Tennessee just passed a law banning public drag events.

Let's suppose a dude likes to wear (non revealing) female attire and do his makeup in a flamboyant fashion.

Would they now run afoul of the law? Surely it's a violation of ones rights to have the government dictate what one allowed to wear?

“You don’t give a flying f**k” about children dying

> "Because that's not what I'm doing," Dahm responded. "I'm defending the individual's right to keep and bear arms."
>
> Stewart countered by noting that Americans have to register in order to have voting rights.
>
> "So you have to register for a right. Is that an infringement?" Stewart asked the lawmaker.
>
> "Does the right to vote say 'shall not be infringed?'" Dahm responded.
>
> "Oh, so this is just a semantic argument?" Stewart retorted, to which Dahm quickly said "no, it's not."
>
> Stewart then accused Dahm of being a hypocrite, since he and many other Republicans want to stop children from seeing drag performances.
>
> "Are you infringing on that performer's free speech?" Stewart asked.
>
> "They can continue to exercise their free speech, just not in front of a child," Dahm argued.

> "Why?" Stewart pressed.
>
> "Because the government does have a responsibility to protect —" Dahm said before being cut off by Stewart.
>
> "I'm sorry?" Stewart interjected, pushing his ear forward as he waited to hear the word "children."
>
> "What is the leading cause of death among children in this country?" Stewart asked Dahm during the discussion.
>
> "And I'm going to give you a hint," he said, "it's not drag show readings to children."
>
> "Correct, yes," Dahm responded.
>
> "So what is it?" Stewart asked again.
>
> "I'm presuming you're going to say it's firearms," Dahm said.
>
> "No, I'm not going to say it like it's an opinion," Stewart said with indignation. "That's what it is. It's firearms. More than cancer, more than car accidents, and what you're telling me is you don't mind infringing free speech to protect children from this amorphous thing that you think of, but when it comes to children that have died, you don't give a flying fuck to stop that because that shall not be infringed."
>
> "That is hypocrisy at its highest order," Stewart concluded.

I've not heard of it yet. And I don't have a thing to wear. Plus need to get my hair done.

Sigh, drag protest season always requires a new wardrobe.

Yeah, he's funny and I hear people around here that talk exactly like him. I'm pretty sure his accent is affected, but he sure has it down.

Shit, I hope no TN state legislators see this. It'll either be like outrage dynamite or a couple of scandalous sex stories with multiple people being paid off and nobody knowing anything about any of it. That's how shit works here in the south. There's a paleolithic guy on LNF that knows all about this sort of thing..

At least TN hasn't blocked your ability to view it online "to protect the children" . . . yet.

Small world...I also was born in NJ. At the army hospital at Ft Monmouth. I even have the bill for my hospital stay (mom saved it) and it was something like eight dollars and change, a real bargain for a fucker like me. But about six months later I was passively taken back to where my parents lived before I got on the scene. But never mind that.....just to show anybody who cares, TN isn't all a bunch of lunatic dipshits, racist fools, and stupid old white guys trying to not be, here's some exculpatory evidence. The Tennessee Holler. Sounds like something I'd recommend, eh?

If they'd known what a wingnut fish slapping and stomping prize they had , they would have charged more.

College Grove, Tennessee, not far from billy.pilgrim's family's Middle Tennessee State University. Some of the best progressives can often be found where repression is the worst . . . unless they've been jailed, deported or killed.

Whew! The entire way from NJ to TN I was worried my mom would just toss me out the window, not wanting to have to deal with the menace she knew I was destined to be. It was a hellish nine hour trip on a bus with bad tires, a lecherous driver, and several shady passengers. I was worried the whole time but remained silent. Shit myself probably five times just to make sure they all knew I was an infant and abortion survivor. It was touch and go pretty much all the way.

But, yeah, you're right. Not everybody around here is nutso facto. Just look at me.
