DeSantis weighs ordering child protective services to investigate parents who take kids to drag shows

The Florida governor's comments were prompted by viral videos of children attending a drag show at a Dallas gay bar Saturday.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suggested Wednesday that he might urge the state's child protective services to investigate parents who take their children to drag shows.

When asked by reporters whether he would support proposed legislation from a Florida state representative that would punish parents who take their children to such performances, the governor said he has asked his staff to look into the idea.

We have child protective statutes on the books," the governor said. "We have laws against child endangerment."

“It used to be kids would be off-limits. Used to be everybody agreed with that,” DeSantis continued. “Now it just seems like there’s a concerted effort to be exposing kids more and more to things that are not age appropriate.”

The debate over whether minors should be allowed to watch drag performances began Saturday after videos showing young children attending a Dallas drag show, and tipping performers with cash, emerged on social media.

Anything to deflect from the Insurrectionist hearings going on. DeSantis has proven time and time again what scum he is.

so, basically, parents are not allowed to decide on how to raise their kids? wasn't that their argument for banning LGBT propaganda in schools?

I don’t understandddddd I used to be right wing because of this precisely, but then 95% of right wingers want to micromanage every citizen, USSR 2.0 control if they could,  so I dipped the ideology; i can’t stand hypocrisy.
a nice example: There was this republican pro trump YouTuber lady who was typical enraged trumper murican.. once she denounced GOP for hypocrisy on big government controlling woman’s bodies (she’s pro choice) (saying what u said) she got backlash from her fan base, gop, and of course Fox News.. :saladga:
