    I don't think letting the community decide will mean what you hope it would mean.

    You would have plenty of Urban areas banning the bible.

    You shouldn't stop. All books should be legal. And if the author does something illegal he can be thrown in jail and have the proceeds confiscated.

    ABM, there are no threads whatsoever in here that strictly stick to on subject. Every single one of us wanders, even you. This may not be the best way to go but given human nature we better all get used to it.

    As much as I'd love it, I don't think even the Bible belongs in our schools.

    That's not what I was referring to. Go back and look at Uncle Cliffy's scoldings. That's what I was referring to when I made that particular comment.

    Let’s be very clear on this subject…..I wasn’t “scolding” you. “Scolding” is much too nice of a word. I was calling out your racist, bullshit and very calculated trolling. Stop playing the victim card. You bring the shit down on your head all by yourself and you do it deliberately because it gets you the attention you apparently need. Grow the fuck up.

    And it’s MY prerogative to respond as I see fit. And don’t say it isn’t. See how that works? And your “whole ‘nuther way of thinking” sucks….and is why this country is circling the bowl.

    The difference is, I don't make personal stabs. Conversely, you seemingly can't help yourself from the same.

    DeSantis: Latest tourist numbers higher than before pandemic


    FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. – Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says the number of tourists coming to the Sunshine State in the last quarter of 2021 surpassed the visitor count in the same quarter before the start of the pandemic.

    Florida had 30.8 million tourist visits between last October and December, a slight increase over the fourth quarter in 2019.

    It was the second consecutive quarter in which Florida tourist visits surpassed those from before the start of the coronavirus’s spread in the U.S. in early 2020.

    DeSantis has campaigned against mandates that other states are employing to fight COVID-19.

    On Tuesday, he credited that policy with the influx of tourists.

    Of course it does, it can be used as part of many history projects in conjuncture with other books and sources.

    ABM now trusts polls!

    I absolutely disagree. I don't want any "community" saying what I or anyone else can read. If it offends you, don't read it. If you don't like a movie or TV show, don't watch it. Your prerogative.

    Schools should not be about teaching the prevailing views of a community.What should be vetoed along with Holocaust, slavery, racism, anything about sex, anything about LGBTQ+ people? Evolution? There were people protesting The Good Earth, ffs, because of the description of O'lan breast feeding! Of course parents should be involved in education but they are not there to veto anything that makes them uncomfortable. Learning is NOT comfortable. Fairy tales are comfortable but life isn't a damn fairy tale.

    Oh, am I allowed to say fairy now? Or is it covered under Florida's "don't say gay" bill?

    If calling your posts racist (based on your posts, links and opinions) is a “personal stab”, then so be it. The conclusion is as obvious as your intent. We’re never going to get on the right side of history without calling out the indefensible. Like I said, you deliberately set yourself up as a target so you can play the injured party. That’s a pretty fucked up game………..

    They can weigh-in on whatever they'd like as they're the one's paying for it.

    As I've mentioned, this is a DeSantis thread. If you don't like what you're reading, then DON'T CLICK ON IT AND LEAVE THE REPRIMANDS OUT OF IT!
