He can take them to drag conventions and then post the evidence, post pictures and videos of criminal sexual conduct … and somehow not end up in jail, or better yet, the gallows.

Because, Stupid Peters, those things are not against the law.

I know, I know, you conservatives have a real hard time with that concept.

I mean, taking a kid to a drag show is illegal in TN, right now. The GOP is actively working to make these things illegal.

Does the law say "drag show" or does it say something like "performance of a sexual nature" which the GOP is intentionally conflating with drag shows?

Do people actually take their kids to drag shows or is that just a right wing talking point? I'm not really sure what kids would get out of it, aren't those aimed at adults?

I've never seen a kid at an adult-oriented drag show, fortunately, but I've seen Pride events occasionally offering a kid-friendly show, and there's the drag story hours that are a perennial conservative lightning rod. Drag queens are good at interacting with crowds and they're generally really colorful - they're probably quite entertaining during story hour.
