And it begins. This is what the Republicans and what Gov. DeathSantis wanted. How is just seeing a rainbow flag being educated “in the ways of homosexuality.” I keep saying the goal is to erase gay people from society. Sorry your religion doesn’t give you the right to kick the people you don’t out of the country, you don’t get to make the people you don’t like hide the fact they are real, you don’t get to use your church doctrine to force people to live straight lives because you don’t want gays to live their lives freely. What other things will it be illegal for a kid to see, that will instruct them in the way of …, how about icons of other religions? For that matter I an atheist, I don’t like all the religious symbols and pictures I see, can I sue people for displaying a cross like wearing one around their neck? They already banned the books that offended them, what next?
The US is built on diversity and different cultures. There is a drive on the right to roll back all advances in society over the last 70 years. To return women to traditional stereotypical roles, to drive minorities back to a subservient roles, To erase the LGBTQ+ and remove representation of them. They want a white Christian ethnostate, and they are pushing hard to get their way. They are a minority that is getting their way, claiming my very existence as an openly gay man in a same sex marriage is wrong and instructing their kid in homosexuality. They want me gone, erased, hidden, it offends their Christianity. Tough shit, their religion offends me. What about that. No one has the right to not be offended.
If this man wants his child isolated from the other people then send his child to a Christian school that follows his religion. Gay kids are real, they go to school, they have the right to live their lives openly as do straight kids. They have as much right to date, to have clubs, to see their symbols as much as Christians have the right to wear their crosses. LGBTQ+ have as much right to be and to live openly as straight kids, as Christian kids, as Muslim kids, as atheist kids and so on. This is not the first time this father has tried to force his religion on others and seems to also be a racist who demands the right to discriminate against others.
People we need everyone to stand up and say enough and fight back against the attempt to remove others from society and existence. We must fight against the attempt to force one religion in the laws and lives of everyone else. These people are the US version of the Taliban. Help us stop them. Vote them out of office. Hugs

Dr. Francisco Catalin Deliu of Palm Beach County is arguing that Emerald Cove Middle School, principal Dr. Eugina Smith-Freeman, and his son’s teacher Rachel Raos have been “expressly and/or implicitly advocating for homosexuality as an alternative way of life,” reports CBS 12.
Deliu, a Romanian refugee who fled due to religious and political persecution, is an Orthodox Christian who believes being gay is a sin.
The lawsuit says that in early September, Deliu’s son informed him that Raos had hung two Pride flags in her classroom, searched online “about homosexual lifestyles,” and “proselytized to the students in the class.”
Deliu claims the principal dismissed him when he complained and said she’d have to speak to the Board to determine whether Raos was breaking the law. He also claims that after asking for his son to be removed from Raos’s class and placed in a different computer science class, the school instead moved his son to an art class without telling him.
The suit reportedly does not accuse the school of breaking Florida’s infamous Don’t Say Gay law. It argues that the school violated Deliu’s “substantive human rights” and “natural rights from God.” It accuses the state of “acting contrary to his religious beliefs” and says he has a right to prevent his child from being educated “in the ways of homosexuality.”
Deliu has also previously accused the school of spreading homosexuality through library books.
And these tussles are far from his first time getting involved with the law.
While living in New Zealand in 2017, Deliu’s law license was suspended for 15 months and he was ordered to pay over $250,000 due to “six charges of misconduct, one charge of unprofessional conduct, and one charge of conduct unbecoming a lawyer,” according to the New Zealand Law Society.
The charges were due to allegations of racism and discrimination he made against two judges, which the court reportedly said were “excessive, disgraceful, and baseless attacks on Judges made in provocative and intemperate language, and for the purposes of protecting the practitioner’s own interests.”
For the accusations against his son’s school, he reportedly is seeking a jury trial.
