Florida to revoke liquor license of Hyatt that hosted an all ages drag show…
-
A Cleveland brewery company just took over my fave brewpub here, Cartridge. I told their manager they were making a mistake hosting drag shows here in deep red Warren County, especially in what was a very family friendly establishment. He just said they were family friendly, but also inclusive.
I predict sales are about to go down. They also had some sort of rainbow banner on their patio.

I hope they lose their ass.

When does the line between "inclusive" and "offensive" get crossed?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

If I took Finley into a burlesque show, they would be shut down in a NY minute. Why is there special consideration because they are queer?

Because “drag” and “burlesque” are different?

You’re right. Burlesque is often much less sexualized content.

All in favor of it.
Kids do not need to be exposed to a drag queen anything. If the hotel wants to have such an event, 18 and over.
I hope this sends a chilling effect throughout the state.

Regardless of your personal feeling, the state has no legal justification to penalize the hotel if there is no law prohibiting the presence of minors at drag shows.
Thou shalt respect the rule of law, not give in to demagoguery.

It also cited a criminal law against disorderly conduct, and one against the “unlawful exposure of sexual organs” — a first-degree misdemeanor, a crime if done in a “vulgar or indecent manner.” First-degree misdemeanors, in Florida, are generally punishable by up to a year in jail, while committing a second-degree misdemeanor can lead to a term of up to 60 days behind bars.

If it wasn't offensive, it wouldn't need to be 'included'. They are the same line, just described by people on opposite sides of it.

@LuFins-Dad there's a twitter account called "The First Amendment." That account is defending drag shows.
Fine.
I'm awaiting it to defend drag shows in front of 6 year olds.
By the way, on a sort of related topic, I still haven't heard if Ax objects to his kids seeking out porn.

The James L. Knight center, where the event was held, is owned by the City of Miami and managed by a third party, not the Hyatt. I suspect this won't make it past an appeal.
DeSantis won’t care by then. A common DeSantis theme is to make bold but impractical or illegal moves like this. He wins the news cycle, and no one really pays attention when it gets walked back a few weeks or months later.
Trump must be livid.
Only non-witches get due process.

The problem is whose liquor license was used to serve at the event? I don’t know enough about Florida’s liquor license rules, for instance, but I do know that 20 years ago, that show wouldn’t have been allowed to happen in PA with alcohol served unless it was at a private club and would have been strictly 21+…
