@SurrealistShip @tracewoodgrains Intact dog being a proxy for poorly cared for dog?

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey They will need to decide if the event is designed with reference to color or ethnicity

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey The law makes no refence to minority, oppression, or historical experience. It gives a definition of impacted events.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey The language of the law is "events designed with reference to race, color, sex, ethnicity, gender identity, or sexual orientation" I think a St Patrick's day event will pass this test as long as organizers are mindful. I also think the attendees will be celebrating Irishness.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I don't think it's an unintended consequence, the law is specifically written to allow these events with minor modifications by organizers while targeting gay pride and black history month. They can get around it but it would take a full rewrite of the event.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey And again we disagree that St Patrick's will be viewed by the courts as a celebration of ethnicity

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I do know how people celebrate it but I disagree that an event that complies with the text of the law will be ruled in violation because of how attendees celebrate. I do think organizers will make adjustments to ensure they don't violate

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I'm an American, I moved to Greece a few years ago if you saw that on my profile

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey The disagreement we have is whether ST Patrick's day celebrates ethnicity under the text of the law. We disagree on our reading of the law and we aren't going to come to an agreement. Its for the courts.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey St Patrick's day is literally celebrating a saint. I don't think it violates the law, you disagree. US Jews arent known for their hyper religiousity. I didn't make this argument you did, but doesn't this suggest it celebrates nationality rather than ethnicity?

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I also think Del Ray will reverse it's decision (unless it gets full private funding that allows it to avoid the law altogether) and make the same adjustments

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I think they will address the questions and that they will find the St Patrick's day events that didn't cancel to not be in violation of the law. I also think the events that do take place will likely have made adjustments to ensure they are within the law.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey While I find it extremely painful to walk away from an internet debate you aren't being a good faith interlocuter anymore and it already feels settled that we disagree on how the courts will handle this and we disagree on what the language of the law means.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I haven't shifted my opinion. I never said Irish is not an ethnicity, that's something you made up. This seemed like good faith but your last several posts misrepresent what I have said and argue against the strawman you constructed.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey We'll see in court✌️

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey Nobody is arguing that Irish is not an ethnicity! You continue to make up things I didn't say and argue against them with LOL and LMAO. You arent arguing in good faith anymore ✌️

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I don't think Florida courts need to "give up textualism" to allow St Patrick's day events under the law. I think Irish being an ethnicity is irrelevant to a St Patricks day event under the law.

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey I don't think SCOTUS will take up this case. Again you misrepresent my words. There's a difference between courts won't want to interpret & arbitrate the true meaning, beyond what it's billed as, for every publicly funded event in Florida and the court never does this at all

[nunya @apokobell]

@shawarmawarma @ijbailey That is not what I said DUDE. We disagree on how involved the courts want to be in arbitrating every publicly funded event. You don't even know how the law defines impacted activities. Its ok to disagree and we will see what happens when it hits the courts.
