“Joined by Michigan gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon, a group of House Republicans on Thursday announced a new bill that would empower parents to sue public schools that expose their children to drag shows,” Bridge Michigan reports.

“The six legislators were unable to name an example of that happening in a Michigan public school, but they proposed allowing parents to sue districts for up to $10,000 if it ever does.”

1. How about a bill allowing parents to sue districts for compulsory prayer?

Asking for a Friend. And a Mennonite. And a Brethren.

3. People like you need to file suit when they shut down your prayer or deny you access because you

Don’t pray like them.

2. High school drama groups better steer clear of Shakespeare's comedies. Nt

4. Not really.

What they really want is for the rest of us to attack drag performers, or teachers, or women, or gay people, or anyone else they decide to “other”. Sometimes, I think they publicly single out certain groups as a signal to their minions (I don’t want name them…think capitol attack crowd) on where to direct their attack. I have seen a couple videos recently of some of those guys attacking drag shows. Same thing happened (maybe different target) last summer, summer before, summer before, summer before…

They lost their damn minds when they saw so many people that were not black out marching for Black Lives Matter. Now we have gone and celebrated the appointment of a (gasp) black woman to the highest court in the land.

They are desperate to put a stop to any attempt at unity. Remember how they ridiculed Barack Obama as a community organizer? Yeah, they hate that shit.

Power to the People!

5. They trade in emotions like disgust. And when they don't have an example

to point to, they make it up.

7. It's all about keeping us apart.

Unity equals progress.

Tyranny hates unity. We must fight for human rights.

8. +100

6. These people really need to find lives for themselves.

9. Once again, they are in search of a problem that does not exist.
