Realtor helps LGBTQ+ Texans leave state through ‘rainbow Underground Railroad’
KFOR ^ | 6/15/2023 | By Will DuPree

“I don’t feel like Texas is my home anymore,” Lewis said simply.

He ended up selling his home through a real estate service launched last summer by the Dallas-based broker, Bob McCranie, who sought to help LGBTQ+ people list their homes in Texas and then connect them with an agent in another state or even a different country where they’d like to go next. McCranie initially called it “Flee Texas,” but soon changed the name to reflect a broader group of people expressing interest in the service.

“What we discovered was we got so much response from other states that we decided to expand and become ‘Flee Red States,'” McCranie said Tuesday. “We’ve helped 27 groups of people so far get out.”

When someone goes to the website FleeRedStates.com, a message reads, “As LGBTQIA+ citizens in Red States, many of us feel at risk. Current laws are highly discriminatory against trans youth and their families. Our marriages, our families, and even our safety are at risk. If you feel the need to leave the jurisdiction of a Red State, let us help you sell your property here and connect with you an LGBTQIA+ or ally agent in a better location of your choice. We are licensed in Texas and we have affiliates in all 50 states and several countries.” People can share their contact information to create an account and start the process of connecting with a real estate expert.

“We’re calling it kind of the ‘rainbow Underground Railroad,'” McCranie said. “We’re trying to get people out quietly and get them to someplace where they feel safer.”

Texas acts to protect children.

The groomers leave.

Makes sense.

Is this what is called a “win-win” type of situation?

Nobody care who you sleep with, just leave the kids alone

Not good enough anymore. We have to validate and celebrate their lifestyles on top of that.

This is ridiculous, no one is passing any law saying an adult can’t be a transgender if they want to, they’re just passing laws to prevent forcing this nonsense on children. As well they should.

This “don’t feel safe” BS is just laughable.

Is is their position that Texas is in someway preventing them from leaving and thus they have to do it on the sly?

I’m sure most Texans are saying “good riddance”! And, “enjoy your trip to Oregon”.

Maybe more conservative Californians are arriving as leftists leave the state. However, this is not going to help the left’s plan to “turn Texas blue”.

What a pussy.

That does not matter. He is doing the residents of Texas a great service by assisting in the departure of people who do not want to be there. And maybe should not be there.

It's a win for everybody.

I bet more gays are moving to Texas, then away from it.

Why are they trying to “get people out quietly”, no one really gives a damn if you move somewhere else, shoot they might even help you pack.

Has to set up his little island of virtue signaling to show how compassionate and empathetic he is.
Another waste of oxygen thinking he is special.

Sounds like an opportunistic real estate agent to me.

Someone in Texas needs to get this fag as much funding as needed to remove as many of the freaks as they can, as fast as they can.

When they’re self “deporting”, you absolutely must do whatever you can to assist. This is a Win Win for all involved!

Hey, Bobbie, just send them all to the south and west sides of Chicago where Winter’s great and they’ll have the nicest neighbors.
