Illinois Senate plan would include LGBT history in schools
Chicago Sun Times ^ | April 10, 2018

Posted on 04/11/2018 9:02:01 AM PDT by Zakeet

Illinois senators advanced a plan requiring public schools to teach a unit on the role and societal contributions of gays, lesbians and other LGBT individuals.

[Snip]

The proposal requires all elementary and high schools to teach a unit studying "the role and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people in the history of this country and this State."

"People need to see their history to understand that they are a part of our society," said Sen. Heather Steans, the measure's sponsor.

The measure would also have schools use more inclusive and "non-discriminatory" textbooks going forward.

Johnson said the measure is consistent with current law, which requires students learn the contributions of other under-represented groups, including African-Americans, Hispanics and Asian-Americans.

"We think all students are better off when we teach them what a diverse cast has contributed to our society."

I’ll take this one. Teach about contributions you say???? ok. I can think of a HUGE contribution they gave us...AIDS.

Remember those boring days way back in the 70’s when you didn’t have to wrap yourself up in saran wrap before you got laid so it wouldn’t kill you? Yup. Thanks, fags.

North American bigots must celebrate LGBTQXYZ Month in October because the rest celebrate it during the holy Black History Month.

They’ll start “outing” historical figures as queers, folks who are not around to dispute the charges. Trying to normalize faggotry.

Most homosexuals were sexually molested as children.

They seek to normalize their behavior so as to attain easier access to sexually molest YOUR children.

“Going to hell in a hand basket...”

Yes, for sure! Being homosexual isn’t normal, so attempting to normalize it in our “education system” is a travesty. Next they will be telling our kids about all the Muslim Rocket Scientists who have been responsible for our successes in space.

LGBT History: we’ve been buggering each other since the days of Sodom, and we haven’t stopped.

They should include Grandpa Walton and his communist partner, Harry Hay, who brought us the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). Hay said every 14 year old boy needs a gay teacher. What exactly happened up on Walton's Mountain with all those children?

Sexual deviancy is “wildly popular” among school “students” these days. Almost as exciting as munching Tide Pod or snorting condoms.

Will such a plan also include the history of LGBT’s spreading deadly disease, molesting a proportionally higher number of children, and assaulting people with pies?

I don’t think so. In other words, selective “history.”

Public schools are a 19th century paradigm that outlived its usefulness (other than as daycare) in the early 21st century.

The internet and sites like Khanacademy.com make it not just antiquated, but utterly obsolete.

Ah...cheer up, this isn’t so bad.

Now if they kept the 10 Commandments near the front entrance for all to see and prayer in the classroom well, THAT would be a tragedy.

Of course! We shouldn’t be able to go a single hour without being reminded that some guys like to screw other guys and some women like to eat at the Y.
And that goes for all the little school children, as well! They must be introduced to these concepts as young as possible, preferably before they even learn basic arithmetic!

The state is on the brink of bankruptcy, Chicago gang murders soaring, state pension fund on the ropes, real estate taxes untenable and these clowns wasting time pandering for votes by politicizing education.
