The new rule is that if someone deemed rightwing has been associated with a symbol, then the symbol is now tainted with evil. If some conservatives appropriated the ugly trans flag, it would have to be canceled, right? Just a thought. šŸ¤”

Skyline High School is way up in the Oakland Hills, in a pretty remote and wealthy residential neighborhood. It's a closed, fenced-in campus, and seeing law enforcement moving in like that gave me chills. Oakland's always had its problems, but this pervasive lawlessness is new.

This should concern every parent across the nation as California is the warning map.

We submitted a letter opposing AB1955, which would keep parents in the dark if their child ā€œcomes outā€ as transgender at school, violating legally recognized parental rights and responsibilities to safeguard their children.

Students First California strongly opposes .

Involving parents when a school takes an active role in socially transitioning a child is critical for the well-being of children and for maintaining trust between schools and parents.

Activists demonize ā€œparentsā€™ rights,ā€ but childrenā€™s rights are dependent on parentsā€™ rights because children who arenā€™t protected by parents are vulnerable to abuse. They arenā€™t mini adults. Do not fall for the idea that thereā€™s a conflict between children and parents.
