    Not smarter than everybody. Just self-made victims who try to justify hatefulness.

    You are clearly confusing treating people respectfully with "pushing an ideology." Hopefully you can figure that out some day. I have no "ideology" other than treating people kindly rather than judgementally.

    "Grown up conversation", you say? :)

    Im not playing a victim, Im calling people out for trying to dictate what other kids are exposed to. Like I said, you are just playing the liberal game and I simply don't put up with that chit. This place is an echo chamber for the left. I do not come here to change minds, thats not going to happen. I come and fight fire with fire. So yes, I stoop to your level and Im not ashamed of it nor do you or anyone else here matter enough for me to care about your opinions of me.

    Let me tell you Mr gatorjo incase you missed the boat. You are making an assumption just by me saying liberal people like to push this stuff on us. Not once did I say anything bad or degrading about trans people or drag queens themselves. So stop misrepresenting what I said just so you can play your little game trying to be clever and condescending. We are not friends, just stop it with the charade.

    FYI, Im pro weed and some other drugs, Im pro LGBT+, Im pro gay marriage, Im pro-choice... about the only conservative stances I have deal with money and guns. However, I truly and honestly do not like liberals as a whole because they act like you and others on here. You all are just simply unpleasant people to be around or conversate with. Conservative/Republicans are wrong on a lot, especially on the social aspect of things but they are genuinely easier to talk to and more down to earth. Simply put, liberals are not fun to be around and I'd rather spend time with someone whos wrong and naive about a lot of stuff rather than a stuffed up know it all that is combative and annoying.

    Now I know exactly who you are and how you like to conversate and I really don't have time to go around and around talking to a wall or explaining or qualifying any of the above about my views. So Im going to respectfully and kindly place you on my block list and as always - feel free to have the last word.

    Your posts speaks for themselves. I have nothing more to say on who is trying to dictate who's life.

    Strange that most of what was "written" about the Hawaii fire came from Twitter and Truth Social accounts, and the predominant conspiracy was about the World Economic Forum Boogeyman, villified by both left and right. However, account traffic has shown much of the false information has come from none other than Trump's good buddies in Russia and Biden's alleged good friends in China:

    LMAO still confused and wont answer the question. Very telling, very disturbing.

    Wonder why you wont answer the question. You will take your kids to a drag show but not burlesque? Are you anti-women or something?

    Because it's not relevant to the point. But fine, I'll play along. Yes I take my kids to drag shows every 3rd night. We go to Burlesque shows on Mondays. So now what?

    The right is passing laws saying I shouldn't do that and you claim the right isn't trying to impose their views and just wants to live their life in peace. The right doesn't get to legislate away how I want to raise my kids. Ludicrous.

    Wrong.
    The right get to legislate when the left has lost its collective minds as some choices hurt and negatively influence the greater society.
    We must draw the line somewhere.
    Either you lack the decency or basic good judgment to see this point….the left has crossed the line and that is where the govt unfortunately has to get involved.

    If you feel that way so be it. That's a different discussion. The right doesn't get to them bang their chest as freedom loving and just wanting to be left alone and not push their views on others. It's categorical epic bullshit and I'm gonna call it out every time.

    That is MY president. For all the hate he is given, maybe the best all around president for America in my lifetime.

    Chips act is bringing in huge investments not in just Blue states, but Red ones too.

    Infrastructure bill being used in Red and Blue states.

    I also note he didn't stumble once, didn't forget what he was talking about, didn't wander off .... etc.

    Really? Is anyone forcing you to be gay? Forcing you to carry a baby you don't want? Anyone forcing you to remove any mention of your heritage from school curriculums?

    Can't you see you have that exactly reversed? The Reds are trying to force their way of life on everyone else. The Blue are just trying to get people to accept their way of life as legitimate.

    Do you have any idea how small of a percentage of parents are taking their kids to drag shows? Like maybe 0.01%. But it is red meat to the Right as they try and say everyone on the left is doing it.

    If a person wants to take their kid to a story time with a drag queen, that is their right. You are the only trying to FORCE them to do what you want.

    But that is enough of the off topic chat for me. If you can't see that the Right is trying to force their way of life on everyone else, you can't be helped.

    Do some research.
    Hawaii is very left leaning the crew saying the rich did it to buy up the land weren’t just Pubs. Look up the stories about being part of the scheme.
