Good, stop attacking libraries, parent your children. If you don't want Timmy reading books from the YA section at 6 years old, then don't let him check shit out from the YA section. Lazy fuckin dumbshits.

It's not about what their kids can read, they don't want anyone's children to read them. The entire point is to limit the perspectives available to children so they don't grow up seeing LGBTQIA+ people as people who deserve rights like """""normal""""" (in their mods) people get. They want them to go back into the closet where they don't have to think about or, dare I say it, admit to themselves that they are interested in those """"""yucky"""" behaviors.
These people freak out over the increase in LGBTQIA+ identification, as if people didn't previously feel this way, they were just too scared to say anything because they didn't want to end up like Matthew Shepard.
It’s really sad this whole ordeal is happening in my neck of the woods. I watched one of the city council meeting where books being banned was being debated and the only person really making the case to ban them was a suited up guy from out of town.
It’s all Astro turf and bs for conservatives to latch on. Good people are fighting though so I have faith.
