DeSantis Backs Criminalizing Taking Kids To Drag Shows

Florida Politics reports:

Following outcry over viral videos of a Dallas Pride Month drag show aimed at kids, Gov. Ron DeSantis says he is looking into preventing bringing children to such shows.

Rep. Anthony Sabatini, an outspoken right-wing Republican who is running for Florida’s 7th Congressional District, called for an “emergency Special Session” on the matter, citing “Pride on the Block: Drag Show for Kids,” advertised for West Palm Beach last Sunday.

Asked about Sabatini’s call during a news conference in Fort Myers Beach on Wednesday, DeSantis said the state may already be able to target drag shows for children. “I’ve asked my folks to look,” the Republican Governor said. “We have child protective statutes on the books. We have laws against child endangerment.”

DeSantis has remained silent on the Canadian teenager arrested this week for terrorist threats against the above-cited Pride event.

As I’ve previously reported, far-right state Rep. Anthony Sabatini has vowed to become the “new MTG” should he win his US House race.
