    Reminds me of the same old WHITE EVANGELICALISTIC mentality that started the Beatles Ban and the tons of Beatles records that ended up in protest bonfires that swept across the Church Parking lots of the mid-west and Bible Belt of the south, after John Lennon said in a small-town local news reel, "Right now the Beatles are more popular than Jesus"!

    I know what John was talking about because I saw it with my own eyes. I saw the Beatles in Concert along with my two sisters, and my feet was literally sitting in a pool of urine that was streaming down the floor, from the over-excited teenage girls during the concert. And all I could hear was their screaming and crying! I'll never forget it.

    I mean, John Lennon was actually just mocking his fans for being so overly crazed and pawing after them like idols. I mean, they weren't ready for all the screaming and going so bananas over them during their concerts, the fans couldn't even hear the music, and the Beatles couldn't even hear themselves play, and the fans were so much more into the Beatles image than their beautiful music and lyrics, which was what the Beatles wanted the most appreciation for themselves and what they wanted to be best known for.

    They wrapped up their American tour, and never came back again. Never even toured again- and returned to the studio until they split!

    No joke. I take this stuff seriously.

    It is easy to miss the yearly renewal. Think about it. You get it approved on Monday, September 1st one year, and Monday, September 2nd the next year, and you have just committed a FELONY!!!
    That's right.

    It has always been a crime to bring certain books to school and teach from them.

    Nah. You don't understand it at all.

    A felony is whatever the State defines it to be.

    Given the one year limitation, do not assume that having a book approved means you can avoid prison. If it were just an administrative issue, then you could make such an assumption, but this is a criminal issue.

    It is good to see you are beginning to understand the diabolical nature of this crime.
    It is not a crime to bring books into school.

Education has always had a tinge of politics attached to it, but nothing like it is becoming in MAGATLand now. You pathetic, terrified losers are sure that if children learn about slavery and racism and LGBTQ ppl, that somehow they will never vote for another (R) again.
    What is a MAGAT??

    Yes, you would absolutely rat out another teacher. You would relish it, because your character is very similar to DeSantis.
