A grown ass man had to write this for the express purpose of stopping kids from playing at school.

Stan Gerdes what the fuck is wrong with you dude? Who hurt you?

So does this mean no more Christmas plays about Jesus, where the kids dress up for the manger scene as donkeys and camels? Or will there be a "special exemption" for that?

That means these are illegal now too:

As well as goths/punks wearing collars. Both of these are things I did in high school, and I’m not a furry. This is so dumb.

GOP is against the thriving mascot community!

Lol most furries are plane engineers or somthin so they're angering the wrong ppl

Saw a video clip skit years ago of a school girl doing the litterbox things. Had no friggin idea it was a real thing

I think we're running into a phase where Republicans are proposing laws based on shared boomer facebook posts and the like rather then actual concrete issues.

The party of small government and personal freedoms.

Obviously, they were talking about their personal freedom to dictate the freedom of everyone else.

Goth girls wore collars when I was in high school, before furries were a thing.

Eggs are like $9/dozen.

But licking oneself or others for the purpose of affection is still fine, right??

I'm PROUD that they CUT my Child's Lunch and Teacher's salary so they could focus on THIS!

If nothing else in my life, it does make me feel powerful how fucking afraid of me that republicans are.

If enacted, I'm guessing the main effect of this would be to make "meow" the new standard greeting among a large fraction of the student population in Texas high schools.

Hey DOGE, these are the dumbasses wasting taxpayer money.

yo they can peel my chokers from my cold dead hands

The party of small government

It's just one of several modern versions of satanic panic used to distract the dummies while they fleece them.

You have to laugh

Using a litter box for the passing of stool, urine or other human byproducts

They put that in the law because they want people to think it actually happens.

It reminds me of the time that a proposed bill outlawed "critical race theory" in schools, which it defined (in part) as teaching that present-day white people must feel guilty about past slavery. But nobody had ever taught that.

Students who bark, meow, hiss or make other animal noises that are not human speech

The cow says "you're under arrest".

Lots of students with verbal communication issues about to be illegal. As are students with artifical limbs or organs or even glucose monitors. Also who gets to decide this: "other than behaviors or accessories typically displayed by a member of the homo sapiens species"?

Jesus Christ, someone buy these guys a fursuit already. I'll chip in. We can do a GoFundMe.

Okay, obvious queerphobia/freedom of expression issues and "how are these malignant societal tumors still on the debunked litter box thing" aside... Do none of these idiots remember that children often role play as animals because they have imagination and they are children? Have they even met children?!? Pretty sure "horse firefighters" or "we're all evil cats today" etc. are a common type of game played at recess or whatever. They have nothing to do with being a furry and everything to do with just regular human development? Are these people really paranoid and threatened by childhood make-believe games?

I find this law hilarious. And incredibly dumb. Hilariously dumb. Maybe spend more on education and childcare. There's always going to be the "wild child" in school.

I love how there's exempt days. You can dress up like a furry once in a while as a treat.
