Hamburger Mary’s, a drag-themed restaurant in Florida, has sued the state to halt enforcement of the recently amended Florida Statute 509.261, which threatens to “fine, suspend, or revoke the license” of an establishment for violations. The law, signed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on May 17, 2023, provides for administrative sanctions against licensed establishments “knowingly” allowing minors to attend “adult live performances.”
Hamburger Mary’s “is a restaurant and bar serving alcohol and presents drag show performances, comedy sketches, and dancing.” The complaint alleges the restaurant has had to bar minors from its “family friendly” drag events because of the law, resulting in a substantial loss of revenue due to canceled reservations.
The restaurant claims the law is a deprivation of civil rights under the First and Fourteenth Amendments because it engages in content-based speech discrimination and because its language is vague and overly broad.

“If anyone says they aren’t after the children, don’t believe them. They lie. These people are pedophiles dressed up in glitter.”
The proof is that these creeps are not doing any volunteer work at the local senior centers and retirement homes. They are only doing these events where very young children are present.
“Substantial loss of revenue”?
How many people bring their kids to a drag show?
The state needs to sue them and their customers back for child abuse.
Apparently if you just call something “family-friendly”, anything goes. Next up: family-friendly dog-and-pony shows.
I remember R Donuts in Fort Lauderdale, the topless donut shop.

I despise the evil scum bags.
(“family friendly” drag events)
Lies from the Devil himself.
SICK and DISGUSTING!
Be interesting to know a bit more about the owners of this establishment...
“Enraged parents took to the floor at a board meeting on May 23 and accused the Fargo Public Schools district of ‘facilitating secret-keeping’
Superintendent Dr. Rupak Gandhi said the district won’t comply with new state law requiring teachers to not withhold information from parents.”
The restaurant claims the law is a deprivation of civil rights under the First and Fourteenth Amendments because it engages in content-based speech discrimination and because its language is vague and overly broad.
There is no such thing as “family friendly drag performances”. These people need some help going to hell.
“I despise the evil scum bags.”
Me as well.
This evilness is being pushed from the top down. It is politicians, agency heads, large corporations, etc. And of course, media. The media pretends that everyone except a few racist bigots on the right supports the trans-agenda. They do not. It’s obvious by the number of people who abandoned Bud Light that America does not support this.
At very least, Hamburger Mary is probably gay owned or predominatley managed by gay people, but the law is the law.
If it doesn’t suit your intentions, then you, as business owner simply have the wrong business plan for this locality.
There is no constitutional right to debauch children with
Drag shows, full of Adult’s Only entertainment.
Demon Clown Mary’s.
The parents should be prosecuted for the sexual exploitation of a child.
