Stop giving the 'left' and their agenda the attention they want. The more attention they get, the worse the country gets. Every sensible person knows that you cannot change a gender; male, female as created by God, not science.

Jim Granneman

I agree with you, but we need to keep fighting to make it a two sided issue. Diversity is just that Divisive. With the scores from CPS they need to focus on the 3 Rs and not outside stuff.

Barry Gilbert

The GOP is creating these fake "problems" to appeal to the ignorant and divide us. Instead, they should focus on real issues that affect all of us, like access to healthcare, support for educators, and the epidemic of gun violence.

Vernon Taylor

So we immediately have the gender issue side here describing all who disagree with them as ignorant and blaming the GOP for daring to focus on an issue that is of concern to parents. Say they, it's not lawmakers or parents who know better. They are our kids now. We need them for party control.

Focus on economy, free lunch for school, climate, selling farmlands to foreign countries, and many more. Let people live the lives they choose! No matter what gender they may be. Show me State means be a leader in the nation not a follower of a few citizens beliefs This is a FREE COUNTRY.

It's about time they got focused on it. These LGBTQ communities fought for their right to be that way for awhile well now it's time to protect those of us who still believe in traditional genders. They have become too blatant. Time for restoration. They can learn privacy.

Max DeYoung

Amen Andrew, Jim, Vernon, and Belinda. This foolish evilness from the left needs to end.

Vernon Taylor

This is not a gender issue. It is a larger cultural war being forced on middle America with Republicans being their only defense. One only has to look to the Peoples Republic of Columbia School Board to understand the real consequences. The real question should be why is this even an issue.

Jim Granneman

We need to continue the battle to have our voices heard. The libs are relentless and do not let up, if we are not vocal they work to negate our rights to our beliefs, just as CPS is doing to concerned parents and taxpayers over the drag show. They have a right to their concerns just as they libs.

Belinda Kitchen

I think it's about time they talk about it and decide to keep it out of our school curriculum! To many schools these days are praising LBGQ and it needs to stop kids are to young and they need guidance from their parents not school officials! I do believe something has to be done !!!

Max DeYoung

Are liberal news stations too focused on gender issues? Normal people are XX or XY. What's the fuss all about?

Democrats want to lower taxes for low-income people and increase taxes on the rich.

Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute, Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!

Max

It will always be that way, because most people make bad choices.

Fred

Forgot one important fact ... Reagan and trickle-down economics also put us on the path to huge budget deficits and financial ruin.

Fred

This data is from 12 years ago, but it is only WORSE now. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2014/nov/13/us-wealth-inequality-top-01-worth-as-much-as-the-bottom-90

Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.

Fred

Prior to the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies routinely denied coverage for pre-existing conditions. How exactly does that reduce the quality of coverage?

Fred

Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans, Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.

JIC CoMo

I say fire every Politian. I have not seen one yet that knows what they are doing. They are only for themself and not for the people of the State.

Toasty

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time. When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.

Fred

It would probably be replaced by higher regressive sales tax rates.
