First fucking comment immediately invokes the hyperbole of living under a "fascist regime." Because, naturally, any check to their behavior has to be fascism in action and not just people tired of perverts airing their bullshit in public with nary a concern.

There are some comments, however, that aren't from the stupid or insane.

First they came for the troons, and I did not speak out,
Because I was not a troon.

Then they came for the adult baby diaper fetishists,
and I did not speak out,
Because I was not an adult baby diaper fetishist.

Then they came for the furries,
and I did not speak out,
Because I was not a furry.

Then they came for me,
and asked if I knew where the groomers were,
And I pointed all those cunts out.

My opinion is split like three ways on this...

  1. If the law really bans minors from furry conventions that might be excessive.
  2. I suspect the con is intentionally reading the law very broadly for political reasons.
  3. Do kids really need to be at a furry convention?

If the law really bans minors from furry conventions that might be excessive.

I'm betting it's the 2.0 release of Don't Say Gay.

I suspect the con is intentionally reading the law very broadly for political reasons.

Or for the money. A lot of cons, even long-running and fairly successful ones, almost always have funding issues somewhere. So drumming up some heat over "Don't Say Gay 2.0" and calling on the faithful to attend as a show of solidarity (tickets still available!) and maybe even make some donations once they're there? I can absolutely see it happening.

Do kids really need to be at a furry convention?

No more than they need to be at kink pride parades. Amazingly, there's actually some furries in the comments saying as much.

Do you remember when adults didn’t want to hang out with children, especially children that weren’t their own?

I do. I remember my parents dropping me and my brother with family or friends whilst they went off and did shit that they wanted to do. If we were lucky and behaved ourselves they’d bring us something back or get us a toy or some shit.

Even if they're not degenerates looking for victim access--and I don't automatically assume that they are, that's just making "groomer" a meaningless bit of noise like "Nazi" every time someone does it--they still don't need kids showing up at this sort of thing. Turning furcons into a "family event" is just trying to normalize their paraphilia and escape the rightful shame of being perverts who don't have the sense to keep their perversions to themselves (or, at the least, to a small group of like-minded perverts).

Oh I remember those days! Or, if we did go somewhere with them, like to a family gathering/bbq, we were expected to bring things to quietly entertain ourselves with, play with the other kids, and stay out of the grown up’s shit while they hung out.

Thanks to selfish/lazy/indulgent parenting, kids are brought places they have no business being. And it’s always the worst behaved kids, too. I have more than a few friends whose young kids basically control their households because they are allowed to.

I love doing things and going places with my son but there’s gotta be a line.

The bill has a definition of “adult entertainment” that doesn’t seem particularly broad, so if they suspect that they might breach it, then maybe they shouldn’t be allowing children anyway.

[–]clownworlddropout 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

They're playing at being a victim here. The bill wouldn't prevent kids from attending a furry convention unless it involved adult performances, in which case the kids shouldn't have been there anyway.

So many things are age-restricted to protect kids, how did these fucktards not see this coming? And what's the problem? Kids can still be furries, they just cant hang out in hotels where they're likely to encounter predators in furry clothing? Where are the parents? Who would let a child go to one of these things unchaperoned anyway?
