Virginia Public Schools Reinstates Two Books Despite Complaints of Pedophilia and Pornography
Fairfax County Public Schools has reinstated two books despite complaints from parents that the literature depicted and legitimized obscene and pedophilic material. Parents confronted the school board with the graphic images contained in the books beginning in September. Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) announced the books were restored to libraries after two committees reviewed them.
The books, “Lawn Boy” and “Gender Queer” have been determined by the District as helpful to the LGBTQ community. Fox News reports “Lawn Boy” by Jonathan Evison includes long sections of a boy reminiscing about explicit experiences he had at 10 years old. “Gender Queer: A Memoir” is by Maia Kobabe and includes photos of sexual acts between a boy and a man.
Virginia mother and president of Parents Defending Education, Nicole Nelly, told Fox News last week, “It’s appalling that Fairfax County’s response to parental feedback is to quibble over the definition of ‘pedophilia’ and to shame and denigrate families who are concerned about this material.”
“By attempting to normalize this content – and reinstating these books under cover of darkness right before Thanksgiving break – FCPS has demonstrated that in their eyes, parental input is a bug, not a feature, in the system” added Nelly.
In an interview with Fox News, Stacy Langton, one of the mothers who first confronted the school board, says “plenty” of Democrats and liberals are also calling her to say they “don’t want their kids exposed to this in school…this is FCPS coming out and explicitly saying they are in favor of porn in schools for your children.”
FCPS, however, claims that two committees comprised of school administrators, librarians, parents, and students determined that the books did not contain pedophilia, nor did they violate regulations by including obscene material.
“The decision reaffirms FCPS’s ongoing commitment to provide diverse reading materials that reflect on our student population, allowing every child an opportunity to see themselves reflected in literary characters” said FCPS in a released statement.
“Both reviews concluded that the books were valuable in their potential to reach marginalized youth who may struggle to find relatable literary characters that reflect their personal journeys” the statement continued.
Michael Sabbeth, Colorado attorney and author of “The Good, The Bad & The Difference: How to Talk With Children About Values” says “the Board’s assertion cleverly employs a logical fallacy—a strawman argument.”
While the board’s “refutation alleges the material affirms students with ‘marginalized identities’ and acknowledges the ‘difficulties nonbinary and asexual individuals may face’, their justification ignores and fails to negate allegations of obscenity, pornography and or pedophilia” states Sabbeth.
“Ironically, the Board’s justification demeans those it alleges to support. If, for example, pedophilia is in a book, arguing it helps youngsters is morally beneath contempt. To virtuously support those individuals, the Board need do no more than advance this unambiguous message: Treat all people respectfully” Sabbeth concludes.
In a Las Vegas suburb, a family’s experience has put them into the realm of the unexplained. What started as a crashed object in their backyard and sightings of “non-human” beings has now unveiled a captivating connection to two historic UFO incidents—Trinity and Rendlesham Forest.
It was a late April night when the people of Las Vegas witnessed something extraordinary. Multiple witnesses, including law enforcement officers, observed a streak across the sky. Body cam footage from one of the responding police officers displays the spectacle. As reports flooded in from across eastern California, Nevada, and Utah, the American Meteor Society took note, hinting at a spectacle that defied easy explanation.

Responding to the call, two police officers were dispatched to investigate the strange occurrence. The body camera footage obtained from both officers captured their initial reactions, reflecting a mix of nerves and intrigue.
Conversations between officers and witnesses revealed astonishing claims, with one witness describing a “big creature” standing around 10 feet tall.
While one officer proceeded to inspect the backyard, the video footage from his body camera was redacted by Metro police due to privacy concerns, according to reports. Witnesses conveyed their belief in the sighting, despite expressing skepticism before. Simultaneously, another witness informed the police about an SUV circling the area, potentially adding another layer of mystery to the incident, according to reports.
But this was just the beginning.
As the incident unfolded, an web of connections emerged, drawing parallels to historical UFO encounters that have perplexed and fascinated humanity for decades. Among these, the Trinity Incident stands as a testament to the enduring mystery surrounding UFO phenomena.
The Trinity Incident, which transpired in, July 1945, was set against the backdrop of the world’s first atomic bomb test in New Mexico. Witnesses, present during the event, reported a peculiar sighting, a UFO defying the laws of physics, hovering near the blast. The incident became covered in secrecy due to its connection to the classified Manhattan Project. This led to the rise of speculation about extraterrestrial involvement and their interest in our technological advancements.
Fast forward to December 1980, when another chapter in UFO history was written, Rendlesham Forest, an event that unfolded near the RAF Woodbridge base in Suffolk, England. Military personnel stationed there encountered inexplicable lights and an otherworldly craft nestled amidst the forest. The Rendlesham Forest incident remains one of the most compelling UFO cases on record, captivating the world with its documented evidence, eyewitness testimonies, and subsequent investigations.
Now, as the Las Vegas incident captures global attention, trending on Twitter, its connection to these historical encounters become apparent. The connections are astonishing, a crashed object, sightings of strange beings upwards of 10 feet tall, and eyewitnesses who stand by their claims, just as those who witnessed the Trinity Incident and the events in Rendlesham Forest did.
What does this all mean?
In this connection of past and present, the Las Vegas backyard encounter serves as a gateway into the world of UFOs. It calls the worlds to explore the uncharted territories of the unknown, where the boundaries of our understanding are challenged.
As speculation continues to surround this perplexing event, the encounters with unidentified phenomena and the mention of “big creatures” with large gazing eyes, in a suburban backyard have left the community and investigators perplexed. The quest for answers in this unusual case remains ongoing, as locals ponder the possibility of an otherworldly presence.

We had the same book, Gender Queer in our school library . Our school district has this available to 6-8 9-12!!! The parents, grandparents and others bombarded the district, it was removed for about one week. The Library Media Specialist deemed it just fine and guess what? It’s back on the shelf! We are a tiny district about 50 miles north of NYC. A very conservative town. 90% of our school board has lost their minds. We have had an influx of progressives in the last year. Our district K- 12 has about 950 students. We feel helpless and are wondering if law enforcement can confiscate the pirn

The immediate solution is not rocket science. REMOVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM THE SCHOOL !
While you are standing around wringing your hands wondering ‘what to do’ your children are being damaged and defiled.

How about you guys get together and hire a competent lawyer and sue those responsible? Crying over something like this accomplishes nothing. It is time to fight back. How about weekly marches in front of the school or the board offices? The time has come to fight back, and get out of your lethargy and learned helplessness. And teach your children, by george, you must take an active part against this brainwashing.. if you do it right it will backfire on the culprits.

Gee, I remember a time when porn, of any type, written or depicted, was illegal to possess in a school or on it’s property. When child porn was illegal to possess, written or depicted, anywhere and if caught with it, made you subject to jail time. Thanks to the left, that’s all been changed and our kids are now subjects for the depraved to accost.

You are not dealing with ‘people’, you are dealing with minions of the devil. The orders come down from him, and to them, those orders are paramount. YOU mean nothing. Destroy society, destroy freedom, destroy families, destroy the U.S., etc., THAT is all that matters to the devil. “All that is necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing”. Doing ‘something’ means to pray AND stand firm for what is RIGHT ….. and not leave it up to someone else.

This school district is pushing child sexual exploitation and they should be charged with crimes.

I believe school boards are elected. This board is obviously composed of a majority of sexual perverts. Perhaps at a little more attention next election. Few things are more important than educating our children. Look how education has failed the current board.

The school board should most certainly be voted OUT.
But in the meantime, children are being damaged and defiled and need to be REMOVED NOW from the school!

swipe the books and throw them in the trash. When they’re replaced…swipe them again. Democrats would call that activism!

All of this only reinforces how stupid it is to risk imprisonment for having child porn on personal computers when all they had to do was ask their kid to check out said porn for them from the elementary school library.
