We've done several posts on people fleeing the state of Florida because they don't feel safe. Organizations have put out travel advisories for LGBTQ people warning them not to travel to Florida.
Some producer at CNN got the idea to find one of these families and do a mini-documentary showing them packing up their U-Haul, interspersed with footage of Gov. Ron DeSantis, who made their trans daughter cry. And then they find a sympathetic organization to fulfill the requirements of "journalism," never stopping to explain why Florida has passed the legislation it's passed. Tori isn't able to get her "lifesaving" medicine.
Seriously, do you think CNN has an agenda here? Watch the whole thing.
"I never thought that I would have to flee a state."

It's not DeSantis' fault that these parents are monsters https://t.co/HWhDrdDPVW

They don’t have to flee. No one’s safety is compromised, unlike California

"Moving" does not equal "fleeing". On a separate note, how old is their kid?

They can't legally castrate & mutilate minors anymore? The horror 😱

I’ve got a van if anyone needs a lift to the airport.

They’re literally admitting that the reason they left is because they didn’t like that Florida outlawed genital mutilation for children. Let that sink the fuck in. pic.twitter.com/UW7nA81hbs

Amen. This isn’t the sob story CNN had hoped it’d be.

There is something fundamentally wrong with these parents.

Did @CNN find the one and only family wanting to leave Florida 😅

Hey CNN come back and interview them again in five to ten years I'd love to see that one.

The dad is utterly defeated

These are families where the woman is in charge. The dad is defeated.

Leftist mom is a toxic mom.

This has to be satire. No one can really be this big of a snowflake.
— Craig Jenkins (@Kent_Stark) July 26, 2023
So you found the one family leaving, but ignore the hundreds of thousands moving there.
— Tracy 🇺🇸 (@TracyJHoban) July 26, 2023
You’re a joke.
This really is straight-up trans propaganda. "Ron DeSantis made our daughter cry." I don't feel safe here. Boo hoo.
