Yeah, I don't know why people say that. I'll never vote for a Democratic candidate except for maybe local races as long as their party platform is what it is now. I also won't vote for Trump. I'm going to write in Nikki Haley. Then I'll vote Straight Republican all the way down, except for Governor, in which I'll write in Pat McCrory. Under no circumstances will I vote for Mark Robinson, just not a serious person.

A Republican who writes in votes for Haley and McCory - thereby cancelling out potential votes for trump and Robinson - is a good thing over all. Well done.

Its a good thing you're not trying to find these horrible books because our GOP overlords are doing the good work of banning them so they don't pollute our next generation -- am I right? Or am I just in an echo chamber because I agree with so many people that we shouldn't be banning classic literature?

In my opinion, books like the one I shared should absolutely be banned. But not the classic literature books.

Ha. Thanks for the advice but rest assured: every ballot I cast, I cast it with my kids’ future in mind and the goal of trying to make our country/state/community as prosperous as possible.

How can you say that with a straight face while voting for Trump three times? You are literally voting for the opposite of what you just claimed.

Silly argument. There are plenty of things in society that are designed to protect children from things they aren’t mature enough to handle. Do you just let your kids watch porn or drink alcohol or drive a car at whatever age they want?

Children shouldn’t be subjected to books about “dads” being pregnant or other types of weird indoctrination related to sexuality or transgenderism

So just reading about a certain subject means you are being indoctrinated? Reading about and seeing trans people doesn't make someone trans. Pubs get upset about this stuff but won't do anything to protect kids from school shootings, and don't care about kids being bullied or having the same rights because they are trans or queer, even though it doesn't hurt anyone else. That's weird.

That book should probably not be in lower grade libraries. I don't know that it was.

Out of curiosity, are you okay with the Bible being in school libraries? Talk about indoctrination. What about young kids going to church ti be indoctrinated before their minds are fully developed? Any issues with that?
 
Yet he wants to deport people that served in the military.

who is subjecting them to it?

It is a shame that you want to continue to outcast children of gay or transgendered parents since they wouldn’t have book representing their families.

No. Cuz that is not "weird." Duh. It is only indoctrination if it is "weird."

Glad you agree that book should be nowhere near young children. Unfortunately you’d be surprised what children’s books you can find in libraries these days.

The Bible shouldn’t be in school libraries either in my opinion but I’m also not that religious so I have no strong feelings either way. I would rather the Bible be in a school library than some of these other books, but I would certainly prefer “neither” over “both”

Parents forcing their kids into religion is absolutely a form of indoctrination. Exposing your kids to religion is fine and nowhere near as concerning or weird as exposing your kids to the idea of pregnant men, but I do feel a tad uncomfortable when people’s young kids become super religious. But again, I’m not very religious so maybe I just can’t relate.
