    Folks shouldn't leave their kids with @AroundTheWorld , they are too interested in what your child's genitalia is. They disguise their intentions as something like "I just want to protect the kids from the mutants", but really they are trying to determine what's in those pants.

    @AroundTheWorld never forgets a kid

    @StupidMoniker wonders why Congress cares so much. Don't they have other more pressing issues?

    Nothing the Republicans pass on a party line vote in the House is going anywhere. I would prefer Congress do this than pretty much anything that would actually pass and be signed into law by President Biden. Partisan gridlock is the best I can hope for.

    Correct me if I am mistaken, but were you the one pointing out how much liberals posted over such a minor issue? I would think passing a bill >>> posting in regards to a minor issue.

    I don't get why there is so much hate for transgender women.

    It's interesting that transgender men seem to also get a lot less hate directed towards them. But something about transgender women really triggers people.

    Apparently “small government” is legislatures spending time passing bills that they themselves know won’t become law just for virtue signaling.

    For him... Disagreement and unacceptance.

    And honesty.

    I think when you have this many bills trying to suppress anyone, it can be construed as hate. Personally, it does not affect me one bit if someone identifies as something else, those children have parents and I would never try and interfere in the parenting of their children. Good Lord, doesn't the government have some potholes to fill or some REAL bills to pass........so much time wasted on such silly things.

    From the article:

    It's not just Florida. As of Thursday, the American Civil Liberties Union is tracking 467 bills the group considers anti-LGBTQ that state legislatures around the U.S. introduced this year. A few dozen have already been signed into law, more than previous years. Others won't go anywhere.

    And the notion that children need a poster in a classroom that says "thou shalt not kill" is so hilarious and provides a insight of how things so obvious aren't so obvious to right wingers.

    I don't know. Maybe America's right wing needs posters on the wall reminding them killing is bad because they never discovered empathy.

    Unacceptance =/= hate; Acceptance =/= love

    Acceptance of existence of another is the first step in empathy.
