An Alabama lawmaker who sought to ban gay marriages now wants to ban novels with gay characters from public libraries, including university libraries.

A bill by Rep. Gerald Allen, R-Cottondale, would prohibit the use of public funds for "the purchase of textbooks or library materials that recognize or promote homosexuality as an acceptable lifestyle." Allen said he filed the bill to protect children from the "homosexual agenda."

... "I guess we dig a big hole and dump them in and bury them," he said.


It's good to know America has its priorities.
CBS has refused to run an ad by a liberal church promoting the acceptance of people regardless of sexual orientation because the network believes the ad is advocacy advertising.

The church also says the ad was banned on NBC.

The 30-second spot, run by the United Church of Christ, features two muscle-bound bouncers standing outside a church, selecting people who could attend service and those who could not. Among those kept out are two males who appear to be a couple. Written text then appears saying, in part, "Jesus didn't turn people away, neither do we."


Honestly? I knew things would get worse after the election, but I didn't think it'd happen less than a month afterwards.
...One last snippet of compassionate conservatism from post-election America, and a woman at Marquette tired of all that gay.

Judge not, lest...uhm, how does that go, again? I tend to skim over the parts I don't like. )
