So, every kid just needs to go to the school administration and say they are gay.
Carruthers claims, however, that “there is no hidden agenda” and that this is about advocating for parental rights. She claims it is not “anti-LGBTQ” and that “nothing can be done these days without offending others.”
No, you’re right. It’s not a hidden agenda. It’s very open that you hate LGBTQ kids.
What parental rights are you advocating for here? I didn’t realize they couldn’t talk to their children in your state or that kids had to tell them every single thing about themselves! I’ve been parenting wrong I guess letting my kid have some privacy about things.
Does the school admin share their emails with the public? I have parent rights to know what they are talking about from an admin level that affects my child. I guess I also have citizenship rights to know what my tax dollars are doing. I mean, we care so much about everything being open, right? RIGHT?!
If you want to know if your kid is LGBTQ+, respect them as humans when they're growing up and don't be trans- homo- etc-phobic. They'll tell you at some point.
If they don't tell you, take a long hard look at yourself
I don’t think the problem people own mirrors.
The fact that these people value meanness and cruelty and bullying really tells you a lot about them. Never forget to rub that in their fascist faces.
There’s nothing a bully likes less than facing the consequences of their own actions. And because all bullies are cowards, it’s usually the best way to force them into retreat.
Sadly, the DNC has forgotten how to stand up to bullies because they got bought out by the friends of the bullies.
Does it force staffers to out congressmen? I wonder how things would change if that were slipped into the bill?
Friends of bullies are just a group of bullies.
Carruthers claims, however, that “there is no hidden agenda” and that this is about advocating for parental rights. She claims it is not “anti-LGBTQ” and that “nothing can be done these days without offending others.”
Why even do this in the first place?
It must be nice to live in Ohio since it seems they don't have any other pressing issues to deal with.
“nothing can be done these days without offending others.”
If everywhere you go smells like shit, check your own shoes.
If everything you do offends someone, you are an offensive person.
I agree. The amount of people trying to play victims from thier own decisions is out of control.
It's about time we give Ohio to the yogurt.
... I need an explanation there
In the Netflix show "Love, Death, and Robots" there is an episode where a lab makes a sentient hivemind microbe colony and it lives in a bowl of yogurt.
The US ends up exchanging the entirety of Ohio for a plan on how to solve most economic and societal problems. The US dosent listen to it and shit gets worse, the yogurt then builds a starfleet and fucks off.
The show itself is a bunch of sci-fi short films all done by different studios, "Zima Blue" is fantastic and my favorite is "Night of the mini-dead".
