Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick wants Texas to replicate 'Don't Say Gay' law, per campaign email

Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick wants Texas to replicate the controversial “Don’t Say Gay” Florida law and regulate school libraries during the next session.

In a campaign email as part of his reelection bid, Patrick said such legislation will be a priority for his office. The email came late Monday after he laid out roughly 80 priorities that he wants lawmakers to study before the next legislative session.

In the email, which begins with a tirade against Disney, Patrick wrote he was angry with the company because it pushed back against the Florida law, which he characterized as mandating “schools cannot sexualize children in elementary school.”

“I will make this law a top priority in the next session,” Patrick, a Republican, wrote. “This issue will be addressed in our interim Education Committee hearings under Parental Rights.”

these people are obsessed with perversion and abuses of all types and desperately want to believe someone else shares their sick thoughts.
