Moms for Liberty
@Moms4Liberty
Attention Parents! 🚨

A teacher in Palm Beach County, FL shared this template with us. It is being shared among teachers to use for grades K-3.

How do you feel about this? What will you do when this arrives home in your child’s backpack?

Time to take a Stand.



They didn’t expect this because they just assumed that the law would be interpreted in a way that favors them rather than by the literal text of the law which, if it doesn’t explicitly require this, at least encourages this by being intentionally vague.

And judges may well interpret the law that way. If someone brought a lawsuit because a straight teacher made reference to their spouse, it may well go nowhere. Jim Crow laws were facially race neutral as well. But until the courts clear this up better to be safe than sorry!

1. This is the correct response

well done.

[ymetca]

2. Also

all electrical outlets shall be hidden from view, and nothing shall be allowed to plug into them.

Sit in the dark, with no books, now little children. Praise the Lord!

[keithbvadu2]

3. 'Praise the Lord'... but do not refer to _____ as 'The Father'.

'Praise the Lord'... but do not refer to _____ as 'The Father'.

[SergeStorms]

7. Our Mx. who ____ in heaven.....

Can't say father
Can't say art (short for Arthur)

Yeah, that's really 'gonna raise hell with the bible.

[Maraya1969]

24. I had to read you post 3 times!

I don't know anyone named Art and you confused me!



And then it was

[SergeStorms]

29. Newer translations....

say "who are in heaven", but I had to go through a year's worth of Lutheran confirmation classes, and we learned "art in heaven".

That was the end of my religious indoctrination, and I only did that to please my parents.

Don't feel bad. Sometimes I get totally perplexed by something someone writes on DU, and I'll obsess about it until I remember something or look it up. I can't leave something dangling, it drives me nuts (but at least it's a short drive).

[COL Mustard]

12. Especially since those pesky sexist outlets

Have male ends and female ends!!!!

[aeromanKC]

4. This is so perfect it has an April 1st feel to it

[pnwmom]

6. I know. But it SHOULD be true!

[Nevilledog]

8. The original tweet is from the group hugely responsible for the passage of the bill

[aeromanKC]

10. This makes it even sweeter!!

[smirkymonkey]

5. K&R

Bwahahaha!

[Joinfortmill]

9. Don't fuck with teachers, they're smarter than you.

[Laha]

14. Haha, yes. This.

I've got nothing better to add.

[MOMFUDSKI]

22. Good One!

lol I feel this should work until deathsantis gets his head out of his ass (or not).

[Aussie105]

11. Teachers had better start dressing in gender neutral clothes too.

Just to avoid any gender specific stereotypes, and any inferences kids can draw from that.

Baggy jeans, baggy tops, trainers for shoes, mid length neutral hair styles, no makeup, and girls - lower the pitch of your voice - guys, do the opposite!

Aww, this could be fun!

Parent to kid: Who is your teacher this year?
Kid: Goes by the name of 'teacher number 231' and no other, no idea if male or female though. I've asked, but it's a taboo topic it seems.

Parent (squinty, suspicious eyes): Keep an eye open. See which staff toilet they go into.
Kid (sad eyes): Liked Miss Smith last year more. She smiled a lot! This one doesn't.

[ymetca]

19. Or, all bald heads in a blank white room!

a la THX 1138, eh?

[CRK7376]

32. Hey I resemble that....

Bald and a History Teacher!

[LiberatedUSA]

23. They could all go as SNL's It's Pat. N/t

[James48]

13. Except for one thing.

It says to contact your congress person.

It’s not the U.S. Congress that passed that law, it is the State Legislature of Florida. State Reps and State Senators are who can do something, not their Congressperson.

[SouthBayDem]

15. Liberty? WHOSE liberty?

Always ask "whose?" whenever you encounter a "liberty" org.

[Hulk]

16. Florida is so hopelessly f'd up.

Sad that this little Nazi is leading Florida into the Crazyville dustbin of modern man. I just can't grasp how such idiots can be granted permission to lead them around to embarrass a minority that actually have a decent intelligence.

[kiri]

31. It's the damn cities

Everything's up-to-date in Kansas City.

6 min of fun dancing

17. Why dey mad?

Folks have a right to guard against potential lawsuits brought about by an ill-conceived law.

[orleans]

18. ...

The law states: "Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards." Parents would be able to sue districts over violations.

https://www.npr.org/2022/04/01/1090211332/dont-say-gay-law-florida-lawsuit-desantis

i guess i'm too old and all this is just beyond me & my comprehension. do they mean "instruction" or "discussion?" if a 5 yr old talks about her mom and mommy is she shut down, told we don't talk about that, or sent to the office?

and i didn't realize they instructed kids on gender identity/sex. orientation.

i don't recall any of this hoopla when my daughter was in school.

[Nululu]

20. Teachers 1 GOP zero

Teachers are smarter than those jerks trying to legalize bullying

[bearssoapbox]

21. No matter the gender, just call each student,"It".

Then relabel the bathrooms, "It" & 'It' with gender neutral stick figures on the doors.

I'm sure the parents would be delighted.

[Aussie105]

26. I guess you could have one room

for 'sit down people' and another for 'stand up people', and let the kids decide which they go into?

I can see that working really, really well! /sarcasm

[bearssoapbox]

27. So true.

Picture the PTA meetings, graduations, from kindergarten on up.

Then there's the plays, sporting events and all the etc's.

[CRK7376]

33. That would go

over really well in my high school....

[Aussie105]

25. Not my definition of 'Liberty'.

Seriously, Moms for Liberty, get a brain!

[bearssoapbox]

28. Or change their name.

"Moran's for Liberty".

[Skittles]

30. it's all so ridiculous

it's staggering how many people fall for the made up bullshit issues repukes develop to manipulate their base

[Emile]

34. About as ridiculous as cocaine fueled sex parties and voting against marijuana legalization.

[Skittles]

35. pro-life but against an Covid precautions

their hypocrisy is endless
