This bill is disgusting
 

I am a student who opposes defining seuxally explicit materials as queer. This bill will kill kids. I am queer, and I had to hide that facet of my life for many years. Hiding who I am almost killed me on multiple occasions. If we do not allow children to have the space to grow and discover who they love, they will kill themselves. It has happened so many times before, and it will happen again if this bill goes into affect.
