A man who appears to be school board member Andy McGuire with Velma-Alma Public Schools issued what he called a “public service announcement” on Tik Tok, implying parents who believe in more than two genders should kill themselves.

Posting under the handle “@savagegent77,” the man said he was speaking to those parents who think it’s “OK for your child to decide if they want to be a girl or a boy or whatever other ridiculous-(expletive) pronoun you can come up with,” in a video obtained by The Oklahoman.

“It's going to be a shock, I understand, there are only two genders,” he said. “Let me repeat, there are only two genders. So if in your sick, twisted mind you got some other thought process going on about girls and boys, do us all a favor, find the busiest street that you can find, take your (expletive) out, lay down on the center line and do the world a favor.”
