Because I don't want kids in elementary school concerned with sex. They need to focus on learning more important subjects. A child in kindergarten dosen't need to know about oral sex, anal sex or masterbation.

Hitler,and slave owners were also against books,and minorities/women being educated. They were more desirable. Meaning they were to dumb to know when someone was pissing on them and telling them it's raining. I guess that's why Donald Trump said he LOVES the uneducated. And, President LBJ said give

Wasn't that long ago the liberals/socialist wanted to ban Mark Twain books due to their interpretation of 'racism'. Its not OK when they do it, not OK when 'our side' does it. Protecting your kids starts with you, not banning books.

The fact that legislators would use this for political gain and schools would use this as a financial game (teaching to the tests so they get an A rating, which gives them more money, wash-rinse-repeat). is a no from me. Didn't they learn something from the failure of the No Child Left Behind?

I personally don't care, but I understand why it is important to so many. I'm embarrassed how bad our 'top tier' athletes are doing. Is this the best we have? I've seen Disney on Ice, couple of those folks surely could have been available.
