Seattle Schools Defy Supreme Court, Ban Parents from Opting Kids Out of Gender and Sexuality Lessons – Twitchy

Apparently, Seattle doesn’t believe they have to follow federal law. That is an interesting take on their part. 

Good luck opting your child out. The state’s largest school district, Seattle, says parents are forbidden from opting THEIR OWN CHILDREN out of lessons about gender and sexuality. https://t.co/GIGjTPD0aW pic.twitter.com/heQI7XKHgW

It appears that Seattle is openly defying the Supreme Court of the US, which, in Mahmoud v. Taylor, just held that parents have a RIGHT to opt their kids out of this sort of LGBT indoctrination.

Any officials knowingly violating that right could be liable for big money damages. https://t.co/aTzfVuQgVC

Ted Cruz, an actual Constitutional scholar seems to disagree with them.

Harmeet also isn’t having it and she is in a position to do something about it.

Did not anyone in Seattle Public Schools read the Supreme Court’s June decision in Mahmoud v. Taylor?

Good luck arguing qualified immunity. https://t.co/oGEXgOuXgc

I don’t know how this stands after Mahmoud v. Taylor, but I’m sure the Ninth Circuit will figure out a way. https://t.co/5EJYut4PeP

Daily reminder that gender ideology requires its adherents to have zero empathy for anyone its principles hurts. Women raped in prison? Children who were lied to and harmed? Families destroyed trying to save their kids? All sacrifices for their glorious utopia. https://t.co/nwrjMawT9z

It’s sickening behavior.

🚨 Seattle bans parents from opting kids out of gender & sexuality lessons.

We’re already fighting this battle in California—where schools secretly “transition” kids behind parents’ backs.

Parental rights don’t stop at the classroom door.https://t.co/LYIzyz3bkY https://t.co/5stTBEwfvG

Parents refuse to back down. 

The whole LGBTQ is simply about grooming and dressing it up with compassion, diversity, and empathy.

Self-righteous evil.

Legit Satanic. https://t.co/YyfQAurDcj

The “no option” for opt outs pertains to the “inclusive curriculum” mandated by WA SB 5462 that takes effect on Oct. 1.

You’ll be made to comply. 

Can’t even opt your kids out of grooming https://t.co/LHxXxEHl0r

There is no option to opt your children out of being indoctrinated into the castration cult within Seattle https://t.co/2TyVPAeeoo

They believe your children belong to the state.
