Illinois Senate votes to require LGBT history curriculum be taught in schools
The Hill ^ | May 3, 2018 | by Morgan Gstalter

The Illinois Senate has approved a bill that would require public schools to teach LGBT history.

The measure passed Wednesday on a 34-18 vote, according to The Associated Press.

It mandates elementary and high schools teach a unit studying "the role and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people in the history of this country and this State."

School boards would be allowed to determine how much instructional time is spent on the subject.

If the legislation passes in the House and it is signed into law, Illinois would become the second state to require an inclusive LGBT curriculum.

Last year, California became the first state to use LGBT-inclusive history textbooks.

As ludicrous as requiring a course on “the role and contributions of alcoholic people in the history of this country and this State.”

Calling Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, we need you to pull the plug and allow Private Schools to flourish. This is NOT going to end well for education. I saw for myself that they allowed homosexuals to come and do events at high schools to give kids the scoop, how to place Saran Wrap on the Kazoo of your partner and THEN like the anus. Someone needs to come to their senses.

Genesis 19 will be a good reference.

Would a unit on Frederick the Great and Ernst Rohm count?

They throw 98% of the people who are normal under the bus to pander to the 2% who are mentally diseased sexual perverts.

Make you wonder how many of these senators are sexual perverts themselves, doesn’t it

Voters should throw all that voted for this out on the street.

The state is a basket case fiscally, but they manage to find time to act in something like this.

Will Rauner sign it?

If it’s wrong and leftist, Rauner will jump hurdles to sign it.

When the parents ask the kids what they got for homework and they say, “A shitty assignment,” they won’t be kidding.

I’m guessing they’ll ignore Illinois most famous example, John Wayne Gacy.

They could start with LAMBLA and introduce them to Grandpa Walton’s partner, Hay, thought every 14 year old boy needed a gay teacher.

Field trips could be to pride parades and then they could draw pictures of the butt-less short shorts for art class and count butt cheeks for math class.

Or better yet - HOMESCHOOL.
