constituents on whose behalf I’m representing meet a particular moral code or t into a speci c identity group. at would be unconstitutional and frankly, immoral.

Mr. Cox took o ense to me calling out that the rainbow ag is being used by groomers. His ire, however, is seriously misplaced. He should be angry at the naked men prancing in our public places under that ag. Not at me for calling out that it is being done. But more importantly, he missed the point entirely. Something that is all too common these days; if he wants unity, then he should join all of us under the American ag, one that has been a beacon of freedom (not compulsion; not word police; not internet gestapo) for hundreds of years. We should rally under that one ag period.

We should be e pluribus unum provided we all still believe in those basic things that made us great to begin with.

at there are certain truths that are self-evident and that from them come rights from our creator that no one can can take. But instead, we’re supposed to pander to various di erent tribes of ags, an ever growing number.

We must pledge our allegiance, even in violation of our conscience, lest we be derided in public as an ignorant hater; or otherwise shamed and booed back into compliance. Bullying is not how freedom is supposed to work. Mr. Cox may try to claim that it is he who has experienced bullying over the years, and maybe that is so, but all the more reason that he should have known to be careful with his assumptions and mindful of his real enemy. But moreover, the Herald certainly should have been; the editor should have recognized that the editorial was not simply fair commentary but an unfair and misguided attack, an attack that was lent credence to by printing. If ever given the chance to discuss this respectfully with Mr. Cox, I would imagine that he and I would fundamentally disagree on what is best and what is intended by God for our lives, but both of us should be able to agree on which ag stands for freedom, and you should also be able to agree on who the groomers are that are now openly pushing for our kids. If you could agree on that, then you could agree on who he is really o ended by.

Mr. Cox suggests that not choosing to celebrate an identity group is akin to disrespecting said group. is is an incoherent argument. I welcome constructive feedback on my viewpoints, and strive to grow intellectually and emotionally in all interactions with constituents, community members, and fellow legislators. Lying about my intentions is not productive, and I wish Mr. Cox well in his future endeavors to communicate in a convincing, e ective manner.
