Just another anti-science agenda-driven "judge" who can't see past his own butthole. Hopefully DeSantis will have the guts to remove this "judge" permanently!

Appeal filed... but as predicted the courts will decide. Patience grasshopper.

“The plaintiffs contend that parent choice stops when it comes to public health. The plaintiffs (are) very clear, it’s one or the other --- public health means no parent choice,” Abel said. “Now, the defendants contend, and what the evidence has shown, it’s not one or the other. It’s both. You can protect public health and have parent choice. The governor’s executive order reflects a careful balancing of those interests.”

DeSantis on Thursday promised to appeal if Cooper does not side with the state. The judge said he full expected his decision would be quickly appealed.

The “Parents’ Bill of Rights,” signed by DeSantis in June, deals with parents’ right to control educational and health decisions for their children.

DeSantis’ executive order cited the new law, directing the state Department of Health and state Department of Education to ensure any school mask mandates are “in accordance” with the law and “protect parents’ right to make decisions regarding masking of their children in relation to COVID-19.”

The governor also said he anticipates a separate lawsuit will be filed by parents who oppose school mask mandates.

“I know there’s parents who had their rights taken away, who are going to pursue legal action. I think you will see that in some areas,” DeSantis said.

Attorney General Ashley Moody also weighed in on the case Thursday, appearing alongside DeSantis at a press event in Orlando.

“We have to protect the parents’ ability to choose for their children, under different circumstances. Many of these children have faced different health circumstances, and parents should be able to make that choice as they are sending their child off to school,” Moody said.

If you read the ruling, you will discover that DeSantis would have to change state constitution to get his way. What he attempted went against Florida's state constitution. He overstepped his authority.

This will be appealed. That is the typical pattern with this sort of Democrat left judicial activism. For example, the SCOTUS struck down the CDC's eviction moratorium just yesterday.

Stay tuned....

In fact another lawsuit has been filed by parents who want an opt out option to remain.

Again... the courts will decide.

This may all be a mute point by the end of September.

Your Cancel Culture wish won't be granted because the judge was elected by the voters and holds his term until 2027.

Now we'll see what parents will demand.

I have a feeling some school board meeting will be quite contentious. As I noted earlier my county has about 20% observed to be masked. About the same when I'm at the grocery store or Home Depot.

RSV may be a greater risk right now.

Sorry, I've seen you use this phrase several times. The phrase is 'moot point".

Rick Springfield and Jessie's girl taught me that.
