You can tell how depraved our society has become simply by the fact it is now controversial to remove pornography from the hands of 5- and 6-year-olds.
A Minnesota public school district had to defend its decision to pull a gay “children’s” book that includes illustrations of naked people from its library shelves after angry perverts complained -- perverts who also seem to include the district’s school librarians.
"My decision to direct the removal of the book 'The Rainbow Parade' from our elementary media center shelves is not based upon restricting student access to a viewpoint, message, idea, or opinion. It is based solely upon the depiction and celebration of public nudity in illustrations on two pages of the book,” insisted Kent Pekel, the superintendent of Rochester Public Schools, in a memo obtained by The Minneapolis Star Tribune.
The book begins with a story of a young girl attending her first gay Pride parade with her two moms. I’d show you pictures from the book, but I don’t need that smut saved in my work computer’s history.
Instead, I’ll refer to a summary by Fox News, which described several pages of nude illustrations, including two men dressed in bondage gear.
Pekel believes that “depiction of public nudity makes the book inappropriate for the open shelves of a media center in an elementary school where students as young as kindergarten can access the book without adult supervision or guidance."
Seems reasonable! But not according to a “committee of community members, teachers and media specialists,” who reportedly voted “overwhelmingly” to keep the porn book in the hands of children.
That “committee” featured Tammy Van Moer, the district’s media department chair, who advocated for the book in the name of “represent(ing) all students in our school district.”
Something’s seriously wrong in the home (and school) if a kid feels “represented” by naked men in bondage gear.
Similarly, Rochester’s school board member Karen MacLaughlin said she thought the story was “cute,” which is why she was torn whether to leave the smut-laden book in the hands of kids. But she ultimately decided during a Tuesday board discussion that it wasn’t “meaningful enough” to include it with “the plethora of other books about gay rights and celebrating LGBTQ.”
Of course, admitting that, let alone criticizing the presence of sex-related children’s books in the first place, triggered progressives, who interjected with an outburst over her comments.
