Twitter on Wednesday after footage shared by another Twitter user appeared to show him wearing drag.Schatzline, a first-term state representative and a former pastor, has sponsored a bill that would amend the state's Business and Commerce code to define a venue that hosts a drag performance and "authorizes on-premises consumption of alcoholic beverages" as a "sexually oriented business." Such a venue would not be permitted to allow those under 18 to enter.In the video posted by Twitter user Michelle, whose handle is @LivingBlueTX, on February 27, Schatzline can be seen wearing a black sequined dress.

He is running and dancing in a park with three other individuals."A response to media posting a class project from my teenage years.

Sometimes you just gotta laugh," the lawmaker tweeted on Wednesday, adding: "Media wants to distract us from adults who act in sexually suggestive ways in front of kids.

We're not backing down against those that want to rob a child's innocence!"In an accompanying video, Schatzline took aim at "leftwing news media," which he said "twist stories to be something that they're not.""Look, the leftwing is attacking me because of some class project I did as a teenager where my buddies dared me to wear a dress," Schatzline said."But we're not gonna let that distract us from the real message of what we're trying to get done right here in the Texas legislature, and that is ban sexually explicit drag shows and preserve the innocence of the next generation in Texas," Schatzline added.In the original video showing Schatzline wearing a dress, he is accompanied by three other people who are also in costume, though not in drag.

AFP this week.After ten days of interrogation, all 24 were charged with "homosexual practices and incitement to homosexual practices",  Armel Niyongere, who heads the human rights group ACAT Burundi, said on Wednesday.An unnamed judicial source confirmed the charges, which are punishable by imprisonment under Burundi's 2009 law that makes consensual same-sex acts a criminal offence.According to AFP's source, neighbours called police when they noticed teenagers entering the office of the non-profit organisation hosting the seminar, MUCO Burundi.Searches revealed "condoms and documents on the rights of homosexuals at the scene", the source said.The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, expressed concern over the case, which he said formed part of "growing agitation against the rights of LGBTIQ+ individuals in many countries, most recently in East Africa".In his latest update to the Human Rights Council this week, Türk also cited a proposed "anti-homosexuality" bill in Uganda, a revised version of legislation struck down in 2014 that had sought to punish same-sex relations with life imprisonment.The latest version of the bill, which is expected to be put before parliament shortly, targets the "promotion of homosexuality" as well as non-binary gender identities."It is unthinkable that we are facing such bigotry, prejudice and discrimination in the 21st century, holding back development of all members of society," Türk said in reference to the developments in both Uganda and Burundi.Last week Burundi's president, Evariste Ndayishimiye, called on his fellow citizens "to curse those who indulge in homosexuality because God cannot bear it".Read also:Daily newsletterReceive essential international news every
