This Thread has it all... Politics, Insults, Name Calling, advancement of Communist and Socialist Dogma... everything except Double Gun content. I've stayed out of it to see where it goes, just to see if all of the usual whiners and crybabies who complain to Dave Weber about 2nd Amendment Threads and off-topic "bad manners" would complain. Over two weeks has passed, and we hear crickets.
mc, who is it that's banning books? And here's Craigd with one of his utterly incomprehensible responses....
craigd, People who fear books are largely people who don't read. They just somehow know that books convey irresistible temptations to the unsuspecting. They don't read 1} because they don't like to, 2) because they want to guard themselves against hearing something that could threaten their mind set. Stupid people fear books because they resent smart people who know things they don't. Stalin and Hitler tried to defend themselves by banning books. They're the model for book-banners today.
And there's Billy falsely suggesting that it is Conservatives and MAGA Republicans who are banning books. This is the same guy who repeatedly used this Forum to advance the false Democrat narrative about Trump colluding with Putin. But censorship and student's access to certain books has happened for decades, usually due to offensive or sexually explicit content.
https://www.rd.com/list/books-banned-the-decade-you-were-born/ Public School Boards have always regulated the content of the curriculum, and determined what is taught, and what books are purchased for classrooms and libraries. As a retired English Teacher, Billy knows this, but is once again parroting Democrat propaganda, and supporting the perverted sexualization and grooming of children by pedophiles, Transgenger sicko's, and the entire LGBTQIA++ crowd.
Not so many years ago, we were asked by the sick Liberal Left to merely accept the queer lifestyle, but now this and other mentally sick behaviors are being crammed down our children's throats in order to normalize perverted behavior. At G-A-Y Pride Parades this month, these sick bastards are chanting and bragging, "We're coming for your children." Children are being chemically castrated and counseled by sick Liberals without parental consent or knowledge. Billy is once again telling lies when he says this is only happening in Catholic Schools, while parents who dare to complain are labeled as Domestic Terrorists by the Democrat controlled DOJ and FBI when they speak up at Public School Board meetings.
Tim, No one has denied parents' right to decide what THEIR children can read. If you believe that teachers and schools have corrupted children, you must have been reading about Catholic schools. The idea that the gay, lesbian, ect. crowd is grooming children is just plain silly. They have their own issues to deal with. There are preditors out there, but they aren't using books to promote their aims.
A couple weeks ago, new data came out showing that reading and math scores among 13 year olds are at the lowest point in decades, and these sick Democrats are complaining when Conservatives simply want kids to be taught normal and useful things instead of being groomed by agenda driven pedophiles with books like Gender Queer, etc. We spend more on public school education per pupil than any nation on earth, and once again, our retired English Teacher shows us he still cannot spell a simple word like "predators". And he also cannot tell the truth about what his anti-gun Liberal Democrats are doing to destroy this nation.
