Democrats send AB 2567 to Governor Schwarzenegger

Sacramento, California – AUGUST 7 Campaign for Children and Families (CCF), a leading California organization protecting parents' rights and children's innocence, condemns the passage of AB 2567, which will instruct all California public schools to "conduct suitable commemorative exercises" in support of the anti-religious, sexual-anarchy agenda of the late San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk.

On Thursday, August 7, the California Assembly passed AB 2567 on a 43 to 26 vote, Democrats for, Republicans silently against. Earlier this week, AB 2567 passed the California State Senate on a 22-13 vote, Democrats for, Republicans against. AB 2567 now goes to Governor Schwarzenegger, whose position is unknown.

"If signed into law, AB 2567 will mean an official day commemorating homosexuality, bisexuality, and transsexuality in California government schools," said CCF President Randy Thomasson. "This will harm children as young as children as young as kindergarten.

Schools are for learning academic skills

Nope. They're for whatever who's in charge is for. Once upon a time they were for learning academic skills, today they're for political indoctrination. We've seen this before, multiple times, in the last century.

This is social engineering.

The Fed should eliminate payments to California schools in proportion to time spent on social engineering instruction, and for entire social engineering days such as gay day.

California voters should outlaw social engineering in public schools.

Maybe this has been answered already (and my apologies if it it has) but is there a link to the story or is this an email alert?

An adult that discusses sex with a child is a pervert.

And probably recruiting.

The fact is that the liberalism of California is pretty centralized to San Francisco and Los Angeles. In Ventura County, where I live, it's a conservative area.

How can I, a surf-loving California grow up on the beach eating crab and lobster girl, ski in the mountains in the morning, toast on the beach in the afternoon, see a concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl at night, how could I ever hope to explain to you why I'd rather be dragged through hot coals, cactus needles, rabid dogs, volcanic lava and shark-infested sewers than live in Arkansas, home of the Clintoons?

I'll never figure out why you live THERE and you'll never figure out why I live HERE. And both places have good and bad points.

No parent that cares about their child would let them get anywhere near a public school. The public schools are moral cesspools, and they dont educate. Time to shut down government schools completely.

Maybe they should teach anal engineering in schools; it is designed for one thing, and one thing only. It is designed for outflow only, not input. it is NOT a sexual organ. It's a sewage pipe.

Not to mention using it for something it was never designed for will void the warranty and cause premature failure of that part. The replacement kit consists of a colestomy bag.

Yep, you gotta love their priorities. Let’s all celebrate diversity and homosexual lifestyles, but not address the fact that we’re graduating kids who can’t read or do math. We’re not teaching them history or English or language skills, but we’re teaching homosexuality.

I don’t think homosexuality belongs in school. We don’t know why some people are homosexual. But it’s something that young people can deal with when they are adults, if they feel that pull to live that way. It’s not appropriate for children and adolescents to deal with this subject.

The only thing that moves the powers of the school system is....absence. when the kid ain’t there, they get no money for him. Keep your kids home whenever the schedule indicates there will be one of these events. If they blind side you and don’t publish the event, keep them home 2 or more days.

Governor Schwarzenegger should say no to this very inappropriate bill, which has nothing to do with academic excellence anything."

There fixed it.

I just wish I had children so I could keep them home that day.

Wait. Government schools have been dysfunctional for a long time; and I had the wherewithall to send my three kids to non-government indoctrinations centers.
And none of them are gay, on welfare or neurotic.

Never mind.

Funny thing is, back when they first came out with Sex Education in public schools, my Mom was furious and said it would lead to things like this. Of course, I thought it was neat. LOL

This IS NOT neat or funny!
