Please show me any elementary school in VA that has any book containing "illustrations of teens having sex".

+1.

I'm sorry. There is no comparison with states that literally ban books.

Why do people say this? It’s so obviously partisan. I don’t want to ban any book. They can continue to be published, printed, and then every county library.

It is true, I do not want porno graphic content in ES/MS.

Book-banner denies being a book-banner.

Not to mention, why are these posters so gullible? Have they actually seen graphic sexual content in THEIR kids elementary school? No. Fox News or whoever just told them to freak out so they did.

They likely don't even have kids in elementary school.

This. So many of these folks are homeschool or weirdo religious-niche private school families.

The banning isn't because the books are in elementary schools (they aren't), it's because parents don't want them in schools, period, even though they are fine to be in a highschool library IMO. Stop talking about elementary school, you're being disingenuous.

OK. And Gender Queer isn't in elementary or middle schools.

Some extremists were also criticizing a popular home sex ed book and called it "porn".

Americans are stupid

What do you all think will happen when a dictator takes over?

Defunding the police and abortion will be the least of our worries.

Installing a dictator makes us North Korea or Russia.

It boggles the mind that Americans vote for republicans who are going to install a dictator.

That alone should scare the crap out of all of us.

The fact Americans do not get this is incredible

They only want to talk “Gender Queer” and have blinders on to everything else.

Violent crimes happen more than abortions either about 33% more violent crimes than abortions occurring every year in the United States.

If you look at overall crimes, there are 17 crimes committed for every abortion in the United States every year.

Defund the police and the occurrence of violent and non violent crimes continues to rise. Implement reasonable abortion restrictions and abortions continue to occur although the numbers will most likely decrease.

So for those that make data driven decisions it is an easy one to make.

This is not correct at all re: abortions. It’s the opposite in epic proportions. Abortions (medical term, NOT “elective”) are so common. This is what politicians don’t (want to) understand.
They are a normal part of a women’s lifetime, affecting 50% of pregnancies.
Yes, the medical term abortion applies to all pregnancies where, to nobody’s fault, a pregnancy could not go forward. It is highly likely that each woman, if she becomes pregnant a few times in her life, will need abortion care at some point. Not providing the best care available harms a woman’s fertility, her life, and the lives of future babies that could have been!

50%? That is worldwide. US is 25%.

25% of all women - that is a huge amount of people in the US!

Yeah. The fact that Jan 6 wasn’t the end of all this nonsense is terrifying. There are people (lots of them) for whom that was not a dealbreaker.
