They say homosexuals don't target children. But then, why are they trying so hard to get little children to read books about homosexuals?

Basically, the public schools seek to morally desensitize kids and program them into liberal beliefs.

Homosexuals are mentally ill and they are filled with a destructuve hate. All of 'em.

I'd have to take issue with this comment. Emperically, there is no objective scientific evidence to support this claim.

.."my wife saw Suzie in the Walmart and her dad dresses like a woman. The beard gave him away."

"The problem with this is that it may be seen as, 'We need to order more of these because they so popular that someone wants to keep it.'"

That might just be true but then again, they probably won't arrive at that conclusion until they become aware the thing's not around, too.
That might take years, eh? :o)

The #1 reason I thought the idea a good one, it's so *subtle*, so direct, so effective.
Hell it's merely a variation of what The Associated Press does to the news, y'know?
The trusty ol' "Sin of Omission" ploy. {g}

"Walk in to the library with white shoe polish. Do one book a day. The pages stick beautifully and no one can tell until they go to open them."

Sure, but when they wise up to that trick, I'll lay odds a trap's set & there'll be a *camera* close by.

Now if people want to do as you suggest -- & *I'd* personally suggest they think twice -- they must understand the consequences of their actions.
Because the Liberal-Socialists will really go above & beyond the call of duty, to the point of declaring it some kind of a Jihad, to catch person or persons unknown "White Handed" as it were? ;^)

While I certainly appreciate your suggestion, even am totally sympathetic to "the cause"?
What I'd hate to learn -- one day -- is that you or one of your good friends got yourselves nailed doing something like that.
Relatively petty in the scheme of things, while almost guarenteed to be blown wayyyyy out of proportion far in excess of the seriousness because of the *meaning* behind the act.

The loony left Liberal-Socialists seem to just love excoriating anyone who attempts to stop, or even interfere with, their passive attempt(s) to spread the filth they seem so fond of.
The Liberal-Socialist's SOP for dealing with descenters, right?

But there're ways to counter 'em, alright; more *passive* ways to stop their baloney dead in its tracks, Mom.

...& the "Disappearing Book" magic trick's a pretty effective way. ;^)

Whoda thunk this nonsense would pop up in North Carolina?

Rather I would say who wouldn't have thought it? We've got Chapel Hill and Asheville in the west and central, why not Wilmington in the east? This state has gone down the everloving drain. It's represented from the mix of 'citizens' we now have in this state (from the north and Mexico) to the worthless representation that won't say a single thing about this

A transvestite with a beard never dresses well. It's a law.

``What might be inappropriate for one family, in another family is a totally acceptable thing,'' said Elizabeth Miars, Freeman's principal.

Excpet if its "Huck Finn", an American literary classic. So instead, filth and propaganda like this is inserted into your child's library.

I'd have to take issue with this comment. Emperically, there is no objective scientific evidence to support this claim.

Up until about 1970, homosexuality was classified as a mental illness. The activists got it changed. Which was a mistake. This is not normal behavior and the people who suffer from this illness have high rates of suicide, depression and substance abuse.

They won't be fixed until they (and society) recognized that they are ill.

Daddy's Roommate

This story's narrator begins with his parent's divorce and continues with the arrival of "someone new at Daddy's house." The new arrival is male. This new concept is explained to the child as "just one more kind of love."

ABC A Family Alphabet Book

It's family fun from A to Z in this alphabet book that shows kids and their parents laughing, playing and enjoying family life. All of the brilliant watercolors depict families headed by gays and lesbians. "C is for cookies. Both of my dads know how to make great chocolate chip cookies." "L is for lunch. We always pack a picnic lunch when my moms take me to the beach."

123 A Family Counting Book

Have fun with the kids, moms, dads and pets in this delightful book that celebrates alternative families as it teaches kids to count from one to twenty. All of the full color paintings depict families headed by gays and lesbians. Two dads read a bedtime story to their kids; two moms share popsicles with their kids on the porch; and several families gather around the campfire on a summer night.

Who's In a Family?

This equal opportunity, open-minded picture book has no preconceptions about what makes a family a family. With warm and inviting illustrations, this is a great book for that long talk with a little person on your lap. Pencil and watercolor illustrations.

...and many more exciting gay/lesbian educational books from Our World Too

One of our neighbors has a "Butch Dad" bumper sticker complete with a gay rainbow. It would be funny if it were not real.

Homosexuals by definition can’t reproduce so they can only resort to trolling for recruits.

"Brave New World" was banned from your high school? That is one of my faorite books. Aldous Huxley had a bead on where the left is taking this world - godless, souless, sex craved, drug induced masses controlled by a ruling elite.

.."King & King soon discover that there’s no adventure more wonderful than starting a family of their own."

I wonder how they manage to do that? And here I always thought that it took a man AND a woman to start a family.

God help us. Unbelievable.
