Florida: State Settlement Allows Teachers to Trannify Kids If It’s Not Part of “Formal Instruction”

Whoops!

Looks like Red Ronny’s entire anti-tranny agenda was just a big spectacle for the media, and Florida kids are all going to get turned into trannies, just like in every other state.

What a worthless fat scumbag.

Gender identity and sexual orientation can be discussed in Florida classrooms as long as it is not a part of formal instruction, a legal settlement says.

The settlement, announced on Monday, clarifies the scope of a controversial state education law, but left it standing.

Plaintiffs had challenged Florida’s 2002 parental rights bill, arguing it could marginalise LGBT youth.

Both Florida officials and the plaintiffs claimed victory on Monday.

Roberta Kaplan, the lead lawyer in the lawsuit, said in a statement that the legal settlement provides “much-needed clarity” and “represents a major victory for the many thousands of LGBTQ+ students, teachers, parents, and their allies throughout Florida”.

Florida Governor Ron Desantis’s office called it a “major win”.

“We fought hard to ensure this law couldn’t be maligned in court, as it was in the public arena by the media and large corporate actors,” said general counsel Ryan Newman.

The Parental Rights in Education Act – dubbed by critics as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill – initially prohibited classroom discussion and instruction about gender identity and sexual orientation in kindergarten through third grade in state public schools.

The plaintiffs challenging the law argued its vague language would have a chilling effect in schools and lead to confusion about what teachers were allowed to discuss with their students, including things like sharing details about their family lives.


One of the main plaintiffs was a dyke rabbi called Amy Morrison and her dyke “wife”

Mr DeSantis, a Republican, has claimed critics deliberately misrepresented the law.

Now, the settlement clarifies that the law “restricts instruction on particular subjects (sexual orientation and gender identity) not mere discussion of them”.

Allowed under the law are “incidental” references in literature to gay or transgender people or same-sex couples.

It would also not restrict “lines referring to LGBTQ issues” in musicals, “dancing between persons of the same gender” at school dances, or references in a classroom to a person’s family.

It doesn’t apply to library books not being used in instruction, and it allows students to participate in extracurricular activities like joining a school Gay-Straight Alliance.

You’ll find, in fact, that everything Republican politicians do amounts to some kind of goofy stunt that has no actual effect on anything you care about.

If you just look at the trajectory of the country over the last three decades, when Republicans have controlled the government for about half of that time, you can clearly see that these people are all completely useless.

Nothing is ever fixed.
