Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed a bill that would restrict drag performances. Supporters of the law say it is needed to protect children from inappropriate entertainment while critics argue the bill unfairly targets an art form associated with the LGBTQ community. NBC’s Antonia Hylton reports.

Good!! Keep ‘em away from the kids!! We don’t take our “children” to hooters either … put the freak show back in the circus
Still waiting on that Tennessee inbreeding law…
What about Pride Month? Some parades might be very pretty. I feel it is an industry that will become very entertaining if they have place to entertain adults.
Why the children for a crowd to entertain?
Ironically Gov. Lee looks like he'd be very beautiful in drag ….in fact I truly believe he is and or has been….
Protect our children. Do what ever you want to do legally just not in front of children. What is so darn hard about that concept.
The mentally used to be placed by court order into insane asylums. Today, these deviants are celebrated by the filth brigade.
So stupid. Who let's their kids see drag shows?
He was in drag . I have pictures
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Restrict churches next
US states with a child poverty rate of 20% or higher? The Republican-led states of Kentucky, Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia, Oklahoma, Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina where legislatures have not raised minimum wage above the federal $7.25 an hour.
Freedom is too much for some people to handle.
Just keep kids away from these groomers. Woke progressive liberal 🤡🤡🤡🤡trying to make pedophilia legal / acceptable
I completely agree that this s*** is not need to be around children. I'm sick of these people pushing their agenda on children
I'm here in Tennessee and I'm a liberal and I agree with this law!
Yes and all of those Events do not have men pretending to be women🙄
They would be better off doing that kind of thing in California anyway.. the weather is a whole lot warmer!😂
Protect your society from weirdos.
Hypocrite
OUTSTANDING!!!
I felt as if everything that I was and fought for was dying because of people that do not know what it takes to sacrifice so yes I am guilty for living up to my OATH.
Children really shouldn't see that.
You really have to be that way to want to dress that way.
Are they going after strip clubs and hooters ? Because those are way more inappropriate than any drag show bunch of bigots .
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉👏
Hope Santos doesn't go to TN
I like it. Get them freaks out of here.
Next they should ban bronze age mythology and fairy tales in schools and public places. You know the kind that say a man rose from the dead….
Lol… Drag is sexual from inception
Vegas oddsmakers currently place the likelihood that Mike Lee wears lace panties under his business suit at 2 to 1.
Free Drag Name Lady Hard Tuck Lee
Atta boy! That's MUCH better than having an actual position & a policy orientation on major issues =)
Its HILLARIOUS Cons rather ban drag than toxic waste. LIfe expectancy for Cons dropped to 72, and its going to drop to 0 in the next 40 years at this rate.
Lets hope they deregulate more cancerous things like forever chemicals and ban cancer vaccines so they can end their pathetic lives as fast as possible
Arrest bonespurs.
Mitch McConnell Said. Deplorable Republicans. Are. Paranoid. Nazis.
Only Trump to drag the corruption .
Drag shows should be happening at public truck stop restrooms where they belong.
Taking back America 1 step at a time …..
Even though he freely admits to have performed drag himself.
This is BS- THIS DOESNT ATTACK AN ART FORM..THIS ATTACKS OUR CULTURE! HOW ABOUT THE SAME GOVERNOR BEINGBCHSRGED BEING HE WORE DRAG IN HIS DAY. THIS ISNT CONTROVERSY THIS IS AGAINST OUR RIGHTS!
