But don’t dare object to the Lexington schools teaching homosexuality to six-year olds...

Lexington, Mass., father of 6-year-old arrested, spends night in jail over objections to homosexual curriculum in son’s kindergarten class.

Don’t give them any ideas. They come up with enough bad ones on their own.

If I’m an exchange student in Norway, and there’s a dance about Norwegian pride, am I offended? No, it’s yet another way to study the natives. What is wrong with these people??

Lexington, Massachusetts?

The patriots of 1775 are so glad they fought the British for this.
