friends and family live down there. If it wasn't the humidity, we also would have packed up and gone. Wife and I's professions are sought after and jobs plentiful. No state income tax and no property tax makes its very appealing. CAlling it a leftist ******** like California only shows how ignorant and misinformed he is.He's not going to listen to anything but his own opinions so lets stop feeding him facts. He doesn't want them.Just spent a week on the Emerald Coast, and "**** hole" is not exactly what came to mind. If it wasn't for family, I'd trade my house in Indy for a house in Destin any day of the week.
I didn't spend a whole lot of time worrying about politics while I was down there, though. But did think enough about it that I was quite clear that I wasn't in ****ing California.
You seem to be supportive of keeping books in elementary school libraries that teach them how to perform oral sex. Why because if that cannot be “banned” you support it.
Cannot have it both ways…
No one is quoting you, we are telling you the sum of what you are supporting. You are still trying to have it both ways. Stop with the name calling, a clear sign you have nothing to add to this topic.Go back through this thread and tell me where I’ve said that. Quote it for me, so I can see it. I need to specifically see the post where I said I support an elementary student learning about oral sex…
Where are you simpletons getting the idea that I support any of this ****??? SHOW ME WHERE I’VE SAID ANY OF THIS. You can’t, because I HAVEN’T.
What I HAVE said is that “other books are being banned.” How the **** are you getting the idea that I support the sexualization of children from that statement????????
I’m worried about history books being removed. Several things I’ve seen have shown books about Hitler, Jews, and blacks being removed for being “not on the list.” THAT is what I’m worried about. Remember when everyone was in an uproar about the left and their cancel culture? Looks like both sides may be doing it now. Can’t have kids learning about successful black people who stood up for their rights, or women who have succeeded in the work place now, can we?
Knock this **** off about me saying I support elementary kids learning about being gay, having sex, whatever. I NEVER SAID THAT, NOT ONCE. The next person who misquotes me and cannot definitively back up their statement by SHOWING A QUOTE for what I said gets reported. I’M DONE W/ THIS THREAD.
No you’re not. Let me show you what’s happening here:No one is quoting you, we are telling you the sum of what you are supporting. You are still trying to have it both ways. Stop with the name calling, a clear sign you have nothing to add to this topic.
You either agree with laws being passed that do not allow elementary libraries to have oral sex instructional books or you do not. That simple.
On a broader point, do you believe all books of all topics should be in elementary school libraries?
Gold. Just shows how out of touch they really are.I'm sure people can find plenty of vacation opportunities in chicago as an alternative to Florida.
To me it is common sense that elementary school libraries materials were monitored for appropriateness until the activists took over, abused the discretion, and forced this action. Go tell them they were wrong and to stop it. Hundreds of examples of this posted on INGO alone. Do you really think there is great momentum to ban books on the holocaust in schools? Some parts of the holocaust, particularly graphic photos are not appropriate for elementary kids IMHO. We are talking elementary school libraries not public libraries, there is a difference to be expected IMHO.No you’re not. Let me show you what’s happening here:
Regular people: “They’re allowing inappropriate material into school libraries. We should stop it.”
Other regular people: “OK.”
Regular people: “Let’s ban books containing inappropriate material.”
Other regular people: “OK.”
Someone from the school board of education who’s clearly an idiot: “OMG, there are some scary photos in this book about WWII and the Holocaust, it’s not approved. OMG, there’s some scary stuff in this book about equal rights, it’s not approved. Rinse and repeat.”
Me: “Y’all, they’re forcing the removal of a lot more stuff than they originally said they would!”
INGO: “YOU SUPPORT PEDOS!!!”
See how idiotic that is? Some of you are reading WAAAAY in between the lines to find things I NEVER said, and then saying I said them. It’s lazy, it’s cheap, and it’s cowardly. Stop it.
I do agree with them. I do NOT agree with how they’re being implemented. I fine with the idea in principle, as I’ve said countless times. It how it’s being abused that’s the problem. BOTH SIDES are taking advantage of a sick situation in their own ways. This shouldn’t this difficult to grasp, but here we are…
I’ve answered this question already. Reading is hard, huh?
I think that you should probably not indiscriminately take the word of the people who are telling you this. I’m not denying that no one is removing books that shouldn’t be removed. But find out who exactly is getting them off the list and what their motivations actually are.Go back through this thread and tell me where I’ve said that. Quote it for me, so I can see it. I need to specifically see the post where I said I support an elementary student learning about oral sex…

Correct. If they have to lie to have this to complain about it must not be that big of a deal…I think that you should probably not indiscriminately take the word of the people who are telling you this.
we have some right hereJust another variation of the same old Democrat shtick that anybody who isn't a Democrat is a "racist" and hates everybody who isn't white.
I'd think people would wise up to this BS, but I guess there's still enough gullible people who still fall for it.
