    Yes. This is just one salvo in a coordinated attack on children

    The thing the criminalized (drags reading books) never happened in MO, so the 'salvo' is imaginary.

    BUT......THE CHILRDEN..........THINK ABOUT CHILDREN...........

    That war cry is one of the oldest in the books, and a textbook "appeal to emotion", but in the past it has been employed almost exclusively by liberals.

    They're "teaching" kids to turn into gay transvestites.

    It's happened in many other places. Does one buildd to build fortifications before or after being attacked?

    let's look at this issue several ways. what is the purpose of a drag queen in drag reading to children? is there an agenda behind that? is it an agenda that parents can rightfully object to? I doubt anyone would object to someone who say performs in drag reading to children while dressed consistent with their gender. In fact, I'd have no issue if say a primary school teacher is a drag performer-ON their OWN time.

    I agree, the question I ask is merely this-what is the motivation for a dude to read to children while dressed (and usually provocatively) as a dame?

    Yes, Mild Bill's right. We should allow AR15 armed militia members to read to kids.

    It never happened, so I guess they didn't see a purpose for it. However, there IS an agenda to criminalize something that has never happened.

    You claim to be libertararian, but you defend governments creating laws only to support populist agenda.

    that's nonsense. I don t think it's wrong for parents to complain about what appears to be a woke agenda being pushed on children. tell me-what is the purpose or need for guys dressed as girls reading to children.

    It's only an issue if it is actually happening, which is why I asked where this was happening. I'm going to have to assume it isn't actually an issue is just another rightwing boogeyman.

    well if drag performers aren't reading to children-it's not an issue then.

    Who said parents said anything? Why would they complain about something that never happened there?

    So, why do you, as self identifying libertararian, defend governments creating laws only to push populist agenda?

    Should they create a law to criminalize people reading to kids in KKK outfit? If you support this, then surely you support a litany of laws to criminalize all kinds of outfits.

    You, your neighbor, democrats, republicans, or anyone else in KKK outfit.

    How about Spanish, - the language of the illegal aliens. Criminalize reading in Spanish?

    You should do the research before making bogus claims.

    That wasn't what you claimed. You are shifting the goal posts. And it shouldn't be illegal for a drag queen to read to a child if the child's parent is fine with it.
