Tampa Pride Festival Canceled After Florida Cuts Off Access to Children
Breitbart ^ | 22 May 2023 | Hannah Bleau

The Tampa Pride on the River event has been canceled due to the series of anti-groomer bills passed by the Florida legislature and signed into law by Gov.

It’s so blatantly clear what they are after, and it is as
disgusting as it gets.

Throwing the book at them?

Frankly, if they are involving children in this, the courts
should throw the Library of Congress at them.

Don't waste time fighting the culture war, they said.

The people who say that are all fags, trannies, and abortionists.

Glory hallelujah, another Pride parade down the tubes!!

These were always about grooming children, corrupting and confusing them, a tool to be used as a means of recruiting them.

Ever notice how drag queens never go to retirement homes to read books? 🤔

We’ve always known that their target audience is children, and now they are confirming it.

You can’t have a pride event without a sexually explicit drag show?

Pretty much the same law Russia has...which is why the Neocons are trying to start WW3 against them.

Can’t be a groomer, if the target audience isn’t present.

This is what is normally referred to as, “Tipping your hand.”
