Not only are they doing this, flaunting this perversity in our faces, but this is the 7th year in a row? I wonder how many open minded (WTF?) people are going to take their children to view this PUBLIC display of sickness?

The thing I find really disturbing is the BS claim by the LGBT community that they only want to be accepted. No... You want to PUSH that sickness into all aspects of life, flaunting it in our faces. All the while demanding the world accept your lifestyle as normal.

Tell me LGBT community... Is it NOT enough that we don't give a tinker's damn what you do in the privacy of your own bedrooms?

Events <<< This is the link to the K-State Events calendar. I am not sure if this page will exist tomorrow, so I'll take a snap of it and post it elsewhere in the thread..


From this 2nd link you can see how wholesome this Drag Queen show is with acts like:

7th Annual K-State Drag Show! Going To Camp! | Manhattan


I would post youtube links to this but you can look it up yourself because I view this crap as immoral and filthy porn.


The world is screwed up!
I read through the entire thread. I didn't see anything stating that taxpayer funds paid for this show. Why the misleading thread title?

And BTW, freedom of expression is protected under our Constitution.

Taxpayer funds paid for the building and the electricity consumed where the "display", the "event", the sick perversion was held. They are the very same taxpayer funds that those who DENY a nativity scene claim are used when they scream, "Separation of Church and State!" BTW, that "Separation of Church and State" phrase exists nowhere in the Constitution.

Look up Kansas State University Drag videos on YouTube, because I will not provide lazy people with links to perverted pornography. Look it up for yourself, then come back and tell me how this has ANYTHING to do with education. Tell me how it is in ANY way wholesome or in the public interest. Tell me how it is ANYTHING but a public display of perversion and perverted behavior. Then explain why that SICKNESS can be allowed in a publicly funded building, but a nativity scene cannot.

Again I repeat my initial closing...

Well, I found some clips from the 2010 and 2011 drag shows. I didn't see anything pornographic myself, though people may have differing definitions.

Looks like people were having a blast. Not necessarily my kind of thing, but nothing that would bother me. I've been to a few drag shows and thought they were quite fun.

Nativity scenes, incidentally, don't bother me either, as long as religious celebratory paraphrenalia from ANY culture could be displayed alongside it.

To me, hatred, bigotry and intolerance are "sick, immoral and perverted." Much more so than homosexuality.

What, by the way, do college/university athletics have to do with education?

I don't see anything in K-State policy that would not allow a school Christian organization from renting out the Student Union for an event and during such an event setting up and displaying a nativity scene.

What exactly do you mean by 'tax payer dollars'? What does that even mean?

If you meant that people paid like 5 - 10 dollars to get in on this show so the College can profit and cover expenses, then I can see what you mean. If you meant anything, you're going to have to explain it to me please.

Also, why do you care? Not everyone subscribes to your religion nor is anyone forcing anything onto you. If you don't like this event the don't go to it. Live your life the way you want...why is that so difficult for you?

The only thing that happens in a drag show is ... costumed female impersonators perform lip-synch to popular songs. Nothing else.

What exactly is "sick" or "twisted" or "perverted" about that ? Please be specific.
Grown men playing dress-up have serious problems.
People thinking this is wholesome entertainment appropriate for children have been brainwashed to accept as normal what they know is perverse behavior.

You don't get this, you probably never will.
These people are sick and depraved and have infected society with their illness.

There was no admission charge to cover any costs. There was no charge at all. There were no age restrictions on people who could attend. There were zero boundaries.

I'm gonna give some of you the benefit of doubt that maybe you didn't see one of the displays, the one by "Penny Tration", if you think this wasn't perverse. Rubbing it's fake boobs on and dry humping people in the front row. No perversion there. No sickness there. No concern that some 8 year old kid is going to be exposed to this, wondering why do those women look funny, and what are they doing?

I see these sicknesses pushed upon society, demanding zero judgement upon their behavior, while at the same time decrying a public nativity scene on public, tax payer funded property as imposing ones religious beliefs upon people... and it breaks my heart. It tears at my soul to think THIS is what some consider progress of humanity. It makes me cry for the lost souls who refuse to see the truth of this sickness.

Just because there was no age restriction that doesn't mean people of all ages attended. The absence of evidence is not evidence of the absent.

First off, that name is hilarious if anything. Secondly, no parent in their right mind would bring their eight year old to this kind of show. A responsible parent would make sure their child is taken care of before going to a show like this if nothing else than to show support of their college or friends who invited them. Third, why are you so concerned with the lifestyle of other people? Okay so the show isn't for everyone. If that's the case and it offends you so much, then take it up with the school in question and see if you can petition or at least get some sort of compromise about this kind of show being put on. Yet all you do is cry, cry, cry on an internet forum where no one really gives a damn about how insensitive you are.

Are you saying that we have to abide by YOUR religious beliefs in order for humanity to progress? What if we don't believe in your religion? What if we don't believe in religion period? For instance, I'm agnostic and I never will believe or adhere to any tenants of Christianity or any sort of religion that promotes child manipulation, bigotry, ignorance, and down right hate-speeches.

Take it up with the local lawmakers if you want to do something about. Stop looking for sympathy here - you won't find any.

One is in violation of the 1st Amendment. One is not. Make sense yet?
