Oklahoma House Passes Gay Book Ban

(Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) The Oklahoma House of Representatives has passed a resolution that would ban books on gay families from the children’s sections of public libraries.

The measure does not have the power of law but calls on Oklahoma libraries to “confine homosexually themed books and other age-inappropriate material to areas exclusively for adult access and distribution.” (source)

Well yes..... Let’s keep the gay books away from the children and make the libraries a place for the bigots, because that is what they are really trying to teach children.

I’m all for keeping adult materials away from children. I really have no problem with that. My issue is with a legislative body doing everything in it’s power to make gay people and same sex couples in particular, to appear to be deviant and something children should not be exposed too.

We are people, just like anybody else. I’m sick and tired of parents trying to instill in their children fear against us. This is how gay bashings happen and that is exactly what killed Matthew Shepard and many others like him.
