There's Nothing Un-American About Protecting Your Kids
American Thinker ^ | 3 Aug, 2023 | T.R. Clancy

As the theme of this year's Pride Month — "We're coming for your children" — echoes, more and more parents are speaking out against their kids' exposure to divisive Critical Race Theory, pornographic materials in school libraries, and exploring with six-year-olds how they can change their sex. By this spring, more than half of U.S. states had passed laws prohibiting curricula promoting radical ideologies, including Florida, New Hampshire, and Tennessee. Because the strategy of the progressive education establishment depends on forming today's captive schoolkids into tomorrow's leftist foot soldiers, they've moved to DEFCON 1.

Moms for Liberty is one of the more effective, and rapidly growing, grassroots parent organizations. Their mission: "educating and empowering parents to defend their parental rights at all levels of government."

But they and similar organizations are David fighting Goliath, normal moms and dads facing down radical school boards and Democrat-owning teachers' unions. Last summer, the National School Boards Association colluded with the Biden administration on a letter urging the DOJ to treat protesting parents as "domestic terrorists." Attorney General Merrick Garland hopped to it, and "at least dozens" of parents were investigated by the FBI.

This June, the Southern Poverty Law Center, in its own right a hate group and "highly profitable scam," hung the "extremist" label on Moms for Liberty.

On the SPLC's cue, Svante Myrick, president of People For the American Way, published his own piece attacking the group, "Fighting censorship is a proud American tradition." In it, he slurs Moms for Liberty as "un-American," equating them with Nazi book-burners. Because Moms for Liberty supports removal of prurient and age-inappropriate sexual — in fact, pornographic — material from school libraries, Myrick, citing the "early and foreboding event" of the May 1933 book-burning in Berlin, falsely charges that the organization "embraces book banning...

Exactly, that’s part of being a parent, protecting your children from harmful negative influences.

When someone says “we’re coming for your children,” you have every reason to believe them, and act accordingly.

People here really need to realize how stupid people can be.

I told a Newsom for president supporter that he signed a law allowing the state to take kids away from their parents and sterilize them. Therefore parents won’t vote for him.

She said transitioning kids to another sex is not the same thing as sterilizing them.

Yes Democrat voters really can be this stupid, to the point of not even protecting their kids.

(She said transitioning kids to another sex)

And she’s probably stupid enough to believe that is ACTUALLY possible.

If she’s a Democrat.
