The party of small government

It's just one of several modern versions of satanic panic used to distract the dummies while they fleece them.

If enacted, I'm guessing the main effect of this would be to make "meow" the new standard greeting among a large fraction of the student population in Texas high schools.

Using a litter box for the passing of stool, urine or other human byproducts

They put that in the law because they want people to think it actually happens.

It reminds me of the time that a proposed bill outlawed "critical race theory" in schools, which it defined (in part) as teaching that present-day white people must feel guilty about past slavery. But nobody had ever taught that.

Lots of students with verbal communication issues about to be illegal. As are students with artifical limbs or organs or even glucose monitors. Also who gets to decide this: "other than behaviors or accessories typically displayed by a member of the homo sapiens species"?

Jesus Christ, someone buy these guys a fursuit already. I'll chip in. We can do a GoFundMe.

Hey DOGE, these are the dumbasses wasting taxpayer money.

Goth girls wore collars when I was in high school, before furries were a thing.

The party of small government and personal freedoms.

Obviously, they were talking about their personal freedom to dictate the freedom of everyone else.

Okay, obvious queerphobia/freedom of expression issues and "how are these malignant societal tumors still on the debunked litter box thing" aside... Do none of these idiots remember that children often role play as animals because they have imagination and they are children? Have they even met children?!? Pretty sure "horse firefighters" or "we're all evil cats today" etc. are a common type of game played at recess or whatever. They have nothing to do with being a furry and everything to do with just regular human development? Are these people really paranoid and threatened by childhood make-believe games?

I think we're running into a phase where Republicans are proposing laws based on shared boomer facebook posts and the like rather then actual concrete issues.

Eggs are like $9/dozen.

I'm PROUD that they CUT my Child's Lunch and Teacher's salary so they could focus on THIS!

Students who bark, meow, hiss or make other animal noises that are not human speech

The cow says "you're under arrest".

I love how there's exempt days. You can dress up like a furry once in a while as a treat.

If nothing else in my life, it does make me feel powerful how fucking afraid of me that republicans are.

Artificial, animal-like ears Other physiological features that have not historically been assigned to the human race through a means of natural biological development

Great outrage in the anime community following catgirls ban.

I bet they classify homosexual behavior as not part of normal homosapiens behavior.

But licking oneself or others for the purpose of affection is still fine, right??

This seems to be like a recent moral panic here in Finland about therian kids in schools.

A grown ass man had to write this for the express purpose of stopping kids from playing at school.

Stan Gerdes what the fuck is wrong with you dude? Who hurt you?

That means these are illegal now too:

collapsed inline media

As well as goths/punks wearing collars. Both of these are things I did in high school, and I’m not a furry. This is so dumb.

Lol most furries are plane engineers or somthin so they're angering the wrong ppl

Is this happening so often that it requires a law?

Why not put that money, time, and effort into providing sexual education so people better understand how to not get pregnant, reducing the occurrence of abortions?

yo they can peel my chokers from my cold dead hands

You have to laugh

So does this mean no more Christmas plays about Jesus, where the kids dress up for the manger scene as donkeys and camels? Or will there be a "special exemption" for that?

I find this law hilarious. And incredibly dumb. Hilariously dumb. Maybe spend more on education and childcare. There's always going to be the "wild child" in school.

And that's why Sen. Stan Gerdes had all those URLs in their browser history!

GOP is against the thriving mascot community!
