Elton John says America is going backward with ‘disgraceful’ anti-LGBTQ+ laws
WaPo ^ | June 20 | Story by Jennifer Hassan

Posted on 06/20/2023 8:57:26 PM PDT by RandFan

British singer Elton John has criticized anti-LGBTQ+ laws in the United States, saying that “it’s all going pear-shaped in America.”

“We seem to be going backwards. And that spreads. It’s like a virus that the LGBTQ+ movement is suffering,” the Grammy-winning singer said in an interview with the United Kingdom’s Radio Times.

John, 76, singled out “laws enacted in Florida” as “disgraceful,” adding: “It’s a growing swell of anger and homophobia that’s around America.”

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed a slate of new anti-LGBTQ+ laws last month that will take effect July 1. Doctors will be allowed to deny patients care based on their moral beliefs, while the use of preferred pronouns will be banned in public schools. A law that prohibits gender-affirming health care for transgender people under the age of 18 is already being enforced, The Washington Post reported earlier this month.

John has less than a month left of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour, the star’s final farewell before he steps back from the limelight to spend more time with his family, including his sons, ages 10 and 12. The farewell tour was meant to end in 2021 but was delayed because of the coronavirus pandemic and hip surgery he had in 2021.

Yep. They have reaped what they have sewn. Elton still doesnt understand …. Leaving children out of their unnatural advocacy would save the LGBTQPs alot of trouble.

“...And that spreads...”

It spreads like the HIV/AIDS does among filthy degenerate homosexuals.

Normal human beings don’t care what ADULT homosexuals do between themselves, it is another matter entirely when those same degenerates go after children.

The pushback has been long coming. It’s time for moral people to go on offense and do everything possible to protect children from the clutches of evil sodomites (like Elton John).

If Elton John is complaining about the direction in which we are going, we can safely know that we are on the right track.

If a gay person gets a speeding ticket, is this considered an anti-gay action.

If it wasn’t for Bernie Taupin, Reg would still be playing Happy Hours at The Ramada Inn.

I like Elton John as a performer, but alot of that genius came packaged as Bernie Taupin.

You are correct of course.

They have only been successful at it because they OWN the media and have for decades.
