Madison County Public Library administrators were asked to go over a list of potentially “sexually explicit” books to be moved from the children’s and young adult section to the adult section. The majority of these books were about the LGBTQ community. At least one was added to the list because the author’s last name is Gay.

    Is this the family everyone keeps talking about when they say The Gays are destroying everything? Are they like the Sachlers?

        It’s mostly a family Christmas newsletter-type deal with updates on what all the Gays are up to. Mary Gay tends to get a lot of coverage.

        Today : Gay

        Tomorrow : Also Gay

        Oh wow, looks like I’ve got “be Gay” down every day for the whole year!

        You know what isn’t here? Forcing other people at the point of a sword to follow my religious beliefs about sexuality, gender, and expression. Not a single minute of that in the whole schedule.

    Reminds me of that time when some Christian website had put an RSS news feed on their home page, but of course the owner had insisted on putting a word filter on it.

    So the website had a headline about “Tyson Homosexual” winning gold.

    People immediately started wondering what kind of headlines the website would have on the anniversary of the historic flight of Enola Homosexual and the Hiroshima bombing.

    I’m impressed. The author is so committed to brainwashing our innocent children into having sex that she went back in time and gave herself the name Gay.

    Soon there will be a law to change her name automatically into “Marie-Louise Straight”, so that administrators will be happy.

    I may be off my rocker here but I will bet the author has a discrimination lawsuit, if he finds a cleaver enough lawyer to argue the semantics of it… also gay used to and still does mean happy and was used as late as the 80s in the USA… it only recently changed since the 90s to mean an orientation… so I bet this author could have an interesting day in court…

    Wait until these people remember that the bomber that dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, an act of heroism and a very much necessary slaughter of 100,000 civilians (don’t worry, they were the bad guys), was christened Enola Gay.
