    How is a handful of drag queens doing something nice for kids "going out of their way"? You realize those aren't drag shows, right?

    At least you're not denying it's happening. You are denying the motives.

    I can't deny something that you just made up and provide no evidence for. Your "position" is indistinguishable from flat earthism.

    I'll remind you of my original statement which is obvious to anyone who's paying remote attention.

    Children don't seek out drag queens but drag queens sure seek out children audiences.

    How many drag queens go read books to people in nursing homes?

    Except children do go to drag shows without being specifically invited. Your side has been wetting their britches about that. And, yes, drag queens are visiting care homes. You'd know that if you'd actually bothered to search before posting.

    You might be able to find an isolated case of drag queens in nursing homes but I doubt it. To the extent that you can it will be very isolated.

    Children don't take their self to drag queen shows. Their woke parents abused them in that manner.

    Trying to confuse children in their developmental stages like that is child abuse

    And you are welcome to have that faith. I see no evidence of actual abuse.

    Hmmm....So, the Government is now the morality police........

    How big of a problem was this in Montana that they had to write a law to ban it? Do they have an unusually high concentration of drags in Montana? If so, I wonder why that is the case. Truth be told, the representative says they have never been asked to read in drag at a school, so the law criminalizes something that has never actually taken place. They might as well create a law which criminalized space aliens from reading to kids.

    They argue they created the law because kids should not be exposed to sexualized content, and yet at the same time the law says absolutely nothing about content (or any kind), it only criminalizes the dress of the speakers.

    Did you know that all the founding documents and books of "queer theory" all spent more than half of books advocating for pedophilia? It is true and even the few honest leftists still around openly admit it.

    Listen how the Antifa loons get completely get owned about basic facts even from another radical leftist who they tried to cancel for daring to tell to truth.

    You mean the radicals who want to abuse government power to stifle free speech and freedom of expression? I concur.

    I bet you think it's pretty clever and witty to try to pretend that I'm saying the same thing that you're saying.....

    So very clever... So very full of wit

    Why should an entire group of people be banned from reading to children in a voluntary event with parental consent because they are wearing the wrong type of clothing?

    It’s strange that the same people worried reading to kids is causing them to become trans are the same people trying to push religious symbolism in schools and attempting to replace in school counselors with religious chaplains. Which organization has to carry pedophile insurance again?

    Y’all are exposing your agenda

    The DP left wholeheartedly supports Drag queen story time. Such crap fires them up to vote democrat to save the trans kids or some such nonsense.

    drag clothes in front of children is “basic individual liberty”?

    Wow. You really have no standards at all huh?

    So you’re mad they banned something that isn’t happening anyway? But if it was happening then you’d be okay with the ban? Which means you only view it as an assault on liberty if the act isn’t happening, in which case it’s an authoritarian attack on nothing?

    What a bizzarre twisted line of illogical thinking.

    You can just say the quiet part out loud already: you want drag shows in front of kids, you think that’s an acceptable form of expression and you don’t like any policy that prevents that from happening even on public grounds.

    beating around the bush with after hours this and voluntary that is such time wasting BS.

    Define “drag”. Is an Oman wearing a suit in “drag”. Is a man wearing traditional clothes such as a Sulu in “drag”?

    I'll be adding this to the list of where the Republicans are busy with all kinds of legislations to controle the minds of people / cut down their freedom.

    This has nothing to do with less poop on sidewalks, less tolerance of drugs.
    A government punishing a male for wearing a dress, is like a religious police of Saudi Arabia hunting down women who are not covered up enough.


    Your idea of "We need more of this" undoubtingly includes tossing the LGBTQ of buildings.
