Reporting from Sacramento -- As the battle over same-sex marriage makes its way through California's courts, another gay rights fight is smoldering in the Legislature.

Democratic lawmakers have revived a plan to require state schools to teach about the contributions of gay, lesbian and transgender Americans. They are reigniting a movement that halted five years ago when legislators approved such a requirement only to run into opposition from then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Now, with a Democrat in the governor's office, the lawmakers and gay rights activists are more hopeful that school curricula will be revised.

If implemented, the measure, which would revise social science textbooks, could have effects beyond California. The state is a major purchaser of educational texts, and publishers often produce books tailored to California that other states use as well.

The proposal would require that social science texts and other instruction include "a study of the role and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans … to the economic, political and social development of California and the United States of America, with particular emphasis on portraying the role of these groups in contemporary society."

Sen. Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) introduced the bill, SB 48....

Democrat, San FranSICKo, imagine that.

...teach about the contributions of gay, lesbian and transgender Americans....

Gosh, is there enough hours in a day to show the contributions of wanting to put a square piece into a round hole?

The problem with pimping phonyass crap like this is that most of these so called “contributions” are nothing but bull**** to begin with.

Luckily California doesn’t have any other concerns...otherwise they wouldn’t have time for this indulgence.

How can 2% of the US population have such an effect on our culture?

These queers must have more money than the Feds do because they are buying legislators, left and right, local, state and federal as easy as you and I can buy a bag of M&M’s.

I hated having to use their stupid headline, but that’s the rule on FR. The concept of “gay people” making “contributions” to society is so far beyond sane, rational, decent or moral... I don’t know what planet these so-called educators live on, but they are practicing the most obscene child abuse and at taxpayer expense. What is WRONG with the voters in this state??????????

You have to wonder about people who define themselves by what they do with their sex organs.

If this was to be completely candid and not just a one sided paean of praise, we might learn how much larger the AIDS problem in America is on account of them. IIRC, the USA is the only country on earth where homosexuals are the majority carriers of AIDS/HIV. Elsewhere it’s heterosexual relations, either normal or rape.

What, if any, do their “contributions” have to do with the fact that behind closed doors they compress fecal matter ?
