I am not debating the issue brought up in the thread. I believe parents have every right to protest books they feel are not appropriate for kids.

I am commenting on OP's attempt to create a clickbait thread title. It is as bad as the clickbait headlines put up by news organizations that so many on this forum consistently object to.

OP (you) deliberately mislabeled the thread title. And then you all go complaining about fake news in the media. Hypocrites.
Someone's upset they can't pile on about how horrible white christian men are.

Oh well.

Got anything to say about Muslims? No? Shocker.

Nope. Not my style, I repeat what others say and post, I don't make stories up. I leave that to you.

So ... Why did you come to this thread?

Keywords. That's why. Super excited to pile on!!!!! But, oh, hmm... [foot stomp]. Oopsie, white R christian men not involved.

Aren't you still upset that the board meeting was shut down? No? Why not?

Where's the insults? Left them at the door?

Not making sense this morning. Maybe another cup of coffee will help.

Are you going for the City Data "Fake thread of the year" award?
Use of that literary device emphasizes the hypocrisy and explodes the lies provided by the DOJ and media that parents having an issue at school board meeting are white supremacists and deserve to be monitored by the FBI. All others get a pass.

Wat... Muslims protesting 'Woke Politics of the Left' ~???

(for a second i thought you said 'Whites were protesting'-----my reply would have been 'Send out the National Guard' ~!!

No one said their not tax payers, no one said they can't express their opinions and challenge whatever books but its obvious you obviously missed the part where I said "They are more than welcome to challenge the books IAW the districts policy or to prohibit their children from checking out those books."

School curriculum and resources are for everyone regardless of their religious views, they can restrict their Childs access but not everyone else.

Save the Red Meat rhetoric about the books which are approved and vetted through multiple sources. Like the protesters you are free to restrict your children on what they read and you are no better or worse a parent than what you assume that I am.
