High-heels, padded shoulders, and a pity pout ... is DeSantis running for president or auditioning for the lead in a "Sunset Boulevard" revival?

How many car insurance franchises offer collision insurance for golf cart DUI's? This is an amazing business opportunity.

They knew cops were infiltrating the show, so there was no dirty dancing with kids.

I didn't realize I'd mentioned anything about a fascist coup attempt
just touchy? or touchy-feely too

#11 | Posted by joesmyslavename

That's my point stupid. Why not? Why are you focusing on things that don't matter instead of things that do?

The agents were undercover and there is no mention in the report that their cover was blown. Making stuff up doesn't make it true.

Oh and here's something I found from the Miami Herald:

But while the agents took photos of three minors at the Orlando drag show " who appeared to be accompanied by adults " they acknowledged that nothing indecent had happened on stage

Taking pictures of kids without consent? Now that's creepy.

Six of the cops went back for the 11pm show once they were off-duty.

Phester, the child molester, is disappointed by the lack of "dirty dancing with kids".

in the 'clown shack' where John Wayne Gacy did what he did.

I suppose it could be a coincidence

what, it doesn't matter the man garnered 60+% in his last election.
I understand you dem virtue signaling perv apologizing antifa members are still reeling over hillary's loss to the orange turd and you know your boy biden could literally tip over at any given moment and then you'd need to try to justify harris...so it's 'a' strategy to impugn, rightfully or wrongly, desantis at every opportunity....but it's just so obvious that you and your ilk are just a bunch of partisan ball-washers, many of whom,I'm sure, have fetishists leanings.
but I may be wrong JMO

isn't that correct?
aren't you down for the struggle comrade

#22 | Posted by joesmyslavename

When your fascist coup fails on live tv, what else can you do besides say the other side are commies?

In most circumstances, yes.

But by undercover LEO for evidence?

What, exactly, is the joke here?

I ask only because, in my view, your current alias has a history of backing away from absurd things it has posted.

So... please explain to me, what is the joke here?

thx.

#31. It was a lame joke. I'm friends with a few cops. What most people consider lewd they consider normal. Like I said, lame joke.

That's the problem with these blanket laws. I'm sure there are plenty of drag shows that are tame, and kid appropriate. No need to ban those.

There have been super sexualized drag shows targeted at kids and those shouldn't be allowed for that audience.

As usual there can never be an common sense approaches to these things.

Our "Approach" was fine until Republicans decided to make trans hate a wedge issue.
There was literally no problem. You can acknowledge this, yes?

Targeted?!? Only in the statements of the pundits you follow. Not in real life.

Back in reality, the only folks looking at drag queens and thinking of molesting little children are the ones who don't have to be looking at drag queens for that thought.

Like beating their wives. Normal, when you're a cop.
Lame, but not a joke.

"Florida undercover agent (name redacted) was resplendent in a chiffon Dior gown, Jimmy Choo Josefine 100 heels, and a Hermes bag. The governor's office wants the public to know these items were not purchased with taxpayer money but had been previously confiscated from Rudi Giuliani."
