- The school board was set to make a decision on 'Gender Queer,' the book many parents want banned from the library.
In a 4-3 vote in favor of the parents, the book will be taken off shelves and put into the hands of counselors and psychologists. Though some believe that could raise tension and problems with teens.

You don't "support" a teen who thinks he or she is gay, or any of the other "letters" by GIVING THEM PORNOGRAPHY. It is ludicrous.
have you read the book
@@vijayrikhye7723we saw the illustrations of underage gay porn. Was there something of value we missed?
I think you’re not looking at the bigger picture I don’t think little children in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SHOULD BE Taught ANY KIND OF SEXUAL CONTENT (Gay or straight ) and if you think a child in first grade needs to know about intercourse that says a lot about you 🤢
@@vijayrikhye7723 yes. it talks about how to give a bj, how to clean your rectum for you know what, how to pick up older men on grinder. do you want you grade school kid to read that?
@@vijayrikhye7723showing little kids intercouse course and an act like suc 🍆 isn’t right
I can’t believe this was even a question. So disgusting. We don’t need explicit books in school period regardless of the orientation of the author or topic of the book. It’s inappropriate
as someone who has gone to high school, you greatly overestimate the innocence of high-schoolers, also, Catcher in the Rye and Romeo and Juliet are both quite explicit in places
@@waytoobiased you only support my argument. There is a problem here. Thank you for doing that.
@@keelydriscoll7400 are you saying you want to ban Romeo and Juliet? By Shakespeare?
What has gender identity got to do with schools and learning to read, write and do math?
because gender identity is a part of being a person, and school teaches us how to be people
Trans people exist, so:
For kids who are trans, it can be helpful to see themselves in the books
For kids who aren’t, it gives them a new perspective
@@waytoobiased it’s already plastered everywhere how much awareness do we need😅…everyone’s sexual orientation shouldn’t be the next persons business neither should children be worried about man on man or woman on woman y’all’s folks are mentally deranged
LongStraightLines absolutely nothing. It's woke/pc indoctrination, plain and simple.
@@waytoobiased kids shouldnt be worrying about this stuff
@@Federal_Bureau_of_Investigatio why not? If you're trans, that might affect you as a kid
*If you are reading this, get back your Grandfather's integrity and care for the family and community, and don't allow this. For every one person who just does that, 100 people see it and realize it's okay to do what they know is right.*
If just a few more of us had any integrity, this would never have gotten past child #1.
Educators and policymakers, please keep your pornography (homo or heterosexual) to yourself and teach the children a healthy way of life, or speak the truth about social-emotional behavioral disorders and sexual deviations, which are illnesses, not pride, and can be healed.. TY
EXACTLY RIGHT
"social-emotional behavioral disorders and sexual deviations"
this phrase is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Could you elaborate?
AMEN TO THAT ! THANK YOU
@@GM14218 LGBTQIA+ usually includes:
• Homosexual (gay/lesbian)
• Bisexual (and other orientations attracted to multiple genders)
• Transgender (includes non-binary genders, which is anyone who is neither a man nor a woman)
• Queer (umbrella term, also a reclaimed slur)
• Questioning
• Intersex (body is neither entirely male nor entirely female)
• Asexual (does not feel sexual attraction)
• Aromantic (does not feel romantic attraction)
• Two-spirit (I don't fully know the details about this, but it's somewhere on the corner of queer and indigenous)
after this, I can't think of any others that don't fall under one of these umbrellas
@@GM14218 there's discourse on the two words online, they are a bit different but honestly it's not really a huge deal
Shame on the people who promoted this book as appropriate for school age children. Their computers should be searched for illegal child porn.
Kids are already exposed to way more than necessary, no need to give them a road map. Also, the real culrits have probably already placed books into the elementary school library.
jesus fucking christ, they are exposed to worse shit at church
This is the equivalent of ESRB rating a GTA game E for Everyone.
Compromise isn't always good. It wouldn't be in this case. The people pushing this ideology are sick & this needs to be rejected strongly & shut down. This book should never have been published, let alone available to a kid. No compromise.
Woahhh the First Lady that spoke at 1:30 😂 control over other peoples kids? What about my right to not expose my children to sexual predatation and things that don’t concern them AT ALL. i will teach my child about those things when I feel they should learn. Not you.
Listen to that language "for the betterment of everyone". That language is that of people who essentially want the rightful outrage to calm down and for the other side to just go along with what's being pushed. Saying that you can compromise on such a matter is ridiculous. There is no compromise when it comes to this degeneracy.
With you 100 percent!!!!!
When are the parents going to demand a real education for their [kids] students so that they graduate at the end of 12 grade so that can do 12-grade math, and read at the 12-grade level, NOT third grade? Write a 12th-grade level. Get what the citizens are paying for a good education. The parents missed a big opportunity in the midterm election. To demand that of the candidates out on their stump speeches.
try raising taxes to fund the schools more rather than lowering them, and also letting teachers do their jobs
It's simple.
1. How explicit is the LGBT book in question?
2. Are there non-LGBT books in the library that are just as explicit?
3. If 2. is true, then the LGBT book should remain. If 2. is false, then it should be removed.
Schools already decide which books to fill their shelves with. If they make it a policy to keep books age appropriate, and they do not allow sexually explicit books of hetero nature on shelves, then no exception should be made for LGBT books. But if sexually explicit, hetero, books already exist - then the LGBT books aren't adding anything new to the library except an equal level of variety.
If 2 is true get rid of them both
@@Toodream exactly, LGBT or not, it doesn’t matter, this shit is grooming.
Distributing pornographic material to minors is a crime.
Literally nothing’s stopping you from buying the book yourself if you want to read it
if you have the money to buy the book, which a fair amount of people (especially young people) don't
No other group has carter blanche to force its ideology down the throats of everyone else in society, even children. Why this ideology? It essentially involves homosexual porn being shoved onto children.
The debate is not about the information, it is about at what age do you allow schools to expose children to the books in question. The schools are part of the government, Big Brother if you will, and shouldn't cut parents out of deciding what's best for their children. Parents, you just feed and clothe them and pay all the bills, and the Government will handle their moral education, it will take over teaching them what's right and wrong. Please at six years old let's concentrate on the 3Rs. Especially when children of color are consistently behind white children when it comes to math and reading skills. How about getting all pissed off about that.
and as a stalwart pro-trans person, I would very much oppose this book being in elementary schools - 2nd graders don't need to see this stuff - and in middle school, it still might be questionable. But 9th graders (especially if you put some content warnings on the cover, which would be a good idea anyway so students can decide what *they* feel comfortable reading) would be okay.
Fantastic!!!!!
1923 The Supreme Court ruled that within the 14th amendment lies the right of the parents to have absolute control of their children's education.
This is absolutely disgusting
Groomers are working hard to make their deviant behaviors acceptable and mainstream. When deviant behavior does become normalized, those that thrive on that behavior have to necessarily become more deviant. Stand up, speak up! Refuse to acquiesce to the language or thought police. Their goal is achieved through incrementalism. Refuse to use made up terms like “trans”! Refuse to call males “her”. Refuse to believe homosexuality is somehow brave or an achievement.
"trans" is Latin, it's not made-up.
Being gay wouldn't be brave if it weren't for all the people who are trying to push gay people back into the closet - pride is a response to hate.
@@waytoobiasedYeah stf up, you don't have the right to people's children.
A big yes...
Honestly I would have bought all the books and burned them while pissing out the flames.
You deserve a Oscar🏅
The end times is coming
Thank god.. In Malaysia not yet happen..
THATS MY BROTHER!! isn’t he so cute!
Yes he is 😉😘
🥰🥰😵💫😵💫
so cute 🥰
The cutest 🥵
What a hottie 😩
What has the world become?
a place where trans people can express their genders the way they want to
Good. That shit should NOT be in schools.
They should make it that for all books the parents all get phone calls about the books they're children want so the parents get hounded all the time by the school explaining whats in different books that they're child wants to read.
Or just don't put sexually explicit books in SCHOOL libraries for kids to read.....use your brain.
@@Ge0rge_0rwell and by sexually explicit books you mean?
@@shortangel333 young fellas flirting and humping
It's time to eradicate this LGBT nonsense. They are too selfish and self-absorbed to care about anybody but themselves and their backwards lifestyles.

1:23 literaly the only intelligent comment I've seen in this situation from an adult. Thank you! Older people can be so damn annoying and entitled it's crazy... U know this is just an excuse to yell and also cure their boredom
Ratio'd
Your low IQ is showing. Parents don't want their children reading porn novels. What is wrong with you?
Your okay with Pedophilia is seems. sick
That woman is supporting degeneracy. It isn't the job of schools to push identity or ideologies. It's their job to teach them math, science, reading and writing. This is deliberate indoctrination.
That was a bullshit comment. Parents can give their kids whatever books they want at home. Parents also have the right to not have their kids exposed to stuff at school that they don't want them exposed to.
Let's just stop teaching them to read
Have you read that book🤷♀️ come on now🤪 If you’re so upset about it why don’t you buy that book for your kid and let them read it why does everybody’s child have to read it
Good
You may have seen the co parks building ball fields to subvert the gulluble. Some in a flood plain..raise the floor..debt cieling.
Maybe parents should have to approve any book their child wants to check out of the library. Better yet, maybe parents should just home school their own children, that way they can make sure what their children learn is what they want them to learn and leave the schools for those who want their children to actually learn what they need to know in real life.
@Josh fine by me as long as no taxes go to support private schools, that will save me a whole lot in taxes.
@Josh It's funny that the accusers are the ones who are being caught, charged and convicted of doing what they are accusing other people of doing. Just this week there were republican politicians in the news, 1 had been caught with a 17 year old boy who he didn't even know his name in a sleazy motel and the other was caught masturbating outside a preschool. It seems like there are 1 or 2 republicans caught practicing pedophilia a week. With all of the republicans being caught practicing pedophilia, it must mean you are a democrat. :)
Literally explaining how to give handies and blowies is what children need to know in real life? That is what these board meetings are about. You are sick.
Also, why do you think children should have access to sexually explicit books in SCHOOL? Like I said, you are sick.
That is why I am for school choice. Also believe tax dollars should follow the child to the school of their parents choice even religious schools.
Why dose this require a news story
@Josh proper term paparazzi as they aren’t journalists
Omg just let the kids read their books!!!!
Mankind was made for Gods image and likeness... man and woman He made Him... (Gen 1:27).
Mankind fell. Mankind alienated from God (Gen 3).
But God so loves.... Christ came... Holy Spirit is here... Change.... by His Spirit... into His image and likeness again... normal Zoë(divine)-life made possible again...
Man and woman He made them (John 14-17, 2 Cor 3:18, Col 3:10, etc, etc).
Amen
But…. don’t all these parents allow their kids to have iPhones? So all these kids have seen hardcore porn… in video form…. why are they so worried about some imagines in a book? That doesn’t make sense to me
Really, so you don't monitor your kids phone and teach them the right way.
Because of evil and vain imaginations that's why the world is wicked today.
It's Start with imagination.
@@Israelb7616 as you say, “the world is wicked today”. So of course I wouldn’t have children! What kind of person believes that the world is wicked but still chooses to bring children into existence? I’m not that selfish.
Haha I saw a tshirt the other day that said “People would still have children - even in hell”. Not me.
The point of my original comment was: if a child has an iPhone then that child, whether you believe it or not, has seen hardcore porn. That is a fact. So… any image in any book, by comparison, is not as bad as that.
@@NineNineOne we bring children because thats what we are. We species exist to multiply and thrive our species. Also dosent matter that stuff is at home not school.
But u want to band black history
No they want one ap course looked over because it was woke garbage, gender theory, queer theory, and feminist theory is not black history, and that's what was in the course, they were using it as a trojan horse knowing anyone who wants it reviewed will be attacked because its "black history" even when the subject matter is totally irrelevant, why don't you investigate the things that get you worked up instead of letting people use your outrage to manipulate you.
And it's ban, not band.
not right kids have the right to side to keep the book for themselves
