They don't teach Pythagorean Theorem to 4-9 year olds either. Doesn't mean the idea is banned, it's just implemented at age appropriate developmental and educational milestones. Transexualism and gender fluidity are advanced sexual identity and preference concepts that don't belong in any prepubescent teaching environment.
Right. And the vast majority of educators know that at the "duh" level.
What y'all are advocating for is the substitution of state law for local common sense.
This sets a bad precedent for the day a Democrat is in the governor's office
Apparently the liberal tears between now and then are worth state encroachment.
Not for me.
Teachers say they're not doing this now. You think they wouldn't do it because nobody with common sense would do this.
The Florida law prohibits something that teachers aren't doing anyway and have common sense enough not to do. seems like there is no harm, no foul. What is the state encroachment when an activity that is not happening is prohibited.
The legislature passed the bill so I'm not sure what a Democrat governor can do.
I'm sure we'll see examples. And those examples will then be written off by the Mithras as one offs, every single time. And since the accused will be labelled groomers by the Canons the result will be a culture wars battlefield because some gay teacher mentioned that he spent the weekend celebrating his marriage anniversary to his husband. Or something else else equally benign/heinous, depending on which jersey you wear.
I taught with teachers who kept photos of their spouses in the classroom. If some Kanon gets her parental rights worked up over a same sex spouse's photo, you know the courts will consider it disparate treatment if only the gay photos get yanked.
If you think straight Christians will not be affected you are dreaming.
Edit. I know there are examples of it occurring now; what I have said (and had distorted) is that up to now these were handled at the local level by and large. It is ad absurdum to make a comparison to murder. We have always prided ourselves over "local control" of schools, it's why school board elections are a bigger deal than RRC elections.
The proverbial slippery slope fallacy.
Using extreme and absurd examples to prove your point don't prove your point.
Your argument makes no sense as usual.
What's "as usual" here is your failing to understand liberty concepts.
Enjoy your forced pronouns when the state turns blue.
“Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.” (The Law, p.6) Frederic Bastiat
