How Stupid Is Governor Ron Desantis?

[CobbVol]

Yes.

Local communities should be making decisions about what is taught in local schools.

If local school administrators are not making decisions that align with their local communities - they should be removed.

If local communities don’t want math taught, or have wild views on math - they will yield the results of those positions.

So, Governor Lee signed a bill that bans students and staff from using a bathroom that meets their gender identity in addition to a law that bans trans students from playing in sports that do not meet their biological sex. Should he not have signed these bills and let the local schools decide these issues?

 

[hog88]

We definitely disagree then.

A lot of people just don't understand conservatism.

Not the bathroom bill but the trans in sports bill yes since teams play all over the state against other schools not in that particular district.

Or libertarianism utopia.

Again, these were laws signed. Ban is a liberal gaslighting term along with tyrant and "Don't say gay" that people gravitate to. There is a difference.

Brother just admit that you aren't interested in any true conservative notion of freedom and want the gubmint to interfere with your life and everyone else's even more than they do already.. as long as you agree with how they interfere.

You've already expressed this several times without saying the exact words.

Let me know when we reach utopia where the only role of government is defense/protection.

 

[kiddiedoc]

They were still behind TN.

Nor from a practical standpoint. I'm certain that I went to the liquor store there without a mask.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Not the bathroom bill

Are there laws in the Tennessee Code pertaining to sexual assault/misconduct and indecent exposure?

I went to the liquor store without a mask too.

Lee left it up to the counties and cities, he didn't institute statewide rules for masking and schools like DeSantis did. Lee did screw up at the start by closing all the state parks for 2-3 weeks but that was about the only statewide action he took.

I'm sure there are.

Let me know when you stop pretending to not be a big government loving hypocrite. When the shoe is on the other foot you'll squeal like a piggy.

No offense to hog.

 

[508mikey]

Absolutely when it's removing choice from my life. Why does he get to decide what I can eat? What other life choices do you need the govt to make for you?

the type of vehicle he drives ( gas or electric )

 

[85SugarVol]

A lot of people just don't understand conservatism.

I don’t think many understand the basic concept of Liberty.

All about a little tyranny, if it tickles them.

those aren't mutually exclusive. conversatism has nothing to do with the level of tyranny. one could very easily be a tyrannical conservative.

You guys are the ones who started defining conservatism, not me. Saying he isnt conservative beacuse he is tyrannical. So you admit now that conservatism isnt some box.

He’s a big central government guy so how can he be a conservative?

Well, I can take a few random posters on this message board and get their opinion, or rely on people that rate this for a living.

These boxes are stupid anyways..There are degrees of ideology. We have all taken the online tests.

Even Mercy a dumb Gator who is also a socialist (according to 85Sugar) understands.

These are conservative groups that rate by signed legislation and policy, so are not subjective opinion of liberals.

Makes it more dangerous to rob but you do you.
