Muslims' fury forces schools to shelve anti-homophobia storybooks for 5-year-olds
Daily Mail (UK) ^ | April 2, 2008 | Laura Clark

Two primary schools have withdrawn storybooks about same-sex relationships after objections from Muslim parents. Up to 90 gathered at the schools to complain about the books which are aimed at pupils as young as five.One story, titled King & King, is a fairytale about a prince who turns down three princesses before marrying one of their brothers. Another named And Tango Makes Three features two male penguins who fall in love at a New York zoo.Bristol City Council said the two schools had been using the books to ensure they complied with gay rights laws which came into force last April.

The libs will have a hard awakening when they (if ever) realize that the Muzzies don’t share their liberal rainbow utopia.

The liberals will lump conventional Christians with the head pruning muzzies.

The multi-culti EU will be a flash in the pan before being taken over by Islam. It doesn’t take anywhere near a majority for them to cow the populace into submission.

Look at how willingly they throw away free speech, muslims don’t even have to threaten violence anymore, it is understood, and the europeans are censoring themselves.

The muzzies have shown time and again what they are capable of when their demands are refused. All we do is complain with words. The left fears them and not us.

Your link only give us the cover of the book and a picture of two penquins. Need a link to the article.

Unfortunately it is not in the United States the schools are abandoning the books since it says the UK. To bad, I wish it was.

"...objections from Muslim parents."

But if Christians complained they would be totally ignored and laughed at and told they were -- let's see, pick one, -- racists, homophobics, bigots, anti-multicultural or whatever.

The Sexual Rage Behind Islamic Terror

Socially segregated from women, Arab men succumb to homosexual behavior. But, interestingly enough, there is no word for “homosexual” in their culture in the modern Western sense. That is because having sex with boys, or with effeminate men, is seen as a social norm. Males serve as available substitutes for unavailable women.

Maybe Newton, MA and San Francisco could use a good influx of jihad-ready muzzies.

Something tells me WW III is getting started. After the Euro’s “tolerance” and appeasement starts claiming countries the US is going to have to go over there and save their sorry asses AGAIN.

Remember Ahmadi-Nejad saying they don’t have gays in Iran? It’s just that they don’t have a word for it.

Oh, the unfairness of it all. What we really want is to promote the wholesome goodness of homosexuality AND abase ourselves before the Muslims in a fit of multicultural self-loathing - but you're saying we can't do both?

What to do, what to do...

I told my son’s (1st grade) teacher on day one that “King and King” was unacceptable, and we would come into the classroom if she planned on introducing it. She said she had no plans to do so. If you think your school is going over to the dark side, give them a big scare by threatening them. It works.

That’s because they know the next thing following a Muslim complaint letter is a package with wires running out of it.

Dang! David Parker, in Lexington MA, should have teamed up with some Muslim parents when he complained about his son’s kindergarten teacher talking about homosexuality in class. Because he was a strong Christian, he was villified. If he’d been with some Muslim families, the school department would not have been so quick to fight him.

Well, I’m not taking sides with Islam or anything, but I’m glad these parents made a complaint about the books. (Now why don’t they go make some complaints about terrorism?)

However, you’ll notice the left will submit to THEIR complaints about homos, but when a non-Muslim conservative complains they won’t budge.

The left is in a quagmire....stand up for the Muslims because they’re a protected class under leftist doctrine, or their gay rights agenda, another of their protected classes?

Pass the popcorn...

How many homophobic 5-year-olds are there?


Every 5-year-old muslim kid in the school with a sword screaming “allah snackbar” at the every queer he sees.
