    Is the parent afraid their kid might see grandma throwing rocks at Ruby?

    ….the complaint actually said the film was appropriate for older children…..just not 2nd graders….

    Dem parents in florida should just start asking to ban everything. If it’s that easy to disrupt the lesson plan because one parent has a problem with it then make that review board’s life hell. Give them just tons of frivolous bullshit to have to deal with.

    Well that a a fair point if the issue is whether context is provided. Because that is always what education is about: teaching kids to see nuance and change in the world not simplicity and easy answers to difficult questions.

    Republican children are going to grow up so scared of everything lol

    Like, they hate censorship but are scared to show their children anything from real life

    Just proves the stupidity of their system. They will either overload the system with requests to cancel stuff or they will censor so much that no one wants to go there

    I mean I am offended too. All that pressure on those little shoulders and grown-ass adults threatening and harassing her. Plus, it wasn’t even that long ago. She’s old 68 years old.

    she is 68, invite her to Florida school district, let her talk.

    She is great orator and gave many speeches in many schools.

    The dumb bitch had already opted out of her child seeing it. What the hell is she complaining for?

    It always amazes me that 1 person out of thousands can cause problems for the other thousands. Knock that shit off.
