Why the f do you libs want to talk to 1st graders about sex and gender? Take the L on this and STFU.
Why the f can't you understand that we don't? Why is asking for a clearly defined law a bad thing? Speed limits are clearly defined. Drunk driving is clearly defined.

If we start from the proposition that little kids don’t need formal instruction about gender or sexual orientation from teachers, and if we were drawing up the law as Florida legislators, I would certainly entertain a discussion about clarity. As it is, the law says teachers are not to engage in instruction about those things. I don’t think a short contextually correct discussion instigated by a student such as “why don’t you have a husband?” is going to be construed as instruction. That said, I prefer people to err on the side of caution. It is not as if a single woman has to answer that very question by giving a history of all the selfish men she dated to give a child a short answer and redirect them to the agenda.
The counter is to define things into a corner so that there are a lot of arguments why behavior did not fit the language of the statute. The objective should be to be precise enough to have the law make the desired impact and not so precise to create definitional loopholes. We will see if the courts take issue with the word “instruction” as so vague that it could include a nondescript discussion generated by a simple question.
It’s kind of like the old joke about the small boy who asks his mother where we came from and she engages in a birds and bees answer to only have her son say, “that’s weird, Billy says his family came from New Jersey.” Teachers should engage kids with wisdom and respect for the parents’ rights to teach certain subjects how they wish.
Nice! Man I should move to fla.The Florida State Senate has spoken and soon Disney will be just another corporation in Florida and its special status removed. It is about 50 years past due.

So I will chalk that up to a vote for there is no reason it should be as vague as it is. Thanks for your contribution.the fact that a law had to be created in the first place shows just how effed up liberals are with children.
quit supporting ppl who molest kids, you say you don't, but you vote for the ones that do. that is how voting works. you support it. it's sick.So I will chalk that up to a vote for there is no reason it should be as vague as it is. Thanks for your contribution.
There has never been a law about saying you have a husband or wife if you are gay. Is answering that question adding sexual orientation to the curriculum? To some people it might be. That is why it needs to be defined.There are already laws and rules about boundaries in schools. How much more clearly defined should it be?
You probably supported Trump and he has those same allegations. You support it. It’s sick.quit supporting ppl who molest kids, you say you don't, but you vote for the ones that do. that is how voting works. you support it. it's sick.
all you have is "but Trump, and allegations"You probably supported Trump and he has those same allegations. You support it. It’s sick.

So aside from personal attacks, you have no logical reason as to why the law shouldn’t be more defined. You can be ok that a person can possibly lose their career and possibly go to jail simply because someone like you doesn’t like that that they said they have a husband. Based on the law as written, it’s only a matter of time til that happens. If you are ok with that then fine. We will just wait to see your reaction when it happens to a lady talking about her husband instead of a guy talking about his husband. You (and others in this thread) will be the first to lose their minds that isn’t what the law was for but wouldn’t give a damn if it happened to a gay guy talking about his husband in the same exact context.all you have is "but Trump, and allegations"
It's like liberals can't just come and say it's wrong to support the mutilation of preteen and teenage bodies, having tranny story time with 5 yr olds, letting boys in girls bathrooms and locker rooms, letting boys destroy girls sports, allowing grow adults discuss sexuality with 5 and 6 yr olds.
Like you can't just not support it? Or see how all of this goes together. Like how you vote for allowing it so you actually support it?
But Trump and something CNN said. that is your whole rebuttal.
How does saying, "oh that's my husband" ever going to be compared to the teacher using a book or having a lesson on gender identities? No matter how vague, that interaction will not be an offense worth firing. Stop being obtuse. Could it be worded better? Sure, what law couldn't be?So aside from personal attacks, you have no logical reason as to why the law shouldn’t be more defined.

I agree with some of your points, to be honest. The bill needs to be revamped to address perverted teachers/LGBT activists trying to mold young children to adopt a particular view of sex and gender. I’m not sure I agree shutting down any recognition of trans people is the answer, but the push for normalization of puberty blockers being used on children is a bridge too far, so I’m not sure how to get there and be fair to the kids that don’t fit in, but we have to address some troubling developments in society.I am neither a liberal nor a homosexual so I do not speak for them. But many of them have specifically stated that they oppose it because 1) it is a poorly written law with obscure language which could result in significant problems down the road for teachers and students. 2) The law appears to be targeted specifically as a tool to make any discussion of homosexuality or transgender appear to be wrong or bad. There are going to be K-3 students who encounter people who are gay and/or transgender. Why would we need to make it illegal to discuss why these classifications of people mean other than to specifically damage those classes. 3) There is no evidence to show harm which points to an unnecessary government overreach. Why is there new legislation to address an issue that is not an issue?
As for why it is an issue outside of Florida, it is because other state's will try to enact the same legislation with the same problems. Also, someone doesn't have to live in Florida to have empathy for the people who live there.
You have a lot more faith in the school system and people than I do or has been proven to be deserved. There will be someone that accuses a teacher of trying to teach sexual preference simply because they say they have a husband. You know as well as I do that someone is bigoted and stupid enough to do just that. The school system will then do whatever they have to do in order to cover their own ***. It already happens with laws and regulations worded better than this vague piece of legislation.How does saying, "oh that's my husband" ever going to be compared to the teacher using a book or having a lesson on gender identities?

Strange, huh? When the corporations adopt more traditionally “liberal” social views, they seem to encounter less pushback on things like fair wages, benefits, work conditions, and more. What if that was the plan?It’s fascinating how liberals are now all about slavery to global corporations. Did not see that coming 15 years ago.
All teachers have to say if questions persist is, "hey how about you ask your parents(grandparents.. whoever)." It’s the ones that are shown in the tweets that will be axed. I don't think c.y.a. will be required with the interaction you mentioned.You have a lot more faith in the school system and people than I do or has been proven to be deserved.

When I was in grade school, especially in 1st thru 4th grade, I don’t remembering any teacher telling us about their home life or private life. I just don’t think it is hard for a teacher to avoid engaging kids in such matters. So, I don’t have the concern you are expressing. But, I have no doubt some teacher will consider intentionally testing the issue.You don't think a short conversation will be construed as instruction but you aren't everyone and therein lies the problem. What you view as instruction may not be what Sally Jones down the street views as instruction which is different that what Bob Smith views as instruction. The problem is that 3 different people may have 3 different definitions of instruction so the legislature needs to define what constitutes instruction and this law doesn't do that.
Reckless behavior is not always clear. Crimes of passion that lead to lesser penalties are not always clear. Language cannot always make things as clear as the speed limit, because the behavior being addressed is not so linear.Why the f can't you understand that we don't?

Again you have more faith in people than they deserve. I’m not sure some in this thread wouldn’t accuse a teacher of teaching about sexual preference because a teacher mentioned their husband.

Do those counties get property tax revenue from Disney? I assumed they did not and that Disney was currently it’s own taxing district.This is going to be a fiscal disaster for Florida. There's $2 billion in current debt that will transfer to the taxpayers of Orange and Osceola counties to the tune of $2200 per household. The current tax revenue from those counties cannot support the Disney infrastructure. Reedy Creek existing saved Florida a ton of money.
And, then, if you parse out the examples of what is not instruction, then what is keeping a motivated person from setting up the situation to make their little instructional chat look innocent? Let’s just avoid personal life discussions with kids who are not our kids. None of us have to talk to others little kids who are supposed to be tasked to learn about our spouses or our private lives. This is not difficult.There has never been a law about saying you have a husband or wife if you are gay. Is answering that question adding sexual orientation to the curriculum? To some people it might be. That is why it needs to be defined.
Right. I don't remember my teachers, even in high school, talking about their private lives at all.And, then, if you parse out the examples of what is not instruction, then what is keeping a motivated person from setting up the situation to make their little instructional chat look innocent?

I knew every single one of my teachers spouses name. I knew their kids names. I remember them talking about vacations. It’s not that uncommon.Right. I don't remember my teachers, even in high school, talking about their private lives at all.
Disney does currently pay property taxes to the counties to the tune of around $300 million a year. No revenue currently collected by RCDI will be redirected to those counties when it's dissolved. It'll just disappear and will be kept by Disney. Taxes in Orange and Osceola counties are going to have to go up if they need to support the infrastructure of Disney World. They will have to pick up the tab on the infrastructure with zero additional tax dollars from Disney.Do those counties get property tax revenue from Disney? I assumed they did not and that Disney was currently it’s own taxing district.
"Grooming" is the new "socialism" among a certain subset of Conservatives. Strip scary sounding words of their meaning and accuse everyone who disagrees with you of being a pedophile or socialist.
Or, maybe, and get this: Floridians don’t really want some of the new social constructs that are being forced upon them, so their governor, for once, is actually doing something they want him to do.
Hardly, this is the liberal Pro Gay spin. Do you realize how big Florida is and how financially sound it is thanks to conservative leaders in our state. Disney World is a drop in our revenue bucket. Florida has billions in reserves. Billions. Florida made money during the pandemic. Florida has close to 22 million residents and if little Mickey left tomorrow most of these citizens would celebrate. The Disney Corporation does nothing for people who live here. They are much more trouble than they are worth.This is going to be a fiscal disaster for Florida.

Ok, but mental health treatment is expensive. The vast majority of people can't afford it. So what do we do? Right now it seems as though because of their sexuality they are being treated a bit like soldiers returning from Vietnam. I for one think love and kindness should prevail.If the vast majority of transgender teens were sexually abused, then why would anybody ever celebrate being transgender? Seems to me that would be like having a month to celebrate the wonders of PTSD from being in a war. PTSD is something you treat; not celebrate.
This is so ridiculous. You do not speak for all Floridians, or even most. I don't have any particular affinity for Disney, but they are an important economic engine in the state of Florida and, contrary to what you say, most Floridians don't want them gone. Can you imagine Florida or Orlando in particular with no WDW?Hardly, this is the liberal Pro Gay spin.

For 50 years the very liberal Orlando Sentinel has raised questions about the propriety of a company having its own government. Disney's vast media empire profited from the special district carve out. They were allowed to raise million in taxes. Democrats have always been against the concept of conceding government authority to any private corporation. Now all of a sudden liberals in the media are all up in arms because Disney will be like every other business in this state and all special privileges that creates millions in wealth for them is over. So now the media cries, How dare Republicans take away special privileges granted to Disney World, How dare they turned the existing world order on its head. How dare they treat Disney like every other corporation in our state.
What hypocrisy. Now Democrats find themselves defending the right of a multinational mega-corporation to govern itself over a vast area with significant human, economic and environmental impacts. A policy position that they have historically hated and opposed with vigor. But since it involves one of the liberals biggest supporters and funding machine they are opposed. You can't make this stuff up.
So Disney got a little too big for it's britches and cut it's own throat. Their stock is going down and the mothers and fathers of the youth of Florida are the better for it.
