Cuckoo Award

Two awards this week!
 
Do you know what Furries are? They are people who dress up in animal costumes. Well a Republican legislator went cuckoo over them!
Republican files bill to make animal control remove furries from school grounds
A Republican lawmaker from Oklahoma has pre-filed a bill that would ban student furries from school grounds, even stating that students could be removed by animal control.

The bill, introduced by representative Justin Humphrey, cracks down on furries – those who dress as or identify with anthropomorphic animal characters or ‘fursonas’ – at school, mandating that they be removed from campus and school activities.

“Students who purport to be an imaginary animal or animal species, or who engage in anthropomorphic behavior commonly referred to as furries at school shall not be allowed to participate in school curriculum or activities,” House Bill 3084 reads.

“The parent or guardian of a student in violation of this section shall pick the student up from the school, or animal control services shall be contacted to remove the student.”
And if that was cuckoo enough…
And while not all furries are LGBTQ+, cracking down on furries has often gone hand-in-hand with transphobia. This is because some anti-trans activists have repeatedly claimed that trans identities will lead to people identifying as animals or non-sentient objects.
The hysteria over anything trans has resulted in some crazy cuckoo laws and this take the cake!
