California’s Joey Macasieb has been raising hell on a bill that would violate the 14th amendment and divide California families, and he doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. Here's what he’s had to say so far:
Gays Against Groomers is a 501(c)4 nonprofit organization consisting of gays, lesbians, and others in the community who oppose the sexualization, indoctrination, and mutilation of children under the guise of radical “LGBTQIA+” activism. We want to express our full support for the Ordinance proposed by Mayor Gracey Van Der Mark. Contrary to claims made by opponents, this Ordinance will not adversely affect the LGBTQIA+ community.
AB1955 violates the 14th Amendment, which guarantees parents or legal guardians’ sole authority over their children. The notion that this bill is meant to protect children from punishment or ostracism by their parents is misleading. Teachers and staff are already mandated reporters; if they suspect a parent or guardian is harming or may harm a child due to the child's identity, they are legally required to report these concerns to the appropriate authorities.
AB1955 effectively enables school districts to act as both guardian and judge, presuming parental guilt until innocence is proven, which contradicts state and federal laws. The claim that AB1955 protects a child's privacy is flat out misleading. While privacy is important, it cannot exist when a child's gender identity or sexual orientation is known by their peers and school staff but kept only from their parents. This bill does not safeguard privacy; rather, it creates a deliberate divide between children and their parents or guardians. AB1955 is facing legal challenges, and it will be deemed unconstitutional.
What must be considered here this evening is the harm to families and children that will occur under AB1955 until this unconstitutional and reckless bill is overturned.
Today, the City of Huntington Beach has an extraordinary opportunity to provide a bulwark against the nefarious forces that undermine a most sacred relationship: that of parent and child. AB1955 serves no purpose other than to divide the family and undermine parents’ rights to raise their children as they see fit, using as its mask the guise of LGBTQIA+ activism. The reality of AB1955 is that it does not protect anyone. Rather, AB1955 upholds the malignant narcissism of a radical ideology seeking to destroy.
We at Gays Against Groomers stand with you to hold the line. LGB&T people of sound moral character stand with you in support of the rights of parents to raise their children as they see fit. We urge you to advance this ordinance to protect the children and families of the City of Huntington Beach. Make no mistake, AB1955 is repugnant to the 14th amendment and will be deemed unconstitutional. Until such time, we stand with you to defend parents and their children from the forces that advance this reckless ideology. We urge you to take courage, vote yes on this ordinance, and move forward to defend parents rights.
