Portland mother barred from child’s graduation after pushing back on gender curriculum
Fox News via NY Post ^ | 7/18/26 | Lindsay Kornick

Portland, Oregon, mother Allison Roberts filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against Portland Public Schools and her children’s elementary school after allegedly facing retaliation over her opposition to their gender curriculum.

According to the Liberty Justice Center, which filed the lawsuit on behalf of Roberts, she initially expressed concern last year over Meriwether Lewis Elementary School’s decision to repaint its traditional rainbow pride flag into an “Intersex-Inclusive Progress” variant to include support for racial and transgender ideology.

Though Roberts supported “being immersed” in Portland’s gay community, she felt that the new flag was “an overtly political symbol that promotes values contradictory to her Christian faith,” specifically due to its promotion of transgenderism.

Before she took any action, she discovered an “identity flower” assignment given to her 11-year-old child that asked students to identify and discuss their gender identity with classmates and teachers.

Roberts alleged that she received no prior notice of this assignment and requested a meeting with the school’s principal. After receiving what she described as an unsatisfactory response from the school, Roberts wrote an open letter to the community against the school’s policies, which she distributed on a public sidewalk outside school property.

Roberts was later issued a one-year trespass order after a heated exchange with another parent, barring her from attending school events, including her child’s graduation ceremony. When she reached out to the school for clarification, Roberts was reportedly told that it was a result of engaging in “harassment, intimidation, and threatening behavior” as part of a pattern of “animus and harassment targeting vulnerable members of [the] community.”

LOL! No need for the /sarc.

We had rainbows in our church when I was little. Of course, they were in Sunday School flannel graph lessons about Noah.

God’s rainbow is 7 colors. Satan’s pride symbol is 6 colors, reminiscent of “666”. It is a very interesting story on how the pride flag came about - even God’s providence is seen in that. It went something like the original flag had 7 colors, but when they went to mass produce it, the supplier didn’t have enough of one of the colors so they just made it 6.

Christians are the vulnerable member of the community being harassed and having a pattern of animus directed at them.

There's something wrong here...

 

 

Lot didn't seem to mind  “being immersed” in SODOM's gay community, but when it showed up at HIS door, things suddenly became a bit more clear to him!

 

What a guy!!  

 

Genesis 19:8

 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them.

 

 

Thanks dad!

Genesis 13:10-11

10 And Lot looked out and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan, all the way to Zoar, was well watered like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt. (This was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)

11 So Lot chose the whole plain of the Jordan for himself and set out toward the east. And Abram and Lot parted company.

“Which is?”

Freaks

Released on February 20, 1932, Freaks is a pre-Code horror-drama film directed by Tod Browning. Infamous for casting real-life sideshow performers rather than actors in prosthetics,
