Police!

Open up we have a search warrant!

We suspect you’re harboring copies of Mrs. Doubtfire!

Did they seriously just ban people from wearing clothes and putting on makeup?

Will this extend to the performing arts?

Are they completely repressed or just depraved?

Things to note:

  • The Court heard the case en panel. Only three judges heard the case. Plaintiff has asked the case to be reheard en banc, with all the judges present.
  • The Court did not rule on merit. The ban was not ruled Constitutional. Instead the case was ruled on procedure in that Plaintiff had no standing.
  • The 6th District is 6-10 Judges appointed by Democrats vs Judges appointed by Republicans. Of the ten Republican Judges, six are from Trump specifically.
  • The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee case is still on-going. There the Judge has ruled a temporary injunction on the law.

If the case reaches the Supreme Court it’ll be “en mountebanc”

How the fuck do you ban drag? People can dress however the fuck they want.

Someone should start a company selling dresses and makeup marketed specifically at men.

Banning clothing and makeup is insane. Any judge who upholds such a thing should be removed by any means possible.

The law never mentions drag, but refers to performers as “male or female impersonators,”

Following that logic, cover bands are also illegal. Also, a fun loophole – 14th century Europe, men wore dresses and makeup. You’re not a drag queen, you’re a historical representation.

Not the Fifth Circuit for once.

Still, I’d like the judge to show us on the doll where the drag queen hurt them.

I’m their mind, they made it up.

Pathetic. Drag is a political statement and social commentary. These idiots act like they’ve never heard of Milton Berle.
