Well do you care if minors are exposed to sex?
Do you believe that kids can be sexualized for adults?
If not, then WTH are you defending this?
Oh, i agree.
Lets see...
How many child gun deaths from firearms last year? 4300
How many children killed by drag shows ? 0
It was advertized for adults.
Well played.
Not when they are sex acts exposing children.
Traditional “rules” no longer apply.
So you believe Florida conservatives should become the Florida liquor license Nazis.
I have zero problem with it.
The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation warned the Hyatt Regency Miami against hosting a “sexually explicit show with children present,” but the hotel did anyway, according to a statement from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ office.
“Therefore, the Department is revoking the venue’s license for the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages,” the statement adds. “Sexually explicit content is not appropriate to display to children and doing so violates Florida law. Governor DeSantis stands up for the innocence of children in the classroom and throughout Florida.”
“[P]erverted versions of popular children’s Christmas songs” were also played at the event, including an adaption of “All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth,” the complaint states. The song contained a “portrayal of oral fellatio” and the lyric “I’ll sit on his lap, he can put his milk and cookies all between my gap.”
During the remixed song “Screwdolph the Red-Nippled Reindeer,” attendees heard the lyrics “You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen Vomit and Stupid and Dildo and D***s-in…” and “Then one soggy Christmas Eve Santa came to say ‘Screwdolph with your nipples so bright won’t you guide my sleigh tonight,” according to the Florida department.
The complaint accused the hotel of violating Florida statute.
“Exposing genitals in a lewd or lascivious manner and simulated sexual activity are inconsistent with the prevailing standards in the adult community as a whole with respect to what is suitable material for children under the age of 16,” the complaint states, adding that the hotel violated the statue by allowing the performance.
And yet children were brought to it and this violated a Florida law.
If a bar lets in children and it is against the law, then it is responsible.
After the venue was warned against having children at the event, promotional materials were updated to include a disclaimer that the show was “recommended for audiences 18+,” but the admission policies still allowed for children to attend if accompanied by an adult, the complaint states.
As a result, minors attended and were knowingly admitted,” the complaint states. “During the Show and in the presence of persons less than 16 years of age, performers appeared on stage wearing sexually suggestive clothing and prosthetic female genitalia.”
The department added that on the screens behind the performers, videos were displayed of “exposed female breasts with less than a fully opaque covering, portrayals of simulated masturbation, and other sexually explicit content.”
“[P]erverted versions of popular children’s Christmas songs” were also played at the event, including an adaption of “All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth,” the complaint states. The song contained a “portrayal of oral fellatio” and the lyric “I’ll sit on his lap, he can put his milk and cookies all between my gap.”
Drag shows don’t kill children (at least not yet), but they do harm them. Yet, unbelievably, there are those who truly don’t believe that fact ... or, rather, in their sick minds they decide to ignore it as hurting children provides too much pleasure for these pitiful souls.
“The complaint accused the hotel of violating Florida statute.“
If revoking the liquor licence is a remedy under Florida statute, I fully support the action.
Florida is punishing the Hotel for violations of State Law, they were warned and did it anyway. Throw the book at em.
Are you saying Florida should ignore the State Laws? Are you saying the pervs should be able to get away with this activity in regards to Children? Are you aware that most states have laws regarding contributing to delinquency of minors. Are you saying this doesn’t rise to that? Inquiring minds want to know.
And because the left tried to strip us of our livelihoods if we didn’t take an experimental drug, bonus points for Desantis if yanking a liquor license puts a leftist out on the streets.
“Throw the book at em.“
If taking away their liquor license is in “the book” (FL statute), I agree.
You really can’t be that dense, can you? The hotel is not losing its liquor license for hosting a drag show. It is losing its license for hosting an event that exposed minor children to lewd and lascivious activity, which is illegal in most states. They could have hosted all the drag shows they wanted without any consequence if they had left the kids out of it. Freedom of speech and expression does not cover providing children with pornography or exposing them to sexual performances. If you think it does, you may be a libertarian but you are not a conservative…
So in your opinion, there should be no regulations associated with holding a liquor license? Anyone should be able to get one and no one should ever lose one? Or do you just believe there should be no requirement for a license at all?
I know that.
X-rated content apparently is okay for children to see as long as an "adult" is with them while it corrupts their minds.
Apparently not.
Unreal we have people defending this kind of insanity on this forum.
