Florida continues it's increasing momentum into ever more unhinged fascist lawmaking.

The bill allows the state to remove children from their parents or other family members if they're "at risk" of being given access to trans or gender support services. This even applies if they're in another state.

So not only is the state able to kidnap children in Florida, but a chud without any legal custody over the their child who lives in another part of the country with a less shitty parent, could kidnap that child and bring them back to florida - legally.

    Fuck it, anything other than the fed sending in the fucking troops is too lenient at this point.

      This definitely pits federal and state law enforcement against each other directly, which would be :watanabe: if it wasn't for kids being caught in the middle. Yet another law that seems designed to speed up US balkanisation.

        I honestly can't think of any other reason they would try to pass this law. They have to know this will force some sort of conflict. The bigotry and state-sanctioned violence are just their favorite tools to accomplish this.

          I do think that's part of it, but mostly I just think it's Klan terror shit, telling people that even if they've escaped to a more supportive state with more supportive parents or people, they can still be hunted.

            You're probably right, I'm just not used to seeing them be so brazen about it in my lifetime and I sometimes forget that these politicians don't just see as disposable, they truly hate us.
