There is plenty of good literature that doesn't involve some of the elements that some of these books decided to incorporate to be sensational.


Please describe the images that you are objecting to or post a photo. Until you do, I call troll.

You have no clue what you are talking about.

So, politics isn't allowed in a library? Where can politics be discussed in a high school?


Debate club.



So, you think Carrie Lukas would have been happy for her highschooler to read the books on display in the high school library, and then debate censorship of said books in the high school debate club?

Maybe that will change in the next 26 pages, but I doubt it.


Then you have reading comprehension problems.

Not surprised. Those in favor of shoving these books into kids' faces always insist that anyone who isn't must be racist/homophobic/blah blah blah. It's such a childish argument. I don't want my kids drinking underage, yet I'm a big fan of beer and wine. I don't want reading graphically sexual books at this age, yet I'm a big fan of sex. Oh, and of the LGBT community. And yes, I know they can see and read all of this online. Doesn't mean I need the school librarian pushing these books on them. No thanks.

I am a Langley parent and I don’t think most Langley parents care one way or the other about the sign. As my daughter said when I asked her what the sign said, “I don’t even go to the library so I don’t know what you are talking about.” LOL. I believe this issue came from a Cooper parent during a rising 9th grader parent meeting. I believe (but I’m not 100% sure) that this parent is the same one who took her kids to Fortestville Elementary on the Tuesday after Youngkin issued his mask Executive Order and demanded her kids go maskless, then filmed herself ranting about the injustice of it all when the school denied her request. Now she’s doing this with the book issue. I wonder what will come next?


She's using her kids as political pawns. Way to go, Mom.

This. The books were already available in the library. She (or he?) chose to make it political. There was zero need for her to do so.

And she's all over Twitter, so I guess we can name her here.

She is a public figure. At least she tries very hard to be.

Why is a parent without kids at Langley allowed to dictate what goes on at the school?

Clearly there was.

“Some adults” need to learn their place.

The irony here is that far more kids probably heard about these books because of the brouhaha than would have noticed the display in the library.

She sends her kids to schools in the Langley pyramid.
