Here Are The Sexually Explicit Books Florida Is Working To Remove From Public Schools
The Daily Caller ^ | February 19, 2023 | Alexa Schwerha

Florida schools have removed more than 100 books that contain pornographic material during the 2022-2023 academic year in order to comply with state law, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

A survey of local school districts found that 153 of 175 books were removed the the district for including pornographic, violent or age-inappropriate content, according to a document obtained by the DCNF. The removed books included “This Book is Gay,” “Gender Queer,” “Let’s Talk About It” and “It’s Perfectly Normal,” all of which contain sexually explicit depictions according to snippets shared by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration.

“This Book Is Gay” is described as an informational book about growing up in the LGBTQ+ community and includes a section about the “ins and outs of gay sex,” according to Sourcebooks. Taryn Feske, DeSantis’ communication director, shared a page from the book that defines sex terminology including “rimming,” “scat,” “scissor sisters” and “strap-on.”

Shouldn’t they be sending copies to the children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews of every last employee in the education business??

Normal is fighting back against crazy.

This is really bad.

Hard to believe Americans aren’t paying attention. They must not know.

Its inconceivable to me that parents in any significant numbers would know their kid is being taught this and continue to allow it.

And to think all I could get my hands on was an old paperback copy of “Fanny Hill” I found in our basement when I was 13.

On Fox and Friends this morning they had on a lady who pointed out that the publisher of Roald Dahl’s children’s books is editing them so they are more “woke”.
But they allow those pornogrphic books in school libraries.

Well, there goes breakfast. Keep a barf-bag handy if you're going to check out the link. Anyone who is defending this twisted 'literature' needs to have this thrown in their face, hard. Maybe it'll chance their minds. If not, well, that tells you who you're dealing with.

Throw the books out with a hearty “Good riddance to bad trash”, and ignore the howling and gnashing of teeth that will inevitably pollute their airwaves.

TOM LEHRER's classic satire song "SMUT" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G33fniLwro:

...I do have a cause, though; it is obscenity. I'm for it. Thank you. Unfortunately, the civil liberties types who are fighting this issue have to fight it, owing to the nature of the laws, as a matter of freedom of speech and stifling of free expression and so on, but we know what's really involved: dirty books are fun! That's all there is to it. But you can't get up in a court and say that, I suppose. It's simply a matter of freedom of pleasure, a right which is not guaranteed by the Constitution, unfortunately. Anyway, since people seem to be marching for their causes these days, I have here a march for mine. It's called:

Smut!
Give me smut
And nothing but!
A dirty novel I can't shut
If it's uncut
And unsubt-tle
I've never quibbled
If it was ribald
I would devour
Where others merely nibbled
As the judge
Remarked the day
That he acquitted my Aunt Hortense:
"To be smut
It must be ut-
Terly without redeeming social importance."

Por-
Nographic pictures I adore
Indecent magazines galore
I like them more
If they're hardcore

(Bring on the obscene movies, murals, postcards, neckties, samplers, stained-glass windows, tattoos, anything!
More, more, I'm still not satisfied!)

Stories of tortures
Used by debauchers
Lurid, licentious, and vile
Make me smile
Novels that pander
To my taste for candor
Give me a pleasure sublime
(Let's face it, I love slime.)
You might also like
Alma
Tom Lehrer
Same Problems?
A$AP Rocky
Flowers
Miley Cyrus
All books can be indecent books
Though recent books are bolder
For filth (I'm glad to say) is in
The mind of the beholder
When correctly viewed
Everything is lewd
(I could tell you things about Peter Pan
And the Wizard of Oz, there's a dirty old man!)

I thrill
To any book like Fanny Hill
And I suppose I always will
If it is swill
And really fil-
Thy

Who needs a hobby like tennis or philately?
I've got a hobby: rereading Lady Chatterley
But now they're trying to take it all away from us unless
We take a stand, and hand in hand
We fight for freedom of the press
In other words

Smut! (I love it)
Ah, the adventures of a slut
Oh, I'm a market they can't glut
I don't know what
Compares with smut
Hip hip hooray!
Let's hear it for the Supreme Court!
Don't let them take it away!

And to think that I threw out my old, dog-eared copy of "CANDY" years ago.

Today it could be a textbook!!

One more reason Florida needs DeSantis... He’s protecting our children. God Bless DeSantis and keep him safe.

Eating poop? In a book for young teenagers? In our public school libraries?

DeSantis is taking on ‘the crazies’... Thank God he is...

Tom Lehrer, although frequently funny, was very much a leftist.
