So I know that fascists think anything to the left of fascism is left-wing, but NPR is pretty centrist. And more importantly, they're accurate. You can cry and wet yourself all you want, but the quotes they use actually do come from the bill. National Pinko Radio Centrist? I guess you think THE VIEW is centrist as well. NPR is a hard left tabloid with almost ZERO facts and plenty of socialist propaganda. As I said before, the bill is purposely vague so that parents can sue teachers and librarians over anything they deem "inappropriate." And in addition to this, the right-wing establishment is regularly lying about grooming, in an attempt to mobilize their dipshit voters. You obviously think child pornography (or showing pornography to children) is appropriate. And you seem to think it's okay for teachers to commit sex crimes. And if you have so little respect for Florida voters, DON'T MOVE HERE. Stay in your dipshit blue state and leave us alone. As it is, blue states all over the place are VOMITING the last of their taxpayers to Florida because they're sick of the high taxes, high crime, shitty schools and crimes against children. Stay OUT of Florida if you want to live in a shithole. Our voters are the best educated people in the country. Your last post just proved that.

I don't doubt it. The United States has a unique quality about it. That sort of thing is illegal and is punishable by prison. A lot of illegal aliens violating our borders bring in their own child to sell in the sex trade. The United States is several cuts ABOVE THAT, except in certain blue states where a newborn child or an abortion survivor could be killed legally by his/her doctor.

NPR? Seriously? (This is why everybody says liberals are so stupid. They trust left wing opinion rags like NPR) Discussion points: 1. The word GAY is NOT in the bill, so NPR and the rest of the left wing biased opinion rags are LYING. The bill is titled PARENTAL RIGHTS IN EDUCATION LAW. (I'll bet you didn't even know that.) 2. Who in the system is better at determining AGE APPROPRIATE than the professional school teacher. Certainly you left wingers don't have a problem with teachers assuming children are "age appropriate" for sick drag shows, (which is a sex offense, by the way.) https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2022/05/12/pennsylvania-school-is-in-hot-water-for-hosting-drag-show-for-kids-n2607149 Or is it you ONLY want teachers to indoctrinate the young skulls full of mush on homosexuality, lesbianism, pedophelia, bestiality, and other unnatural horrors? Florida teachers are more concerned with academic subjects like math, reading, writing, history, geography, civics, the arts, etc. 3. The kindergarten book about the kid having a pair of queer men as fathers is NOT age appropriate. It is political homosexual indoctrination. Kinda funny that children have lived for GENERATIONS without having that thrown in their faces. Florida has said NO to trying to convert Kindergarten through Third Grade to homosexuality. Teachers at those grade levels just need to do their jobs and educate children on the important subjects and leave the political and transsexual indoctrination to the inferior blue states, who are currently graduating !diots. 4. Governor DeSantis and the Florida Legislature represent a majority of the citizens of the state of Florida. We are diverse and mostly well educated. That means we are NOT left wingers. We have the right to protect our children from sex crimes. A teacher indoctrinating a first grader into homosexuality is a sex crime.

It is an argument against attacking the United States Constitution just to appease a small bunch of left wing goose steppers. Look at the FACTS: There is no Constitutional right to commit rape, commit murder, commit a car jacking, commit a mass shooting at a public school, etc. Our legal system is set up to capture and prosecute the animals who commit those crimes, and put them in cages when convicted so they can never harm the public. There IS a Constitutional right to bear arms. And THAT is the price of living in a free society. A law abiding citizen has the RIGHT to own a gun, but he/she also has a responsibility to follow the law taking out the trash when he/she is threatened. Criminals are not going to obey new (or old ) gun laws. Disarming law abiding citizens who only want to protect themselves is just plain stupid.

Your comment is bullshit and it is based on ignorance. Read the bill and show us FROM THE BILL how it somehow is a DON'T SAY GAY bill, or admit you're WRONG.

Let's see some evidence. Gun grabbers, SHOW US how criminals will suddenly begin following the law, just because you pass another law.

Read the goddam bill. There is NOTHING in it that comes CLOSE to what you lying retards have been saying.

Your federal Civil Rights Act would be unconstitutional in Canada. We in Canada have a different way of protecting minority rights. That part is simple. It's so frikken COLD there that minorities move south. Canada doesn't have any minorities. In Canada, we do not have a federal education bureaucracy. Each province decides how we teach our children. In Canada, we have no federal HEW. In America, the COUNTY makes most of the education decisions. Our Department Of Education is the greatest waste of taxpayer dollars in history. Indeed in Canada, we do not have a federal health bureaucracy. Probably because patients who need surgery (emergency or not) wind up coming to America to avoid the wait. Canada's socialist health care system winds up COSTING a lot more and helping a lot fewer people.

I don't get the connection.

Actually, the Civil Rights act (as well as the Republican Party's efforts to attain the vote for women) is all in the last century. Democrats are helping ordinary CRIMINALS vote illegally and more than once.

I don't see where you're getting Detroit or Chicago not being America from my statement that if Chicago is stupid enough to elect another Democrat, it deserves every bit of misery coming its way. And I don't get how this somehow relates to whatever "self confidence" I might have. I'm just an other typist in this artificial atmosphere, where we ALL start out as equals and are judged ONLY on our ideas, since that's the only part of us that exists here. I'm not a real person here. There's no place in this box to take a shit. I have the same form as everybody else.

You are a child, with less than a child's brain. If you want to refer to the entire concept of Christianity as BS and fantasy, such religious bigotry is no surprise. But in terms of the birth of the SON OF GOD, the Bible refers to it as a VIRGIN BIRTH. Maybe the SON OF GOD magically materialized on the night of his immaculate conception. The BIBLE does not give any details that would suggest the VIRGIN MARY was pregnant. It's okay if you do not want to believe the Bible, or the Torah, or the Koran. There's room in the world for those who are not religious. Nobody has ever said the Bible is a science book. It (and the ENTIRE concept of religion) is based on pretty much the same concept as the Climate Change nuts rely: FAITH. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_birth_of_Jesus#:~:text=The virgin birth of Jesus is the Christian,it rests on very slender historical foundations. The virgin birth of Jesus is the Christian doctrine that Jesus was conceived by his mother, Mary, through the power of the Holy Spirit and without sexual intercourse.[1] The narrative appears only in Matthew 1:18–25 and Luke 1:26–38,[2] and the modern scholarly consensus is that it rests on very slender historical foundations.[3 AGAIN, boys and girls, nobody is suggesting this is science. The Bible had over 70 different authors and was written in a language that largely is no longer used today, (Aramaic) This is ALL based solely on faith. If some children want to turn the miraculous virgin birth of Jesus Christ into pornography, it only proves there are some real sick fux in the world, most of them on the left.

I take it you never read the Bible. Jesus Christ, the SON OF GOD, was the product of immaculate conception. His mother was considered the VIRGIN Mary. Last time I checked, virgins have not had sex.

Urban areas attract more welfare bums and criminals. They tend to be more liberal. Rural areas are more family oriented, more common sense and logic.

You can call them whatever you want. What you shouldn't do is pretend you want to have a rational, non-partisan discussion about ideologies. Is it even possible to have an HONEST discussion about ideologies without being partisan? That's like asking if it's possible to live when a heart stops. And I don't see a problem with bringing in ideology and personal political views. Nobody is here at this forum for any other reason than to discuss partisan politics. If you start with a conspiracy minded position that is driven by right wing denial of the science on the subject, you don't instill any confidence that any other subject broached will be treated any differently. The science says that the climate of the earth can change. It has changed in the past. But it is a nutball left wing fairy tale that human activity in the United States alone (since none of the climate nuts mention China) can change the climate of a planet that is mostly WATER. No real scientist is vomiting that nonsense. But there are plenty of left wing foundations PAYING pseudo hacks to say otherwise.

I think Rush Limbaugh said it best. As far back as the early 90s, most of America would laugh its ass off at some nutball liberal ideas. He became a multi millionaire and the most popular radio talk show host in history by laughing at the dumbass stuff liberals do. And he noticed that the laughing is dying down and the liberals are getting even bolder. Liberals have always been whacked out. I'm pretty sure that in 1990, you weren't hearing about how American fossil fuel use (since NO liberal has mentioned China) is going to cause the climate of an entire planet to change. We would have been on the floor laughing our asses off. :Liberals today are getting more and more whacked out. If anything, mainstream conservatism may be embracing more libertarian concepts: more market freedom; take a closer look at victimless crimes; less use of our military overseas, etc. On that last point, Trump was a textbook libertarian. Mainstream conservatives views on abortion certainly have become more moderate.

I prefer the scientific approach. The climate changes. It has changed on the Earth long before Homo Sape appeared. There is no disputing that fact. And regardless of ANY human activity, this planet could easily sink into another Ice Age and wipe out a good chunk of the human and animal population.

I think it's worth separating "Conservative" and "Trumpie". A lot of people who previously identified as "Conservative" could never get behind Donald Trump and his brand of politics, and these folk have very different attitudes from the ones that did. In some ways that is very true. (The Never Trumper movement began at FoxNews.) THE DONALD for most of his life was a Democrat. He contributed to Democrat political campaigns, (mostly just to buy them off so they'll leave him alone.) A lot of mainstream conservatives didn't trust Trump to not swerve to the extreme left, once elected. Two years into his administration (with plummeting gasoline prices, the record BEST economy of all time, peace in the Middle East) most conservatives have come around. They still are put off by Trump's language and his Limbaugh-like swagger. But most of us recognize that he was a better president than ANY Democrat in history. I'll ignore your personal insults and limit my remarks to the subject of the thread.

No point if you are going to change the subject every time you are triggered by facts.

Mainstream conservatism (the philosophy of most of America) has hardly flown further to the right. Mainstream conservatism IS the logical melding of logic/common sense with fairness/sympathy. The far right has more in common with WokeLeft wing nonsense. They both rely on identity politics, rather than truth, logic and reason. Mainstream conservatism has always been about free market capitalism, liberty, the rule of CONSTITUTIONAL law, and equal rights and opportunities for all. That part hasn't changed since the William F. Buckley, Ronald Reagan, Rush LImbaugh days.

Why are you so triggered by the scientific phrase "climate religious." The phrase is factually correct. The Climate Change nuts base their wrong opinion totally on FAITH and zero on actually fact and science.

Why does "climate religious" trigger you so much? It's just a phrase based on science and fact.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/desantis-florida-cut-funding-crt-dei-programs-wither-vine DeSantis says Florida will cut funding to all CRT, DEI programs: ‘wither on the vine’ Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday unveiled new legislation taking aim at critical race theory and diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in state colleges. The Republican governor debuted the higher education proposal at a press conference in Bradenton. He said the reforms "must be grounded in actual history, the actual philosophy that has shaped western civilization." "We are also going to eliminate all DEI and CRT bureaucracies in the state of Florida. No funding. And that will wither on the vine," DeSantis said. Critical race theory, or CRT, is a framework for looking at U.S. institutions – particularly in the legal and educational realms – through the lens of racism. Legal scholars developed CRT in the 1970s and 1980s in reaction to what they regarded as the lack of progress following the Civil Rights era. You all pretty much have an idea of the racist CRT nonsense. DEI? https://www.foxnews.com/media/florida-university-adopted-radical-dei-programming-segregates-students-race-critic-claims Manhattan Institute Senior Fellow Chris Rufo posted on Twitter that the University of South Florida adopted a DEI program he says "segregates students by race." "The University of South Florida has adopted radical DEI programming that segregates students by race and promotes the idea that white students should think ‘I feel bad for being white’ and ‘it's not my fault I’m white’ as part of their ‘racial identity development,’" Rufo tweeted. USF is located near Florida's BLUE-EST city: Miami. Talking points: 1. Do you approve of SEGREGATION 2.Why should a white person feel ANY guilt about his/her color? 3. Has there been NO progress in racial justice since the REPUBLICAN LED Civil Rights era ?

Where in the Bible does it say that Joseph was cuckolded? Where is the evidence that someone other than him had sex with his wife? She was supposedly a virgin when she gave the world Jesus Christ. Why do you hate the truth?

Not a new idea. Around the late 80s, early 90s, Rush Limbaugh informed us about a Jesse Jackson plan to raid pension funds to pay for infrastructure spending. Rush said that pension funds were the only TRUE wealth that existed and was otherwise protected. And these SAME Democrats who would not allow private Social SEcurity accounts (where each worker could actually INVEST his own FICA) have no problem with a money grab based on Woke policies.
