Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Who the fuck would this even affect?
Nobody is wearing a fur suit at school except for the mascot. Just a weird show of hate for someone different from him I guess.
Even though I'm not a furry, I'm like 90% sure I regularly "engage in anthropomorphic behavior". I probably would have been more confident before I saw this, but now I'm wondering if I've been misunderstanding that word for as long as I can remember.
Well technically anthropomorphic behavior I'm pretty sure means "human shaped behavior" so almost certainly. This politician is a fool as well as a bigot.
I think it’s calculated rather than weird. Demonizing hypothetical fursuit-wearing schoolchildren in a bill that will never become law is free red meat for this ghoul to throw to his base
The only people who are hurt are marginalized kids who will feel even more rejected, but who could possibly care about that
I assume some kid wore a tail or fox ears or choker to school and one of these lawmaker Chuds saw it
