USA $Billions in school hardening devices, glass and shooter kits!
Why # 1 killer of kids we lose more kids 1 -17 than anywhere else in the world! By the Gun!
Run! Hide! Fight! B$billions on drills police and schools! Insanity!
Brought to us courtesy of the GOP. I thought things would change after Sandy Hook but nope. Then after Parkland, Uvalde but nope. More liberal gun laws kept getting passed though.
Its actually Russia
that brought you the mass school shootings and the everyone needs a gun everywhere they go media slant.
It was orchestrated with Russian cash through the NRA to destabilize American society and politics.
The spy just ran back home a few years ago when she was found out.
I mean, I won't speak to the Russian intelligence intent, but this one is an area where Russian involvement was pretty well documented and Maria Butina worked her way up through the NRA elites and the Russians were donating money like crazy through that org.
One of the rare cases where the "But Russia!!" paranoia was kinda legit. And it cost the NRA a shit ton of their political influence and fundraising ability. I know diehard MAGA 2A guys that stopped their donations completely.
God forbid they be exposed to gay men, lesbians or transgender people in school while they constantly watch gays, transgenders on Tick tock and instagram
Some school systems forget there are other religious and some parents are atheists. Will the schools allow Muslims kids time to pray on their prayer rug? Some kid are Jehovah Witness Quakers Seventh Day Adventist etc.
Ironically, teaching the Bible in public school interfere with a parent's right to impart the parent's religious beliefs onto their children. If SCOTUS believes that books with LBGTQ content interferes then teaching directly from holy scripture must also interfere with parents religious practice.
That book is prono big time.
Incest? It's got it in spades.
Rape? That too.
And then there's:
"There she lusted after her lovers whose genitals were as those of donkeys..."
As fiction goes, the old testament has some juicy bits, though it drags at times. The new testament is a bit silly - so much for sequels. 😏
Oh, and yes to PR ('bout time) and DC being states (or at least add DC to Maryland).
I can’t remember which one is more of a drag: Leviticus or Numbers. All I remember about those books was thinking constantly that people say it’s good for me to read that shit. Still trying to figure out why they thought that.
Yup. (Religion should not be taught in public schools except from the viewpoint of understanding the religions present in your area anyway. That's what Sunday school and its equivalents are for).
Hate to tell you, but in some Red folks have managed to teach the Bible as literature in Southwest Ohio, and I have no doubt that we are not alone. Teach it along with Greek and Roman and Norse mythology or not at all. Separation of church and state should mean something so should love thy neighbor.
Muslim parents were specifically selected for this case so the far Right groups bringing the case to SCOTUS could avoid claims of Christian bias. Evil but brilliant legal strategy.
Not saying that at all. But the backers of this case were Alliance Defending Freedom and Moms For Liberty. Two far right Christian groups. They selected Muslim parents to place at the forefront rather than Christian parents, though Christian parents were involved too.
As an atheist myself I simply informed my sons school that unless they taught all religions my child was going to sit that class out. Their religious studies turns out to be 100% Christian - my son spent those lessons in the library reading books he chose.
Yep! This ruling is a slippery slope. You could object to the Bible being taught, others might object to black history being taught. Where does it end?
YES!! It is every parent's worst nightmare that they have to send their children to school with a bulletproof backpack!!! #GunControlNow #MakeSchoolsSafeAgainNow #GayPenguinsAreCute #GayPenguinsHaveRightsToo
🤔 remembering when I was young...
I feared those who I was scared of. Don't force your children to have physical contact with people they don't want to. Yet the beautiful gay couple next door were lovely. One was brutally murdered... still haunts me I couldn't save them💔😔
When I was seven, my grandma told me elton john was a homosexual when I brought his albums to her house to listen to them. I was like "great, do you have any slim jims?"
My little 4 year old cousin at a gay wedding, staring at the cake with 2 grooms on it. I thought maybe he didn’t understand why there were 2 dudes. No. He wanted to know if he could eat the “dolls” on the cake
The fact that there are so many bookspace people choosing to harass the author of that book bc he posts about his experiences of how ppl treat him, and is emotional, is really something
Whoa, that's a lot of drama! It sounds like you're saying that the US is pouring billions into school safety measures, but it's not making a dent. What's the most effective way to keep our kids safe, in your opinion? 🤔
OMG it's a moral nightmare! The other evening when I was helping my daughter unload her special School Edition Glock 17, she told me they were learning about cultural diversity! Can you believe that?! Everyone knows this country was built on white Christian nationalism & grumpy old men. 😂😏🇺🇲
Oh, you got her the Glock 17? Is it working well? My son is asking me for Xmas (not winter holidays) the Sig Sauer P365 Paw Patrol Elementary School Edition, and I’m not sure which one I should buy him.
Yo let’s say the Catholic Church in the US performed a coup on the US government and established a theocracy akin to the handmaids tale. That would be bad, right? Why is literally that same exact thing ok when Muslim countries do it?
What? There is nothing bad about it. I'd rather find a book about penguins than the Kamasutra in its backpack. Love comes in all colours and educating kids about them is your duty as a parent!
These parents will just keep ignorance alive and not allow their children to live and love in the real world. To pretend that some people don't even exist is very sick. A sad day in America. 😞🏳️🌈
Hmmm do I want my 5year old to learn some kids have 2 moms or dad’s or would I rather have them learn about the guy whose concubine got attacked by 12 men so he cuts her body up into 12 pieces and sends it to 12 communities so they’ll kill the 12 man who killed his concubine… which is in the Bible
Just don't read the part about Solomon and bowel movements (I forget the exact details of that story, or possibly I blocked them out... I'm not here to kink-shame, I just have my preferences which do not include the above.)
Or when they are sitting watching the first Jurassic Park movie and realize the globalist director and the Soros-backed author slipped in support for gender fluidity by disguising it with amphibians, and that was when the whole mess started.
Nightmare?
Finding a bullet hole would be a nightmare.
The packs are bullet resistant. Not bullet proof.
Want more bullet resistance? Make sure it's always loaded with books.
I know it's too bad they weren't as concerned about school shootings as they were about some kid hearing about a book that allows you to be yourself. But by all means keep shooting kids
As an instructor in a preservice teacher program, we used And Tango Makes Three with many other children’s books to let students explore what texts could be included in a classroom library. I am furious with the blatant hate directed at inclusion. They are rolling toward internment.
I was thinking of a totally different children's book about gay penguins- "The Pengrooms" by Paul Castle. He's currently struggling to get any of his books into mainstream bookstores due to the subject matter, and various homophobic smear campaigns.
As soon as I heard about 'Tango' I HAD to order a copy for a certain Christian academy. Having your spouse as the librarian in said academy cleared a lot of the needless paper work and discussion.
Man and here I thought we were talking about the 'Gus & Waldo' books by Massimo Fenti. Though I think those are actually intended for an adult audience
And it's a true story! I ordered it when/because it started turning up on banned book lists and have it displayed in my office next to Lulu is a Rhinoceros (also highly recommend!).
Actually, our very real parental nightmare was our children being assaulted by predominantly white Republican Christian men. Like we see in the news every other day.
The book was based on the true story of Roy and Silo, two male chinstrap penguins who formed a pair bond in New York's Central Park Zoo. And Tango Makes Three has been mentioned in numerous censorship and culture war debates on same-sex marriage, adoption, and homosexuality in animals.
She is being sarcastic. She is referring to the number of school shootings in America. W3 have companies advertising and selling bulletproof school backpacks. Despite the actual horror of our unwillingness to deal with guns, we have people freaking out about children's books that

We absolutely ADORE your penguin books (and making fun of uptight "conservatives"...) 😹✨️😎

26 years of the massacre of children in their classrooms.
Zero comprehensive national gun control. Guns cross state borders.
that brought you the mass school shootings and the everyone needs a gun everywhere they go media slant.

The spy just ran back home a few years ago when she was found out.
No one else believes it.
We have no serious
media to report on it.
The elites are ok with it they think they will get to keep their money.
So we are screwed.

Me: "Ehh, you know that your cousin is gay, that he loves another man right?
My 5 year old: "yeah, I know".
Me; "So ehh.".
My 5 year old: "What's for diner?!"
He did not care, to my surprise. Or had no reason to care

I was surprised.
Now chances are in Toronto its not a shooter.
‘Orrible little blighters, proper anarchists & bigly bad examples for kids!
Ps: if books are so influential , how come we have so many criminal christians, eh?
And they often do. Sadly, so do a lot of other people's kids too.
At least the rest of us can smile with bitter amusement at the Kafkaesque nightmare we’re all living in.
OMG they’ve made me crazy!!
Otherwise, cool.
Arrrgh!!
Time to restock the ammunition pantry!
America is a shithole country🤡
Penguins???
How do people deal with such monsters?
Thanks for the laff!
Song of Solomon 5:4
“My beloved extended his hand through the opening,
And my feelings were aroused for him.
“My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him,” (Song of Solomon 5:4, KJV).”
which i could see leading to some confusion.
incidentally, king james, now there was an interesting figure in queer history!
Alexander the Great was pretty poly from what I understand

Anyone who doesn't know it, it's called "And Tango Makes Three" by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell / Illustrated by Henry Cole

There are a LOT of books about gay penguins
It’s time to talk and understand and LOVE. You sound like a terrible parent.
Don’t take things so seriously.
