Last week in Massachusetts, a concerned father took a cheap shot at martyrdom when he refused to post bail after being arrested for trespassing on school property. Care to guess what made this man plant himself outside his son's kindergarten classroom?
He was apparently outraged by a booklet his son brought home that introduced all the different kinds of families. Since gay marriage is thankfully legal in the New England state, the booklet of course included same sex couples and their children.
What an outrage. How dare public education attempt to combat prejudice through knowledge.
The real outrage in this situation is that the purpose of public education, involving heightened awareness through learning, could be so blatantly neglected.
With the growing diversity of both national and global culture, it remains the responsibility of the school system to provide its pupils with all the appropriate skills needed to be conscious, contributing members of our society. Educators have no place in robbing students of the familiarity and tolerance gained from being neutrally exposed to the variety of people they will someday encounter.
The booklet handed out at the Massachusetts elementary school was hardly propaganda, as the father told reporters, it was merely meant to inform, as is the essence of education. Also claiming that homosexuality was a sin, he insisted that the school inform him immediately the moment being gay was mentioned anywhere near his son. The teachers agreed to do their best.

And that, my friends, is the reason I left Mass forever.
Is this a new one or the same headline that's been posted again and again?
How much does this idiot get paid to write this trash?
Ping.
New article.
I could swear this is about the 10th article I've seen about a dad and a gay book in kindergarten class in Mass. . Must be a new pandemic or something.
Indoctrination. Paint a happy face on hedonism. Call it "gay". The Sex Positive Agenda seeks to end moral judgement on ALL sexual activity at every age.
Civil protest is a right in this country. Get 'em while they're small and you've got them for life.
The Shadow Knows...BWAHAHAHAHA:
As for my views, no boook with sexual overtones should be passed out in a kindergarten class or in any elementary school. I am a first grade teacher myself and would never think about doing something like that. Why does "tolerance" for both sides have to be all about the gay issue?
Homeschooling solves this little problem.
And homosexuality is an anomaly in nature. It should be mentioned only in medical school as a deformity or a mental disease. Especially not in a kindergarten classroom
Can't say I disagree.

It presented the lifestyle as "normal". That is propaganda. I did not say it was necessarily "harmful", but it is outside of the norm of centuries of civilization around the world. "Same sex couples raising kids". That "need" to include such perversity, er diversity, is propaganda.
Also claiming that homosexuality was a sin, he insisted that the school inform him immediately the moment being gay was mentioned anywhere near his son. The teachers agreed to do their best.
Again, it is found as an immoral act around the world among many cultures for the ages. In England, they are banning Piglet and piggy banks because muslims are upset. It is the LEAST that liberal educators could do in America.
True, but then it creates homicidal mothers...ya pick your poison.
What is the full name of this publication???
The Daily .. what??
The Daily Pederast?
The Daily NAMBLA Bulletin?
The Daily I'm not personally homo,but I am a PC idiot?
In England, they are banning Piglet and piggy banks because muslims are upset.
Really??? Holy Cow!!!
The Sex Positive Agenda is not just about teaching Homosexuality as "normal", it is about getting everyone sexually active at every age. They believe abstinence is wrong because it is a denial of desires.
The homosexual agenda is merely the battering ram.

Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb (not you). It's just like the guy who got on me for my views about not living together befor emarriage. He said, "Don't you want to try her out first?" Made me think he was talking about buying a car.
Piggy banks banned on Muslim fears (The madness continues)
