        He thinks that being involved in his children’s lives means he gets to dictate that other people’s children are raised to be bigots.

      But I don’t need to be in charge of everyone else’s kids in school. At this point I’m pretty sure you are trolling. You don’t need every book in the library to be screened by every single parent, there would be nothing left. And certainly not screened by you if you don’t even have school kids. Again - if you want your kid ignorant of everyone different from them, your remedy is homeschooling. Not censoring every challenging idea out of the public school curriculum. Some parents don’t want evolution taught in school, should schools bend to them too?

          Yes I am denying it based on direct experience, you are claiming it based on hearsay. Turn off YouTube and go volunteer at a school, if you can pass the background screening. Get out of your bubble and into the world.

          And honestly I will never understand why anyone feels threatened by gay people or families with gay parents, or men in women’s clothing or women in men’s clothing. None of that is threatening. It’s not violent, it’s not pushy, they aren’t going door to door like Jehovah’s Witnesses trying to get you to put on a dress, or telling you you are going to hell for being straight.
