Forget assault weapons, this gun-loving Texas lawmaker wants to ban drag queens
Just weeks after the mass school shooting in Uvalde, Bryan Slaton of the Texas House of Representatives has announced intent to file a bold new ban to protect Texas’ children.
Not a ban on assault weapons, of course; Slaton has proposed a ban on drag shows in any proximity to minors.Slaton, who has been endorsed by the NRA and Gun Owners of America, is doing his best to make sure Texas voters focus on queer performers rather than the gun violence that’s been terrorizing their children’s schools.Drag shows are no place for a child.I would never take my children to a drag show and I know Speaker Dade Phelan and my Republican colleagues wouldn’t either.I will be filing legislation to address this issue in the new #txlege .
