The R House in Miami has been accused of exposing children to sexually explicit drag shows.
When performed in the presence of young children, the nature of the performances described above corrupts the public morals and outrages the sense of public decency.
Florida is ranked in the top five in the country for drag brunches.
The owners of R House are aware of the complaint and are working with the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. We are hopeful that the matter will be resolved quickly and that the governor will see that it is a misunderstanding.
The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation is part of the DeSantis administration.
R House has time to respond. If it is found to be in violation, it could lose its liquor license.
R House would be out of business as a result of that.
The complaint says after a July 3 video on social media and various websites showed a dancer with bare buttocks, breasts covered only in pasties and dollar bills in a g-string bottom leading a girl 3 to 5 years old around a restaurant, the division learned that R House's drag show
According to the complaint, investigators went to the drag brunches on July 9, July 17 and July 23. The investigators combed social media for videos of Drag Brunch.
The complaint tries to make the point that the show is similar to strip club performances with kids being allowed to attend.
It is not consistent with our law and policy in the state of Florida and it is a disturbing trend in our society to try to sexualize these young people. You don't look out for our kids. You are a good person who protects children. Do you not expose them?
Perfomances in the presence of young children constituted lewd activity and warrants revocation of the license.
According to precedent set by the Florida Supreme Court, the place should be declared a public nuisance because of the men who impersonate women.
We want to make sure that we have a state and a community where kids can grow up.
Republicans don't like drag queens because of parental choice.
