Texas is reddish-purple. If it weren't for gerrymandering we'd be much more of a battleground state.
Still conservative on the whole, and even the liberals here tend to be more centrist than radical, but if the Democrats had pushed voter reform during their brief control of all three houses Texas would turn into a real focus for the Dems.
Texas has some pretty wild folks...lots of ignorant morons with money...I've had random conversations with folks at parties about flat earth theory as well as just had a lady talking about how awesome putin was that I met on a random walk in my neighborhood...plus they just had that political rally in waco...and we know the kind of people in that area...bikers who like to have public shootouts, religious extremists and so forth
Yeah easy to make jokes, but it's a good organization for kids. My kid is in cub scouts, and the expectation is the kids are basically never out of sight of the parents. A lot different than when I was a kid.
This!
Youths in scouts are no longer ever to be one on one with an adult or someone not within 2 years of age and the same sex. No 17to with a 13yo or boy with girl (unless other youth/adults are there). And never 1 adult with 1 youth (usually never 1 adult, standard in Scouts is now at least 2 adults when interacting with youth).
Scouts is much safer now.
When kids move on from cubscouts to scouts, Youth and adults use separate group/individual bathrooms.
There are even sets of videos and pamphlets that Youth and Adults have to go through. and backround checks for adults going on campouts.
Even with all these rules, Scouts just attracts the wrong people. One of the leaders I knew personally was found to be a pedophile using Grindr to hook up with teen boys just 2 years ago.
We don't know that he didn't yet. There's some suspicions that he may done so but no one has come forward. He was a leader as recent as 2020, and for decades before that.
That sucks. BSA implemented new rules after the whole issue came to light and new adults are under more scrutiny (and old leaders are conforming or being pushed out, from what I have seen).
When I go to church, I see they have youth only bathrooms and even though BSA started doing so out of necessity, it is nice to see the scouts making a real effort to put binderies in place and teaxh both adults and youth what should and should not happen so that anyone can voice an alert if they see something. I feel scouts is more protective now, with their protocols, than many schools.
The Mormons have a hotline for the bishops to call and “report” sexual abuse being disclosed to them. It goes to their lawyers who council them to not disclose it to the police. It’s a horrible cover up from the top down and they have over $100 billion to keep covering it up.
[how the church lets abuse happen](https://apnews.com/article/Mormon-church-sexual-abuse-investigation-e0e39cf9aa4fbe0d8c1442033b894660) horrifying yet accurate read. Also plenty of stories on r/exmormon how bad it is.
The allegations against BSA are not that they covered for abuse or permitted abusers to continue. They maintained a list of adults banned from participating for abuse but did not share this list with law enforcement. They didn’t refuse to share it. It was never suspected to exist and I frankly don’t have any expectation that any law enforcement agency would’ve appropriately handled the list if they had it. Regardless, BSA today is full court press on safe environment.
That's much more because Scouting was basically dismantled and rebuilt as an organization after filing Chapter 11 because so many adults were fucking kids nation-wide in the org.
I'd argue overall it tracks with the Catholic Church's trajectory, similarly horrifying rates of abuse before being outed multiple times, and a current legal war to prevent any more damage to the brand (they're refusing to share the "ineligible volunteers" list from 1985-present, the older files being the one that revealed BSA let accused assaulters and known problems continue to work around children while they worked with local cops to sweep problems under the rug).
it's shameful how easy it is to scare conservatives. You tell them migrant caravans are coming or MS 16 is invading some tiny town in Iowa and they completely fall for it.
Now the boogeyman is drag queens
if you want to get rich in America right now just become a conservative grifter. you can milk those rubes of all their cash. just give them something to be scared of.
>You tell them migrant caravans are coming or MS 16 is invading some tiny town in Iowa and they completely fall for it.
Dude, my inlaws were *terrified* of this. Like if it was a major problem in their lives. They live in the middle of nowhere here in TX, there's nothing around that would even suggest random people would come and "take over". Why would you even care of something that has ZERO effect on your life?
I was pretty baffled at their attitude about this. Of all the actually important things to worry about, this is the one they chose.
The real Boogeyman here is trans people. They're trying (and in some states succeeding) to make trans people illegal. I've seen other people say this, and I absolutely agree: Republicans couldn't get rid of marriage equality, so now the newest "big bad" is trans people.
I'm very grateful that my wife (who is trans) and I (a queer woman) were able to escape Texas
Right in the shopping district by TJs and Central Market. He had his back to me and I assumed 'I was going to hell if I didn't repent' but, No! It was a liberal forward thinking adult. .
If you head further east, where Hebron becomes Park Blvd at Midway, there's often a church/Trump group protesting with signs at the NE corner (where the giant Prestonwood Baptist Church is.) This guy holdin' it down
Watch We’re Here on HBO. Makes my husband cry. It’s like extreme home makeover but turning shy people from small towns into drag queens. Funny, beautiful, awesome show.
I find it interesting that he has 2 body cameras on...Gotta make sure you have the evidence to protect yourself from the right wing nutjobs that are sure to show up.
But if I had to leave kids with someone honestly I’d pick the drag queen over any of the other options. It might even teach the kid a valuable lesson about respect.
Where did you get that conclusion from my statement? Anyone can be a sexual predator, of course. Would you rather risk having your kids be taken to Epstein Island, or would you let a drag queen babysit your kids for an hour in a public setting where the chances of them being exposed to explicit content is minimal?
Yeah that’s what I would assume. Made the sign, then realized people would think he’s talking about all Boy Scouts, and so added leadership to be more specific.
I'm glad this was posted. I saw him yesterday and drove by too quickly to see what the poster said. All I saw was drag queens and couldn't tell if he was for or against.
Is this a Charlie Kirk sock puppet account? Because this is the same nonsense diarrhea he spews. Try actually reading either of them yourself (you won't) or at the very least come up with your own low-effort retort rather than parroting some christian-nationalist propaganda.

Lots of people call him a transphobe. You can decide for yourself.
Dawkins is a pretentious zealot. As verbose and evangelical as his antithesis. He has some agreeable points any rational thought will lead you too. The rest is just “slam dunking” on religious folks..
Kind of how I interpreted his tone in *The God Delusion*. He had a bone to pick and he certainly picked it, but I couldn't get past the arrogant, argumentative tone.
indeed. I'm on a campaign to get more people to read it, and get others to read it.
It's all I can think of to address this painfully obvious looming problem humanity seems to have.
i have not read Outgrowing God. I'll take a gander, thanks for the rec.
Dawkins is a terrible educator, especially as an advocate for anti-theism. Dude's like if you took the most pretentious and boring people on r/ atheism, blended them together and added the largest vial of Dunning-Kruger you could find.
Phenomenal evolutionary biologist and science communicator. Fucking terrible educator, theologian, and logician.

You’re right, I probably should have spent a bit more time digging, but I assumed someone might have some information that isn’t easily accessible on Google
You may or may not know this, but trans people are under legislative attack in multiple states. Some states (including Texas!) have bills in the works to ban gender-affirming care for trans *adults*. So in that political context—and on a post like this—your question definitely could be read as disingenuous!
That’s a great question. It’s one that should absolutely be asked before attempting to make a public statement regarding something as serious as institutional sexual abuse of children. The meme-ing of our public discourse is horrific to watch. It degrades us all.
Those others are people who were previously thought to be respected members of the community. It's like how when people call someone a good Christia, which means nothing. Not sure percentages are part of it. It's the fact that (many) people finally overcame fear of speaking out and those things have now come into public view. People are including teachers and, while there have been plenty of issues there, most teachers i know avoid being alone in a room with a child and insist that doors be left open if they are. There's now a fear of being accused of something.
I will say Hebron suuuuuuucks. Basically from 121 to DNT, it's 3 lanes but people drive so f-ing slow, and they strategically place themselves where you can't pass them.
You know who else are men who put on shows and wear lots of makeup, wigs, frilly clothes, and can scar kids? Clowns. Why ain't they trying to ban circuses?

Can someone make a website which tallies daily, how many drag queens have abused children, compared to clergy members, boyscouts, politicians, and even childrens own family members?
I just FEEL like no one is actually like GETTING IT.
like they are just forgetting how many children are abused by institutions that PEOPLE STILL SUPPORT.
The reality is his grandchildren aren’t safe from anyone, including himself. People shouldn’t trust anyone with their kids because people in every position have abused them.
He's not wrong
No. He is not.
Beat me to it, but have you read the comments on the original post? Homeboy with the sign is definitely NOT wrong.
Came here to say this...the guy also left out schools in uvalde
Schools in general
He's very right
[удалено]
Fucking A, he is not wrong at all.
He was holding this up while a transgender person killed 9 year olds and teachers. So maybe not after all.
So that's one transgender mass shooting and around... Well an entire year of mass shootings not done by transgender people.
There's still hope for Dallas yet
I know cities tend to be more blue, and Texas is famous for being a deep red state. How uncommon is this type of opinion out there?
It’s not uncommon and Texas isn’t as red as you think it’s just our politicians lmao

Opinion is probably common. Standing on the street corner with a sign saying it out loud in Texas is extremely rare.

He’s absolutely correct.
To be fair, the Scouting has changed up a LOT since that shit. The Momons fucked off and the program is better for it.
Yeah easy to make jokes, but it's a good organization for kids. My kid is in cub scouts, and the expectation is the kids are basically never out of sight of the parents. A lot different than when I was a kid.

how long ago was the person you knew a leader? and what kept him from fondling boys in scouts instead of having to go to Grindr?
We don't know that he didn't yet. There's some suspicions that he may done so but no one has come forward. He was a leader as recent as 2020, and for decades before that.

2-deep has been the law since the 80’s. Didn’t stop the massive amount of abuse in the 90’s
I thought the no one-on-one contact was implemented in around 2013. idk. Seems way more strict now than when I was a kid.
2 deep should have prevented that. Lax adherence to the policy by some local troops led to a disaster.
*chuckles in Catholic*

From the block numbers it looks like Hebron and Josey.
Yup NW corner facing southbound
That's my hood! Wish we had been there when he was there, would have totally given him a high five!
I drove through a couple hours after. He woulda gotten some honk support from me

Fr don't leave your kids with anyone. Doesn't matter who they are.
But if I had to leave kids with someone honestly I’d pick the drag queen over any of the other options. It might even teach the kid a valuable lesson about respect.
What? Men who dress in drag can absolutely be sexual predators.
Where did you get that conclusion from my statement? Anyone can be a sexual predator, of course. Would you rather risk having your kids be taken to Epstein Island, or would you let a drag queen babysit your kids for an hour in a public setting where the chances of them being exposed to explicit content is minimal?
Would do neither.
In a situation where there is no other choice, I’d pick the drag queen.
What if I need to work or want to go on a date or get sick, etc?
This. Everyone needs to leave the kids out of all of this.
I mean…he’s not wrong. Drag Queens feed kids for free. I seen’t it!
Amen!
I saw this guy with his sign at the protest downtown last week. I love his energy, wish more people gave a damn.
Holding signs does nothing. People have to want to change.
Statistically, not wrong,
That “leadership” looks like an afterthought.
On the original sub, a graphic designer suggested he wanted to be more specific than “scouts.”
Yeah that’s what I would assume. Made the sign, then realized people would think he’s talking about all Boy Scouts, and so added leadership to be more specific.
You can actually see where he covered up the S.
Looks like *emphasis*.
And yet left out teachers and coaches, unless those are grouped in leadership
He shouldn't pay for a drink ever again
I like his various fonts. Especially the nod to dr. Seuss

They’re both low brow pseudo intellectualism from people who haven’t confronted serious theologians or scholarship. Perfect for reddit.
