Not every one from Alabama is an idiot, but this guy is !

As if people from Alabama didn't have enough of a stereotype to overcome (didn't you know, we are all inbred racists) republican Alabama lawmaker, Gerald Allen, just dropped our collective IQ's by a good 50 points!! Allen has introduced a (prospective) law that would forbid Alabama public school libraries to purchase copies of books written by gay authors or featuring gay characters. "I don't look at it as censorship," says Allen. "I look at it as protecting the hearts and souls and minds of our children." How , by making them as narrow minded as he is? In his original version of the bill he even included the works of Shakespeare as part of the "homosexual agenda". Why don't we all just have ourselves a good ole fashioned BOOK BURNING ??? Hey, maybe we can burn a few crosses while we are at it ... because if books by gays are so evil , then what about books by black authors , featuring black characters , or how about women authors who have opinions that differ from his? There is a real threat here people, little kids everywhere are gonna be brain washed into thinking that they live in a country where freedom of thought and expression are fundamental parts of life . Honestly , how would you get through high school without Tennessee Williams , James Joyce and Oscar Wilde . I suppose in his ideal school students couldn't even read the Bible , it is after all chock full of violence and fornication. "It's not healthy for America, it doesn't fit what we stand for," I've got news for you Mr. Allen the great majority of people in the state of Alabama do not want a narrow minded bigot to decide what they stand for. I hope who ever elected this guy was sentenced to a life of mining snow in northern Michigan !
