FARMINGTON, UT, November 15, 2012, (LifeSiteNews.com) The ACLU has filed a lawsuit to force a Utah school district to keep a lesbian advocacy book on elementary school library shelves.
In the Davis School District in Utah, children as young as kindergarten age can check out a homosexual propaganda book called In My Mothers House, about three adopted kids and their lesbian mothers,” if their parents sign a permission slip.
The book was removed from shelves after another Windridge mother complained to school officials when her kindergartner brought it home. It is presently kept behind the counter.
This minor obstacle motivated the ACLU to seeking to force the school district to put the book back on its library shelves, making it available to all children without restriction.
The only person participating in the “class action” lawsuit is Tina Weber, whose children are enrolled at Windridge Elementary School in the district, the school at the center of the controversy over the book.
In Our Mothers House was added to libraries in five of the districts 50 elementary schools after administrators learned that a Windridge Elementary student was being raised by lesbians.
After a kindergarten student brought it home, a group of concerned parents brought a petition to the school asking that the book be removed.
A seven-member parent-teacher committee decided that the book would remain in library collections, but should be kept behind the counter instead of on the shelves. They said the book did not comply with state law barring homosexual advocacy in school curriculum.
The legal director for the ACLU’s Utah chapter told Reuters that Weber read the story together with her 6-year-old daughter.
Tina Weber said in a statement that, while other parents have the right to limit what their children read, they should not have any influence over what library books are available to others.
I don’t believe it’s for anybody else to tell me how to raise my family, Weber said. I would just hope to see the book get back on the shelf so all children have access to it.”
Davis School District spokesperson Chris Williams told Reuters that the district stands behind its decision to require students to have parental permission to check out the book.
We still feel very comfortable with the process we followed, which is laid out in district policy,” Williams said. We still believe that at no time did we take parents out of the driver’s seat.

It is unintentially hilarious. He gives tips on how to stick it to the man. But he clearly states, do NOT steal MY book. The bookstore owner is a small businessman, and shouldn't be punished.
Other than that, steal from OTHER businesses.
To tell you how dated his book is, one of the "money saving tips" is to avoid pay toilets by sneaking under the stall.

Can they check out Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Rielly, Sean Hannity or David Limbaugh's books?

Behind the counter like all ADULT BOOKS should be.

Warning, Ms Weber is raising her daughter (or is it her gf daughter?) to become a LESBIAN

hey, DUMBA$$, a 6 y/o doesn't need to know about your IMMORAL LIFESTYLE!!!
I dont believe its for anybody else to tell me how to raise my family, Weber said. I would just hope to see the book get back on the shelf so all children have access to it.
Translation: 'I don't care if I live IMMORALLY and I want all public school kindergarteners to have access to this WONDERFUL IMMORAL LIFESTYLE without their parents -- who needs a male anyway -- permission!!'
Davis School District spokesperson Chris Williams told Reuters that the district stands behind its decision to require students to have parental permission to check out the book.
Chris Williams, you are an ENABLER to the IMMORAL HOMOSEXUAL COMMUNITY!! You should tell that IMMORAL PERSON that the book will be sent to the dump.
What is happening to UTAH??

This is utterly revolting. ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL! We should be asking ourselves: Why is a tiny percentage of the population - most likely way under 2%, Gallup's recent poll of 3.4% notwithstanding - controlling everyone? Who died and left the perverts in charge of everything? And just WHY are the rest of us letting it happen? And does anyone not yet understand this simple fact:
They ARE after the children!
If people kept stealing those horrible books....hmmm
Our property taxes pay for those books, they are ours...;)
Be a “Taker” - it’s all the Rage....
(government controlled lawsuits are stupid)
This can no longer affect me, but if it did, and any child of mine brought this book home, it would accidentally be lost without a trace. Kids lose stuff... My kids would NOT have permission to check out books from such a library, and I would forewarn the school in writing of that.
