That’ll show them.

Like anyone cares if they don’t show up.

It’s like someone going on a hunger strike or lighting themselves on fire to make a point.

You are not hurting anyone but yourself.

“in that case take up knitting!!”

Well we know that they already are “Sock Tuckers!”
Or, “Cuke Sackers!” Also, “Coke Soakers!”

It is a relief to know that the East bay faggots will be absent. Stay home and don’t pollute Florida.

Great news, Oakland!

Florida legislators and Governor Ron DeSantis decided to can the politically charged “Don’t say gay” bill for a more friendly “Parental Rights in Education”.

In reality, the law doesn’t mention gay, homosexuality, etc. They might as well call it the don’t say straight bill. It simply keeps educators from promoting a political ideology to students and undermining parental authority over their children.

Ask not why your child needs to be exposed to perverts, ask why perverts want to have access to your child so that he gets used to them.
