Might be good to clarify in the title that this is the Georgia state senate
Hence why state is in the title.
Oddly enough, “state” can also refer to an entire country.
That’s very unclear. The us has at least 7 states
Yes, but it’s not clear which state. Some might also read state to mean the state department
Funny how this started out as “protect the children, who are too young to make permanent decisions,” which is not prima facie absurd, and then, once they pushed that through, became “no taxpayer money for trans surgeries,” which is much less defensible, but still may seem reasonable to many voters. I wonder where they are going with this.
Maybe some slopes are indeed slippery.
Any ‘think about the children’ argument is just a smokescreen.
Especially when one considers what the typical Republican politician is actually thinking about when thinking about children.
Yeah, my best example of that is the flavored vape argument.
Sure kids like flavors other than tobacco or menthol, but so do adults. With their logic, we should ban flavored alcohol too.
Just as an aside, I’ve been involved in the industry for 15 years and I read every study released regarding it (everything from the US has seriously flawed methodology to intentionally produce bad results). The current popularity of disposable vapes is because of the ‘think of the children’ argument.
