BOOK BANS: Conservatives are not for that

| April 7, 2023 1:00 AM

In the Sunday Press Editorial, the unnamed author, falsely claims conservatives are book banning. We’re not for book banning, but we are questioning the motives and lack of common sense used by radical liberals sexualizing grade-school children. Why has it become so important to have books depicting graphic sexual acts practiced by the LBGTQ+ community available as training manuals in our school and public libraries.

We believe children should be children and not sexually indoctrinated by our schools and library systems. There is no place in public schools for such graphic and LBGTQ+ written material. Public libraries should keep this material out of the children’s section and placed in an age appropriate location and monitored. Our legislators should make illegal for K-12 schools to provide such materials in their class rooms or libraries with severe penalties.
