(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) The Florida state legislature has passed an ‘anti-grooming’ bill to stop LGBT activists from pushing young children towards sexual deviancy, ArcaMax reported.
In a simple act, the legislature banned the teaching of sexual politics from Kindergarten to Third Grade. Leftists found this proposal preposterous, and dozens of Florida gays showed up to protest the vote, chanting “We say gay! We say gay!”
“It’s upsetting that we are failing [younger kids],” said Elizabeth Klamer, 18, an aspiring activist and student at Leon County High School who attended the student-led protests in Tallahassee.
The bill passed by a vote count of 22-17 in the state’s Senate.
Sen. Dennis Baxley, R-Ocala, the bill’s sponsor, claimed that the bill will inhibit leftist “social engineering,” by which they encourage students to come out as gay or transgender.
“My question is simply, are we encouraging this, or illuminating it by putting emphasis on it?” Baxley said as the bill was discussed.
“We know there are social inputs to how people act and what they decide to do, so that’s part of our concern for the well-being of our kids.”
Meanwhile, Democrats denied the plausibility that forcing young children through hours of sexual training could cause them to adopt certain views on human sexuality.
“Do we really think that teachers are engineering students to become gay?” said Sen. Tina Polsky, D-Boca Raton. “It’s preposterous.”
The bill now goes to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has expressed his support for it in the past.
“How many parents want their kindergarteners to have transgenderism or something injected into classroom instruction? I think those are very young kids,” DeSantis said last week.
“I think the Legislature is basically trying to give parents assurance that they are going to be able to go and that stuff is not going to be there.”
