A Texas bill, known as the FURRIES Act, would ban non-human behaviors in public schools, including the use of litter boxes and wearing animal accessories.
Rep. Stan Gerdes, the bill’s author, claimed schools were providing litter boxes for students acting as “furries.”
When pressed, Gerdes could not find an example. The bill was left pending in committee.
Even then, they didn’t have the support to implement it without that sunset. They hoped that support would grow and it would be easy to renew.
It didn’t.
Rather than accept that gun control had become a losing issue, they doubled down, making it a central focus of every campaign across the country for the past 30+ years. They alienated more and more Democrats, year after year.
They claim they want “common sense gun control”, then vote against measures that would actually achieve it, such as public access to NICS. Why? Because they don’t want the public using NICS; they don’t want the public selling guns at all. They took that approach straight out of the “Abstinence Only” playbook.
