There seems to be a large portion of America that are more afraid of their kids holding a book in their hands than a gun.
The funny thing is, as soon as you tell a child they can’t read a book, they’ll want to read that book. And kids have ways of finding books like that.

Can you two virtue Hunters define
defining pornography or obscene content
Still waiting just more of the same conservative Hair on Fire responses
Jim still waiting on the name book your 8th grader read , and where or who gave it to him... his catholic school?
Welcome to Fascism
Some of the ugliest aspects of fascism—intolerance, repression, and violence—were fueled by what fascists saw as a morally justified struggle against “decadence.” For fascists, decadence meant a number of things: materialism, self-indulgence, hedonism, cowardice, and physical and moral softness. It was also associated with rationalism, skepticism, atheism, humanitarianism,
This is an organized attempt to attack intellectuals another pillar in the fascist playbook and you thinks it's actually about ... Parents rights just like it was about voter integrity... your being played

what lies can you show that they are telling?
just because a statement makes your side look stupid, doesn’t mean it’s a lie. i’m sorry, that’s not how it works.
they don’t have the right? who pays for that school, einstein? by what logic does the paying customer ( who pays thousands and thousands of dollars every single year) not have. say in how their money is spent?

i didn’t see that you asked for the. some of the book.
there were two that year that talked a lot about vaginas and sexuality. one was called “I am not your perfect t mexican daughter.”
the other was “Gender Queer: A Memoir.”
have fun.
wayne, there’s video of parents reading from the pages of these books at boe meetings. the BOE members aren't accusing them
of lying about these books. so i’m not sure why you are sure they’re lying. what evidence do you have that they’re all lying?

wayne accuses the right of fascism but he is the one saying “give me huge piles of your hard earned tax dollars, and you have no right to a say in how it’s spent.”
wayne, THATS fascism.
wayne wants him feds of
my dollars every month, and claims i have no say in how it’s spent. And when i offer my say, he says that’s fascist
You can’t make that up.

And the people having a say in what government teaches their children is Democracy. Wayne has it all topsy-turvy. He is a clear example of Orwellian newspeak--Fascism is Democracy and Democracy is fascism.
Or maybe what the left refers to as "our democracy" is something different than what democracy used to mean. I think so.

As far as I know every public school in this country is under the control of elected officials.
Any citizen can run.
Intimidating elected officials looks like the new method of controlling political outcomes.
Trump’s lasting legacy will be what we now see daily. If you’re not on my team then I’m gonna kill you. It’s why exploiting divisions is the worst sin a leader can commit.
The New York Post reported that freshman Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) appeared to be “visibly shaken” as Trump attacked her and her 12 GOP colleagues during his speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner.

Jim and Scott and the rest of the GOP and its supporters all seem to have stayed at a Holiday inn express
they want Parents to drive education and suddenly they are the subject experts ... even if The authority to determine the curriculum rests with the district, not individual teachers. But parents know better.
they think they know more than medical professionals and demand Ivermectin and against Masks
they think the POTUS and the government control the price of Gas and can control the prices of food in a capitalistic system
they think Trump won the election reguardless of what elected officials said in both republicans and democrats .. it was not True
The Current GOP and it followers have decided They are the only arbiter's of truth.. and subject matter experts
what's next Plumbers writing electrical Code
Anti-intellectual Americans AKA GOPQ
were more likely to prefer anti-expert politicians like Trump

and where did he get these books ???
not your perfect mexican
The Lord’s name is used in vain frequently. Words including the f-word, a–, s—, balls, p—, crap, d–n, b–ch, sucks, h—, whore, screw and douche appear regularly. oh the horror
Julia mentions her large boobs often and talks about how men stare at them.
Julia also stops for condoms
julia goes with her to get a pregnancy test Lorena’s friend Juanga is a gay teen
Julia notes that the kids are dancing so close they are practically dry humping. She says that someone’s going to be pregnant by the end of the dance.
She compares a bald guy at a party to a scrotum
oh the horror a book describing what kids at that age talk about and experience
Jim and you still can not provide one example where these books are part of and school curriculum ... Am I am not surprised

Any citizen can object and petition the elected officials for changes in policies. Are you suggesting that once officials are elected they have unmitigated power to do as they please without complaint or redress from the citizens? You do seem to like all powerful forms of governing.
Intimidating elected officials looks like the new method of controlling political outcomes.
It is the citizens right and duty in a democracy--but apparently not in your version of "our democracy"--it is their right and duty to protest what they see as malfeasance. Isn't that what all the riots and demonstrations that you approve of are about? But it's not necessary to riot. Protests can be voiced in board meetings and town halls and letters and phone calls and petitions among various peaceful ways to communicate their objections. It is very democratic to "intimidate" elected officials with complaints that can lead to being voted out of office if they don't comply.
Trump’s lasting legacy will be what we now see daily. If you’re not on my team then I’m gonna kill you. It’s why exploiting divisions is the worst sin a leader can commit.

he got the books at school, to read for english class. did you ever go to school?
there was much more graphic language than what you posted. sorry, that’s a fact.
how would i prove that, wayne? want me to get a letter from his english teacher?
the boards of ed aren’t denying that these books are part of the courses. if your brain can’t process that, that’s in you.

"Jim and Scott and the rest of the GOP and its supporters all seem to have stayed at a Holiday inn express "
What in Gods name does this mean?
"they want Parents to drive have a say in education"
fixed it for you.
"they are the subject experts"
I don't concede that it requires much "expertise" to know that there's better uses for school resources than having my kid read about going down on a girl, and being taught that his skin color is a character flaw.
Wayne, maybe if someone advocated more on your educational behalf, you wouldn't think that "I bet you stayed at a Holiday Inn Express" is some kind of insult. Maybe youd see the irony when you claim Republicans are fascists, but you want huge piles of money from us and claim we have no say in how it's spent.
"The authority to determine the curriculum rests with the district, not individual teachers"
Which is why parents are going to BOE meetings.
"they think the POTUS and the government control influence the price of Gas "
fixed it for you.

WDMSO -
"they want Parents to drive education and suddenly they are the subject experts"
In that post, you were adamant that parents don't know enough about education to chime in.
Have you ever bothered to see how homeschooled kids do, compared to kids who go to public school? They do pretty well. Pretty darn well. If parents don't have a clue about education, why aren't home-schooled kids lagging behind?

now that you mention it! i’m sure all those people advocating for police reform are subject matter experts in that field? AOC, I’m sure, has a graduate degree in criminal
justice from John Jay College.
As always, it’s ok when they do it. only a problem when we do it.

you’re right, the opposition to CRT is limited to a small number of people in the fringe. Just ask Governor McAuliffe.
oh another difference, those opposed to CRT are expressing themselves exactly as you’d hope - speaking up at BOE meetings. they aren’t rioting, burning down buildings, looting stores.
