As Florida’s controversial “Don’t Say Stand-up Paddleboard” bill becomes law, educators worry that they’ll be prosecuted for sharing what they did over the weekend with younger students.

A dark day.

Florida, protruding off the contiguous United States’ southeastern corner, was admitted into the union in 1845, twenty-seventh overall, but has since become number one in terms of questionable decision making.

The list of less-than-sound ideas and practices that flourish in The Sunshine State have become the stuff of legend, none getting as much traction these days as the recently passed Parental Rights in Education, more commonly referred to as the “Don’t Say Stand-up Paddleboard” bill.

Signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis just hours ago, teachers are essentially forbidden from chatting about the activities they partake in on weekends with elementary aged schoolchildren whilst in the classroom including, but not limited to, SUPing.

Florida Teacher Speaks About Passage Of 'Don't Say Gay' Bill

While not a stand-up paddleboarder myself, I very much reserve the right for others to participate and openly discuss what they love about sweeping the sea. Diversity of opinion and activity is what gives our nation its unique strength and I would encourage midlenghters, high performance shortboarders, foilers and boogie boarders to stand with Florida’s SUP community in order to get this disgraceful law off the books.

Who knows when we’ll need SUPers to support our right to rip.

Be better, Florida.

Be best.

Lol what about tv? Friends? Family? Friends of family? Friends of friends? Your children learn about sex everyday and not just from their parents. You can’t understand what I’ve written cause it makes as much sense as what you have written. What you teach your children is what you teach. What they learn however if different than what they see is called a contradiction. People claim that a public discussion of this topic is unsafe. It’s in public. No one is trying to make your child gay. That is not what they are trying to do. That is not a person being gay. That’s called a pedophile. That don’t do pedophilia publicly. Gay people don’t care about straight people. Unless straight people are talking about hurting gay people cause you feel threatened. Again if you feel threatened it’s not because they are gay. The only people who should feel threatened by gay people are secretly gay themselves and are afraid of being outed.

Anti science? That would be magic. I don’t believe in magic. I don’t believe talking about things in an informative way isn’t hurtful. I suppose you think if you never teach people to swim why would they drown. They shouldn’t be in the water.
The world is covered 90% with water. Chances of you one day ending up in it with out wanting too is always possible. Learn something and be safe. Ignore the dangers and become part of the problem.

Youre the expert
Sadly.

I love that I live in one of the few conservative areas in California. Not a single gay teacher from K-12. So that agenda doesn’t get pushed ever. Also, who cares what you did this weekend. It isn’t part of the curriculum so don’t mention it. Teachers used to be teachers, just teachers. We never knew about their lives and didn’t freakin care. Nobody cares who you are sleeping with, and children don’t need to know about it. Freakin weirdos. There used to be such a thing as “private life” .

Conscience

None of it makes any sense. That’s not why there are gay people or lesbians or any orientation. If that’s the case then just talk about straight stuff with gay people’s children. Maybe they will straighten out. That’s not why there are gay people. You know how you get people to change the foods they like? Keep feeding them the food they don’t like. If you’re afraid that talking about sex too children is too risque and that it means you’re a good parent think again. I wish someone had talked to me about it right before I was 8. Maybe things would be different. It’s not what makes people gay.

The teacher should say “none of your business and where’s your homework”!

Mike

Don’t fill my kindergarden through third graders head with the gender identity/ideology of a adult queer, non binary, trans, etc teacher. Not their job. Sounds reasonable to me. Parents wanted the law… they got it. Stop crying like like there’s some injustice in that. Your virtue signaling about how non homophobic you are means nothing and is a stupid argument. And SUP is an abomination.

ToolMan Tim

This story is the biggest crock of s***!

Chief Hot stuff

Gays wins again!!

Durban Poison

Good move Chas. You’ve neatly exposed how many of BG’s favourite commentators live deep down the homophobic QAnon rabbit hole where they no doubt delight in shoving carrots up their asses while enlightening likeminded trolls about how anyone who isn’t living in the dark ages is in fact a pedophile

Chief Hot stuff

Your dark hole is deep and creepy

Durban Poison

Haha, how’s that carrot doing nestled neatly up your ass

Chief Hot stuff

You wish

Durban Poison

What? That you freaks finally all just fuck each other as you’ve always wanted to and get over your pesky homophobia hang ups

Chief Hot stuff

Is that how you did it
I’ll bet you cum quick?

Durban Poison

No need. I was never down the rabbit hole with a carrot up my ass. But I bet you’re hard now

Chief Hot stuff

Dream on it

Durban Poison

No need. I know you’re loving the self attention right now

Chief Hot stuff

You will tho

Durban Poison

Yes please send me pics

Chief Hot stuff

They’ll be in your head sweetheart

Durban Poison

Don’t forget to take the carrot out though

Chief Hot stuff

You’re the expert honey.

Durban Poison

Well done taking on the feminine part in your role play fantasies. Small steps but they all count

Chief Hot stuff

DOH!!

J H

I think he wants to date you.

Chief Hot stuff

Hes probly just lonely

PjWarren

While literacy is ranked in the 20’s and math the same worldwide….. How about teachers teach?

FL Skunk Ape

And nobody was doing that. It’s a dog and pony show.

Chief Hot stuff

So what’s the problem?

Boat Docks

He’s a Disney employee

FL Skunk Ape

How about passing laws that solve actual probelms? But wouldn’t expect a mental midget like you to get that.

Chief Hot stuff

Time for your next covid shot kook

Simsurf

Like the hair discrimination law from the democrats?

J H

I’d prefer that governments at the local, state and federal level stop doing anything.

Really?

This comment made me laugh hard at least three times. Thank you.

I have three kids in school here. Think I know what’s happening in my own backyard.

J H

Drag Queen story time was literally a dog and pony show and that’s how you got here.

It’s also disconcerting to hear senior people at Disney openly advocating for and producing sexualized content for children.

Especially the crazy lady who has one trans child and one pansexual child.

Sounds like those two kids have a mother with Munchausen By Proxy.

FL Skunk Ape

Nobody was doing that.

FL Skunk Ape

Nothing like creating a law for a problem that didn’t exist. But that’s a qotard for ya…

J H

Its how the game is being played now so kudos to Ron for beating his opponents.

El Vagabondero

Guess E-Lo won’t be going to Florida anytime soon.

channelbottom

Totally not kidding.
Serious bidness.

Ask Negs, or Chas, or SurfAds, or Matt Warshaw.

Tried to get some to D. Carson but I can’t find a working email for the dude anywhere.

First they came for the paddle boarders…

SUP’ing sorta like getting a blowie from a dude,

sure might feel good, but as soon as you look down you realise that your gay

channelbottom

What’s wrong with being gay?
Apart from the biological impossibility of sexually reproducing (which is hardly a problem now that human population is way too large) what’s the flaw?

You don’t want to do it? Don’t do it.

Chief Hot stuff

The 5 year old replys
Whach talkin about honky?

Ami Lost

Do you own a doghouse?

channelbottom

Yeah, you want it? Our dog hates it. We found it on the side of the road anyway and it cleaned it up well but she’s not digging it.

benstandsup

some prefer to standup, rather than take it prone and prostrate

channelbottom

BTW has anyone heard anything from J. Bickerton?

I hope the brother is OK.

Chief Hot stuff

Yeah, there’s a war about 1500 clicks from his joint.

channelbottom

Ah c’mon. It’s more like 2000.

channelbottom

You gonna email me for stickers?

You can give me an anonymous PO box if you like.
Going to buy envelopes this afternoon to send out the first batch to people.
