Florida lawmaker proposes bill criminalizing adults bringing children to drag shows

“The events of this past weekend were horrifying and show a disturbing trend in which perverted adults are obsessed with sexualizing young children”

Mr. Misster is a Dallas bar that hosted a “Drag the kids to pride” show on Saturday that allowed kids to dance with performers on stage. The show was put on in an effort to raise money for local LGBTQ+ youth organizations and incorporate guests who cannot normally attend shows at the bar due to a drinking age restriction, according to local media.
