    You’d probably do better to teach him to hide deep deep in the closet and learn how to present as cis. Otherwise he's: going to live life as a target just like every other LGBTQ person in America. Being comfortable in one’s skin isn’t particularly helpful for remaining safe when the Republican hate speech fueled bullies come into one’s safe spaces and start firing guns indiscriminately.

    His son says he's a progressive greenie, his actions say he's crazy. Damn Republicans!

    Texas creating trans registry?

    https://www.texastribune.org/2022/12...er-texas-data/

    if this is true, it is perhaps one of the most frightening things I’ve read. No data is secure these days.

    Agreed, I do not like this action.

    The scary thing to me is that Texans keep re-electing these same guys and the politics there are one of the main reasons we are not in a hurry to move back. I just don't get the governor and AGs obsession with trans individuals.

    Interestingly, there doesn't seem to be any written request for this information anywhere within the state government. Weird!

    Who’s a progressive greenie? The club Q shooter? The one whose dad was relieved that his son is only a mass murderer but not a fag? The one who had posted tons of maga screeds online? Is that the guy you’re claiming is a greenie?

    Republicans are more likely to be like the head of the NY college republicans who, at a recent event with Marjorie Taylor Green, channeled his inner-Goebbels, saying that they were in favor of total war. But I guess he had to outdo Green, who at the same event said that if she had been the traitor in charge of invading the capitol on J6 they would not have failed at overthrowing the government.

    Not to mention their obsession with women's reproductive rights.

    xhttps://news.yahoo.com/texas-republi...175000784.html

    "The Post reports that Texas Republicans are preparing to introduce a bill for the January 2023 session that “would require internet providers to block abortion pill websites in the same way they can censor child [sexual abuse material].” John Seago, the president of Texas Right to Life, the state’s biggest anti-abortion group, told said the effort would target Aid Access as well as pharmacy sites not run by medical providers.

    VPN, anyone?

    No, I was thinking about the other guy you ranted about, the one who visited the Pelosi home in his underwear. I must have become confused at your cadre of favorite Republican/Republican influenced baddies.

    And, I didn't claim he was a greenie, his son did, I was just passing it along for your consideration.
