So proud of my home state

Proud? As a conservative, this is a huge mistake. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This will go to the courts. It will be defeated.

.... and the Republican state representatives who wrote and sponsored this legislation know damn well that it won't hold up in court. It is a transparent attempt to pander to evangelicals. It's purely for show.

Why? Because you are more attracted to the ones we're banning today?

Yes, I am also against murder, I guess that makes me a closet murderer. You guys need to think through your arguments a little more before presenting them in public.

No one is seriously predicting it to withstand judicial scrutiny. It is meant to put Democrats on the record defending the indefensible. As such, it is going to do exactly what it is designed to do; to highlight the differences in the two parties.

Sounds like a huge waste of legislative time and money then.

Freedom of expression is indefensible?

This legislation is just more hollow Republican pandering to evangelicals.

The differences in ideology are pretty obvious already. Using a bill that stands zero chance of holding up in court solely to rehash those differences is a waste of time and money.

We would be better served by people highlighting the similarities for awhile.

If it won't pass the courts then what is the indefensible part?

??? I didn't support Trump.
Voted for Kemp in the primary and told everyone, continually, that I would take a Kemp/Warnock win, over an Abrams/Walker win by a long shot.

In case you referring to Abrams.

God! You let a few dozen kids into a show where the performers are jiggling their giant prosthetic tits while dry humping santa, and everybody loses their mind!

Drag Queens: We're gonna thrust our bulge into children's faces and dry hump the grinch doggy style!

Republicans: No. Drag is banned.

Democrats: Why would the Republicans ban Drag performances?!?! This is bigotry!!!

It is stupid that Republicans are banning drag, but this isn't happening in a vacuum. The LGBTQ lobby has been forcing the Overton window to the left non-stop for decades. Some people have had quite enough. Overreaction is a natural tendency to despicable acts whose intent is to define new social boundaries of acceptable behavior.

I've got no issues protecting kids in schools from such. They are still minors at that point. School is purely for academics and should not contain force fed social stances one way or the other. It's the parents decision how to raise and what to influence their kids with. When the kids turn 18, they can make their own deicsions. I don't condone that lifestyle, but I don't govern another person's life choices anymore than they do mine. Legislating social issues beyond school walls is tricky ground whether you approve of it or not.

I have no similarities in common with a prominent wing of the Democrat party who wants to normalize taking minors to sexually explicit drag performances. And then they have the AUDACITY to claim we are the ones being divisive???? We just wanted the normal basic human decency recognized by every human society for 6000 years that the sexualization of innocence childhood is an abomination.
They invaded OUR culture, not the other way around.

That isn't true in the least. Read up on the Romans and most civilized people BC and well into AD.

I have, extensively. Such things happened plenty; but they are linked to moral depravity even by the historians of the time. Emperors such as Tiberius were criticized soon after their death and their perversions were included as proof of their unworthiness. The ancients knew of such practices; but they never condoned them
