Georgia school board fires teacher for reading a book to students about gender identity

Reply in thread

I mean I remember taking biology that went over reproductive anatomy in 6th grade. I feel like gender identity isn't any more mature of a topic than penises and vaginas. Maybe my school was an outlier though? Either way I think letting kids who might not feel comfortable with their gender know that their feelings are valid is important enough to warrant mentioning in elementary school

Guy is arrested at a city council meeting open to the public because they didnt like what he had to say about police involved in domestic violence in his city . violation of first amendment?

Wow holy fucking shit. Is there more footage of this meeting?

EDIT: didn't find footage but did find this article. I'm not familiar with this publication at all but seems to be mostly a factual retelling. Apparently he was interrupted by the mayor and asked to leave after saying that the local police department was pro-domestic abuse because they employ a domestic abuser.

EDIT 2: The article I linked actually links to a local source that has a much longer video. The dude in the video actually called the mayor and the chief of police facists.
