Oh Alabama. Sometimes you wonder why we laugh at you like a retarded child at a family reunion. <--- the most hilarious phrase i've read all day. anywho, this makes me so grateful i live in the true land of the free...Canada. that right, your America land of the free, land of the free is ours now...neener neener neener

 

Ahhhhhhhh!

 

I hope this guy will be willing to forfeit his job if, in five years time, there are still homosexuals in Alabama.

I've never got how anything in schools is defined as "promoting" homosexuality. It seems that in above example, acknowledging its existence is considered promotion. But really, short of actually including feltching in sex ed classes (sex ed in Alabama :lol, I don't understand how simply reading about the gay would lead you to do it.

But then, it's probably nothing the little **** hasn't heard before.

 

reminds me of when I was in highschool (mid 70's). A group of "do gooders" wanted to wanted to ban The Adventures of Huckabery Finn. Why ?? you may wonder ......


the answer itself is repugnent ..


because SOMETHING "must" have happened between Jim (an adult) and Huck (a prepub boy) when they were on the raft.

Don't laugh, they were serious about this.

They really did believe that Jim molested Huck and from that they wanted the book banned. How they ever thought that, is in itself perverted. Needless to say the school board turned them down.

oh, and this wasn't Alabama .. it was San Antonio, Texas. Northeast Independent School District.

 

... wow, what ignorant bastards. Most of the time people want it banned because it supposedly promotes racism or degrades the image of some towns community; both are just stupid reasons. ****** isn't a racist term until you put it in a certain context.

 

Isn't that the same state where its against the law to get married if you are a black and white couple? The state with the confederate flag on their state flag.

If so, then this homophobia does not surprise me.
Canada has its share too though. A number of gay men have been beaten to death in Vancouver in the last few years.

I think the idea of keeping gays out of the library is cuz they know that gays have a higher average IQ and they are trying to handicap them. What do you think?
Neil Young wrote a song about Alabama or something that wasn't overly flattering.
At least the song Sweet Home Alabama seems to express some displeasure.

 

very true, i read last night that B.C is the most homophobic province or something like that. the guys at my school hate gays but love lesbians. they can never say why though

 

Goddammit. Look, i really, really wouldn't care if Alabama jus ceceded from the Union. What the hell are they good for?

 

Selling comemorative plates?

 

In one of Pearl S. Buck's classic novels, one of her male characters had sex with a Chinese military man. It was an intrinsic part of the novel because it shaped the character's behavior. She was the daughter of a missionary man in China. I wonder if her books will be banned.

Probably not, since most of the characters in her books had pre-arranged marriages (usually with women who were not suitable for being whores because they were ugly). This, however, is high literature!

 

Why did the state library in Alabama close down?

Someone stole the comic book.

 

My earlier post may sound harsh--there are probably some way cool people in Alabama, and they've got enough to deal with without us making it worse.

Hey hip folk in AL, is there anything we can do to help?

 

So how exactly would they keep gays out of libraries?

 

High-tech Gaydar?

 

I don't think Jesus had anything to do with it.......no matter what they may say.

 

Yes, in depth quizzing about kylie, hot pants, queer as folk, matching chintz with chintz and the Wizard of Oz whenever you apply for a library card.

 

They read the books

Seriously I meant that in a metaphorical sense. Read the article.

 

lmfao... I meant like, will they use military or police force to keep them out? And then what, send them to jail?
