Don’t be naive. These unnecessary laws are designed to stoke fear among parents and create political wedges for elections— which is exactly why scum politicians label anyone opposing the legislation as a “groomer” — the same despicable treatment used by GOP Senators suggesting that Judge Brown Jackson was soft in sentencing child pornography offenders.
These laws have nothing to do with protecting school children. Rather, they are calculated as political dog whistles.
