But who's gonna ban the ban on the book bans? Answer me that!

What about hardcore porn? Surely they won't allow that in school libraries. Surely they will "ban" it.

No, that's the purpose here. Their entire goal with this legislation is to ensure that grade school children have unfettered access to tranny porn at school.

state funding from public or school libraries that remove books from circulation will be withheld.

I suspect this bill was introduced specifically to avoid that type of material from getting banned, which blows my mind.

I'm sure they'll have a different term. Like something that characterizes heterosexual sex as porn, but gay sex as educational.

I do not support book bans.

I also don't support disseminating explicit materials to minors.

Let ADULTS read what they want. Don't provide porn to children.

There's a difference between actually banning books and providing graphic sexually explicit content to young children in school libraries, a distinction the media tends to gloss over or ignore.

Street nigras don't read books.

Come on now, let's keep it at least somewhat civil.

[–]IkeConn 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I said nigra. That is civil.

Illinois does have laws against disseminating porn to children though. Fake virtue signalling is a sign of failed politicians, who are ignoring their cities which are dying gin crime, drugs, prostitution, and crumbling corporations who die taking their job opportunities with them when bludgeoned to death by those same politicians..

Curating an age-appropriate school library is not in any way 'banning books'
