There’s around 1.8 million public school elementary school teachers in the US. One tenth of one percent of those would be 1,800. Feel free to share when you can hit that mark (0.1%) of that many instances of elementary children being “groomed” to “turn gay” or “transition” in the public school setting. Otherwise you’re trying to legislate a solution to an imaginary issue (also known as fear mongering). I realize the right has to keep its voters outraged over something to keep them marching lock step in line, but regardless, I’ll be waiting on pins in needles for your data rather than “probably in a school near you”.

THIS right here.
This is how this country fell to the levels it has. Laziness and procrastination. Passing the buck.
"Let's wait until EVERYONE has been indoctrinated before we try to fix the system."
"Who cares about scientific and medical protocol... let's wait until people are nearly dying to treat symptoms."
"What can it hurt to let Congress be immune to prosecution for check kiting and insider trading? It's not like they're all abusing the system. It's just a handful."
"Let's just go to war without assessing the will of the people, and making our representation vote on it. Our government couldn't be wrong."
PRECEDENT is the problem. It IS what you ALLOW the .0001% to get away with that leads to larger problems. How can ANYONE not have a clue about this?
If you take guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens, but leave them in the hands of criminals, it doesn't hurt the criminals.
If you refuse to sentence criminals to harsher punishments, they no longer fear being caught, and no longer fear committing crime.
If you allow 1 person to abuse another physically, sexually, or emotionally without any repercussions, it doesn't just affect that one person that is abused. The effect is felt by all who see and hear about it, and who are affected by those 2 people going forward. It IS exponential.
Allowing 10 teachers to teach kindergarteners about sex and gender confusion leads to confusion among MANY over MANY years. ONE teacher may effect confusion and dysfunction in up to 90 children in one school year. 90 children will affect many more over the course of their schooling as they move through the system and nation.
The people who don't want to call it "grooming" may not like how predatorial and creepy it sounds, but that's a THEM problem. Predators don't like to be called predators. It makes the wool a little less convincing on the wolf.
