Oh no you and that garbage take can take a flying leap and move to Russia

Youngkin lied from day one

1. He’s an election denier when there was zero proof or any evidence of election fraud! Full stop 64 courts under oath hand on Bible Youngkin knew he lied.

2. Loundoun county mess that again all lies non existent crt crap.

3. Youngkin was going to do a six week ban he was caught on a hot mike he’s a liar!

4. Closing schools for covid we had a pandemic you idiot and the Republican Party didn’t care if people were dying. Fact more idiots who listened to Trump died in huge percentages. Hindsight is 20/20 we had a baffoon and liar in the wh we could have kept schools open but you idiots who couldn’t wear non invasive masks kept covid spreading like wildfires when doctors needed time to find cures. This is on Republicans not Democracts.

5. Last but not least Democracy is on the table anyone who voted for any republican is an idiot because when we lose Democracy we lose everything. Not sure why you morons do not understand we will have bread lines and Marshall law and if you think you will keep your guns after Dictatorship installed you really are dumb!

Do you or did you at the time have children in the LCPS? I did (we got the hell out of there this past summer). I saw first hand how deceptive the schools are, covering things up, exposing students to sexually inappropriate materials and on and on. The majority of people, like me, have just quietly packed and left. It’s not like this in other parts of the country for anyone reading this feeling like the county is failing your children. It’s just not… despite the bubble mentality that it’s the best!

What sexually inappropriate materials were your children exposed to? Please be specific

+1

PP said her kids were exposed to "sexually inappropriate materials" at LCPS. What materials in what grades?

This is why I can never take these people seriously. Blah blah, CRT, blah blah, sexually inappropriate materials, blah blah, groomers. But when you ask for specific incidences then it’s crickets.

I'm not that PP, but any person with half a brain would know she is talking about the graphically sexual books found in school libraries. You know, the ones that have been the subjects of many threads already.

Maybe they can provide specific examples of actual books their actual children checked out and brought home from the actual school library?

Or maybe they can't. I think the last time one of my kids checked out and brought home a book from the school library was in sixth grade.

You know kids can simply sit in the library and read books without needing to check them out, right? Which is exactly what many high schoolers do.

Yes, kids certainly can. In which case the poster could say, for example, "My child in [Grade] took [Sexually Inappropriate Book] off the shelf at the school library, sat in the library and read it, then came home and told me about it, and that's how I know."

Well again - I'm not that poster - but that's exactly what my kids both did. So there you go. Happy now?

Which grade(s)? Which book(s)?

High school. Gender Queer, Lawn Boy, and This Book is Gay. So you should be happy that these sexually graphic books are being accessed by kids. That was your mission, no?

There are other sexually graphic books in the library. Why do you only care about the LGBTQ ones?

I mean, no, there aren't. Suggestive, yes, and possibly inappropriate. But not definitely inappropriate like the LGBT ones.

I am old enough to remember when some crazy twat was trying to ban “Beloved” from an AP literature class.

screw you and your dumb abortion restrictions and "just use birth control" nonsense

anyone with a brain knows the overwhelming majority of terminations past the first trimester are done for medical reasons - either the life of the mother is in danger OR the fetus has some horrible abnormality/something incompatible with life

Stop stepping into decisions that should be made ONLY between the mother (and partner) and their medical team.

Life isn't black and white. It just isn't. The parents should not have the choice to end an ill-fated pregnancy taken away from them. It might preserve future fertility for that couple, and it certainly will lessen the pain and trauma that family faces if they are forced to go forward with a pregnancy like that.

Seriously, I am so tired of you bible thumpers who just refuse to see the human side of the draconian laws you want to pass to "save the babies" or some BS.

Sexually graphic books. There are many of those in HS libraries. PP is only concerned about the LGBTQ ones.

Very glad my fellow Virginia voters said no to the GOP’s perverted obsession with genitals and what people do with them and birth from them and read about them. Try focusing on real issues when you’re talking in public, hmm? Keep the weird sex stuff at church.

Oh, the irony. The total lack of self-awareness. Dems are the ones who WANT their favored graphically sexual books to be available in school libraries. Not Rs. How about you keep your weird sex stuff out of our schools?

He repeated, ad naseum, that Virginians wanted to be a national leader in showing the country what "reasonable abortion restrictions" are. I can't think of anyone who says: "you know what keeps me up at night, not the economy, or housing costs, or school issues, or my kids, or the job market, but whether or not my state of Virginian can be a national leader on reasonable abortion restrictions! I can't sleep." Youngkin acted as if this was THE only issue Virginians cared about, that it was a statewide concern. I suspect his same strategists from the campaign carefully crafted these talking points, and he stuck to them like flies on $hit.

From my online research only about 20% of Virginians claim to be evangelical, leaving 80% not. His claims made no sense, and his "disappointment" is insincere. Politico did a short podcast with his gubernatorial strategists right after the 2021 election that I found fascinating into his "branding". And this latest 15 week shenanigans plays right into it. Here is the link. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/11/05/glenn-youngkin-republican-strategists-519609

Weird that you would say that. Abortion seems to be very much the ONE issue that Democrats obsess over.

Yes, post-Dobbs it is the most important issue for the majority of voters in the country. All of them are pro-abortion.

Oopsie. The Republicans caught the car. Now they are stuck with it.

Interesting - and telling - choice of words. I’m pro-choice. NOT pro-abortion.

DP I am proudly pro-abortion. Some people shouldn’t be born.

WOW. Let's all absorb that for a second.

Um, systemic racism IS a thing and white privilege DOES exist. Why is it so scary to you to acknowledge reality?

And more to the point, they are but this is not stuff being taught in elementary school.

What does it have to do with sexually explicit books in elementary school libraries?

I swear, the boogeymen right wingers fear. It’s amazing the bullshit they invent.

No one said there are sexually explicit books in elementary school libraries. What are you babbling about?

High school. Gender Queer, Lawn Boy, and This Book is Gay. So you should be happy that these sexually graphic books are being accessed by kids. That was your mission, no?

So, those books were on the high school library shelves, and your kids picked them out read them in the library, and then they came home and told you about it? No, I don't have a problem with that. Why do you? I guess you should have told them they weren't allowed to read those books.

Of course, Loudoun County Public Schools has now decided that other high school kids should no longer have the option of doing what you wanted to forbid your kids from doing, at least with respect to Gender Queer.

Aww, what a shame. Sounds like LCPS finally has a little common sense. And of course, anyone can hop on Amazon or visit their local public library to get those absurd books to which you so desperately want kids to have access.

It sounds to me like you desperately don't want anybody to have access to those books in their school libraries. You get to make those decisions for your kids, although you apparently did not succeed in getting your kids to follow your decisions. You don't get to make those decisions for other people's kids.

Right back atcha. You can expose your kids to all the graphically sexual material you want - but you don't get to place that material in a public school library where anyone can walk in and look at it. How would you feel about the book "Irredeemable Damage" being available to teens in high school?

Teaching about racism and privilege =/= "CRT"
I learned about racism and privilege in elementary school in the 80's in southern VA. No one claimed I was being taught CRT, and my parents (white, middle class) didn't raise a stink about it.

Did you attend a school with a Black Lives Matter sign over the front door?
In many school systems, there's an entirely different approach than when you were in school.

Nothing at all wrong with a BLM sign.

DP. Keep it in your own yard. It does not belong at a school.

Oh no you and that garbage take can take a flying leap and move to Russia

Youngkin lied from day one

1. He’s an election denier when there was zero proof or any evidence of election fraud! Full stop 64 courts under oath hand on Bible Youngkin knew he lied.

2. Loundoun county mess that again all lies non existent crt crap.

3. Youngkin was going to do a six week ban he was caught on a hot mike he’s a liar!

4. Closing schools for covid we had a pandemic you idiot and the Republican Party didn’t care if people were dying. Fact more idiots who listened to Trump died in huge percentages. Hindsight is 20/20 we had a baffoon and liar in the wh we could have kept schools open but you idiots who couldn’t wear non invasive masks kept covid spreading like wildfires when doctors needed time to find cures. This is on Republicans not Democracts.

5. Last but not least Democracy is on the table anyone who voted for any republican is an idiot because when we lose Democracy we lose everything. Not sure why you morons do not understand we will have bread lines and Marshall law and if you think you will keep your guns after Dictatorship installed you really are dumb!

Do you or did you at the time have children in the LCPS? I did (we got the hell out of there this past summer). I saw first hand how deceptive the schools are, covering things up, exposing students to sexually inappropriate materials and on and on. The majority of people, like me, have just quietly packed and left. It’s not like this in other parts of the country for anyone reading this feeling like the county is failing your children. It’s just not… despite the bubble mentality that it’s the best!

What sexually inappropriate materials were your children exposed to? Please be specific

+1

PP said her kids were exposed to "sexually inappropriate materials" at LCPS. What materials in what grades?

This is why I can never take these people seriously. Blah blah, CRT, blah blah, sexually inappropriate materials, blah blah, groomers. But when you ask for specific incidences then it’s crickets.

I'm not that PP, but any person with half a brain would know she is talking about the graphically sexual books found in school libraries. You know, the ones that have been the subjects of many threads already.

Maybe they can provide specific examples of actual books their actual children checked out and brought home from the actual school library?

Or maybe they can't. I think the last time one of my kids checked out and brought home a book from the school library was in sixth grade.

You know kids can simply sit in the library and read books without needing to check them out, right? Which is exactly what many high schoolers do.

Yes, kids certainly can. In which case the poster could say, for example, "My child in [Grade] took [Sexually Inappropriate Book] off the shelf at the school library, sat in the library and read it, then came home and told me about it, and that's how I know."

Well again - I'm not that poster - but that's exactly what my kids both did. So there you go. Happy now?

Which grade(s)? Which book(s)?

High school. Gender Queer, Lawn Boy, and This Book is Gay. So you should be happy that these sexually graphic books are being accessed by kids. That was your mission, no?

DP I am happy, yes.

So too is the electorate. That was proven this week.

You can quit whining about this now. You lost. You don’t get to quite agitating.

I can talk about any issues I please. Glad you're happy that your kids can read about girls giving blowjobs, using dildos and vibrators.

Ok, so what grade(s), which book(s), and which school library or libraries? Specific examples, please.

DP. They all refuse to answer with specifics.

Please point me to the elementary schools that actually have sexually explicit books on their shelves.

No one said these books are in elementary schools. My kids read them in their high school libraries.

Which books? Which high school libraries?

They are currently available in all FCPS high school libraries. What’s with the interrogation? You should know this. You and your fellow LWNJs have advocated for these books from the start.

Because the PP is full of crap.

Which PP? You're the one interrogating people, even after being given the answers.

There are other sexually graphic books in the library. Why do you only care about the LGBTQ ones?

Which other books have sexually graphic illustrations/pictures? Please list them.

He repeated, ad naseum, that Virginians wanted to be a national leader in showing the country what "reasonable abortion restrictions" are. I can't think of anyone who says: "you know what keeps me up at night, not the economy, or housing costs, or school issues, or my kids, or the job market, but whether or not my state of Virginian can be a national leader on reasonable abortion restrictions! I can't sleep." Youngkin acted as if this was THE only issue Virginians cared about, that it was a statewide concern. I suspect his same strategists from the campaign carefully crafted these talking points, and he stuck to them like flies on $hit.

From my online research only about 20% of Virginians claim to be evangelical, leaving 80% not. His claims made no sense, and his "disappointment" is insincere. Politico did a short podcast with his gubernatorial strategists right after the 2021 election that I found fascinating into his "branding". And this latest 15 week shenanigans plays right into it. Here is the link. https://www.politico.com/news/2021/11/05/glenn-youngkin-republican-strategists-519609

Weird that you would say that. Abortion seems to be very much the ONE issue that Democrats obsess over.

Wrong. Virginians aren't thinking about setting a national standard of "reasonable abortion restrictions" because the current law works just fine and nothing needs to change. So no, Virginia democrats (or Republicans for that matter) are not sitting around obsessing about how Virginia needs more restrictions to be a national trailblazer in setting what Youngkin has coined as "reasonable abortion restrictions" when the current status quo works. Period. End of story. And to talk to us like he was giving us what we wanted, is treating Virginians like we are stupid. Nothing needs to change, it's fine as is. But acting like all these "focus groups" told the governor in fact that is a top priority for Virginian (adding restrictions) is from another planet.

You're proving the point. Abortion IS the one issue that Democrats obsess over. As another poster - or maybe you - put it: having "unrestricted access to abortion" is your top priority. End of story, indeed.
