Re: Public libraries. 21st Century saloons?

I will say we live in a conservative rural area so while yes the city seems to have gotten on board with pushing the LGBTQ agenda it hasn't spilled to the library- which is county not city owned. Maybe that is why. Or perhaps these things are not as widespread as people say they are. I get a bit su...

Re: Public libraries. 21st Century saloons?

When I was a kid, the library didn’t have pornography in it and my parents let me ride my bike there by myself. It’s always been reasonable to ban obscene material from public libraries. In the present era, public libraries in cities seem to mostly be places for the homeless to congregate and (mis-...

Re: A letter I sent my senators, please consider similar.

More likely, the Federal government would have to set up some sort of new national ID card with digital and biometric features (facial ID, retinal scans, fingerprints, etc.) all stored in Federal databases and then allow big tech companies to interface with such information in order to do age verif...

Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

So when you you imagine this off-the-books extra-curricular indoctrination of students about sex and gender is happening during the average school day? Over 4,000 high schools have GSA clubs, which have school faculty sponsors. In many, many schools the whole counseling staff is geared to promote t...

Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

I think if you took a moment to investigate what people are saying here instead of just sneering at us you might find that we had something of a point. I think schools are in a really difficult position. On the one hand, I understand why some parents are upset that schools didn't inform them about ...

Re: Complainers Thread

It's 5.5 weeks until the end of the school year and everyone is just done. Why can't time move faster? 5.5 weeks? Sheesh. Our last day is June 18. That is 10 more weeks and change (not counting this week which is our Spring Break). The kids are already losing focus though. That is true. Our last da...

Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

Apparently, the local liberal mennonite church (MCUSA) won't make announcements of our music events, for fear their constituency will be offended by a "non-affirming" church. Just for the record, they have a female assistant pastor that has a wife....... I assume you are referring to Nort...

Re: The danger of “LGBT” teachers.

More likely that he did not follow the "party line." From a cursory reading of the wikipedia article, it was not ethics, as a disagreement with his conclusions. I would be expelled as well, as I would never call homosexuality "normal" but rather a pathology. The accusations from...
