Two members of Moms for Liberty, a right-wing activist group, have reported several Florida school librarians to law enforcement. They claimed they had evidence that librarians were distributing "pornography" to minors and requested that law enforcement officers be dispatched. This represents a serious escalation of the tactics deployed by members of Moms for Liberty against school librarians.
We should call it in every Sunday when these people are at church reading from that filthy Bible full of porn and incest
147When their lil mini travel bible falls out of their bag in the checkout line, just start screeching,
“HEATHEN!!!! SMUT PEDDLING HEATHEN!!!”
34Yes but they are usually unintelligent and believe the writing in the book is real, so they think it's okay.
So many of my fellow Americans are actually fucking stupid
16No, no, that's a godly incestuous drugged rape scene.

These right wing groups have fundamentally altered my perception of the meaning of the word liberty.
115Welcome to the club. Used to be happy to see my country's flag, now it usually denotes some wingnut who would burn it down just to spite others. I'm Canadian
46"Liberty is when you never have to show basic tolerance towards things you haven't personally approved the existence of"
31Same applies to DeSantis and the word "freedom".
14Pretty sure they think it's just a fancy word for homophobia

Aren't there punishments for false accusations?
107At the officer's discretion...
85Filing charges on these wingnuts is their wettest of wet dreams. They get to play the victim card and call press conferences to scream about how they are maytrs for the cause and fighting the libs. It would validate their existence as they cosplayed every Fascist fantasy.
Cops don't want to deal with this bullshit either. Take a report that will be filed and forgotten forever to placate them. You would really need to be a persistent asshole wasting a lot of their time before they are going to charge you.

"Right Wing activist" Hate group. Call then what they are. A suburban terroristic hate group.
88I prefer “fascists”
19In this case, I think it is appropriate to juxtapose the name with liberty and the action being the opposite.

If there was porn in libraries, then you would see a whole lot more teenage boys hanging out there.
83When I was in elementary school, a lot of boys would occasionally get together and try to find dirty words like "fart" in the dictionary.
19I believe you have just solved the opioid crisis, sir.
4There is porn in libraries. That's why you see homeless and old men there watching it.

Tapley told Popular Information that Vicki Baggett, an English teacher in Escambia County, has been "helping us." Baggett, who Popular Information interviewed earlier this year, has challenged hundreds of books in public school libraries, including many that have LGBTQ characters or address racism. Baggett told Popular Information that she challenged When Wilma Rudolph Played Basketball — the inspirational story of a Black woman who overcame racial prejudice to become an Olympic champion — because it would make white students "feel uncomfortable" as "they are being white-shamed.”
Like what the actual fuck is with these loons, people like her are why the Germans were forced to observe and cleanup camps after WW2. If it makes you uncomfortable maybe try and learn how not to be a racist, imaginary-friend worshiping fuck.
75I read the linked article on Baggett. Seems like a POS

How are these women able to just walk into school libraries in the first place? Is there NO SECURITY in those schools?
71They don't need to walk into the school's library in order to file a false police report.
54
I don't know how to define pornography, but I know it when I see it. There's none of it in any damn school library.
64Well, there is always the Bible if you want to find some porn and violence smut.
36Something about horse dongs and skeet. And not to mention all the incest.

I know it when I see it
I fear that will go over some heads here.
18- 12
When HOA authoritarianism doesn't hit as hard anymore.
55FTA:
"Tapley told Popular Information that any book that has a "sex scene" is pornography and not "appropriate for minors." '
The correct response to that is "I see, I'm sorry you're an idiot, your opinion isn't valid. Shut up and go away."
Why is it the people most likely to yell "pornography!" don't actually seem to have ever seen actual pornography?
47"Tapley told Popular Information that any book that has a “sex scene” is pornography and not “appropriate for minors.” ’
Do... do you think she knows the Bible has sex scenes?

Carlin was right, these fuckin' people are nothing but redundant protoplasm.
45IMO, waste of carbon fits better.
21Fair.

Frauleins for Fascism!
39Klanned Karenhood!

Calling the police over books in libraries is beyond absurd. These people are insane.
25Not only have they infiltrated almost every aspect of the education system in my area, they're holding school administrators hostage. Teachers are afraid of losing their jobs. Everyone is trying to keep their heads down for fear of the Karen brigade lopping it off. Plus, because it's Florida, parents are afraid of their kids saying the wrong thing and getting forcibly removed from their families, including their siblings. These people have a fervor in their eyes that can not be abated. We don't know what to do. Help.
24Leave.
It’s drastic and inconvenient but it’s really the only solution when it comes to fascists who are in power.
You have to leave until it turns full ouroboros and the Karens turn on each other ultimately destroying themselves in their quest for idealogical purity.
10Democrats just booted a mom's for liberty majority off 3 hotly contested school boards in my area yesterday. I understand the sentiment, but elections can work. Moving only reinforces the facism because it concentrates the bad.
16During the Fascist period, many deputies of the opposition retired on this hill after the murder of Giacomo Matteotti, here ending—by the so-called "Aventine Secession"—their presence at the Parliament and, as a consequence, their political activity.
2They won't be happy just ruining one shithole state.

Given that every accusation is a confession, I think law enforcement needs to be reminded of who the real groomers are here and to go check on them instead.
23Karens of Loser Party
23What? Did they still find Bibles on the shelves or what?
23Liberty
You keep using this word, but I do not think that it means what you think it means...
22Like they've ever read a book.
16Illiterate moron parents fighting for their right to make other peoples children illiterate morons. Freedom!
11They haven't even read their own precious Bible.

All I had to read was "Florida"
15Why wasn't she charged with filing a false report?
15Because the cops are fascists too
12
I hope to god they get hit with false police report charges.
15Bill Hicks was clowning on these idiots 30 years ago and nothing has changed, it’s like we’re stuck in a loop made of stupid.
14they got that "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" naming convention going on
12I know when I hear a con talking about "freedom" and "liberty" they are talking about the Southern notion of those terms, not the meaning most people are thinking of.

Trunts.
11This reminds me of the story of Ronald McNair in the segregated library: https://youtu.be/0lLf6qakrTw?feature=shared
10That's a great video, thanks for sharing!

I guess these bumbling idiots think biology books are porn too
9Need to reboot Rob Zombie's Dragula as a grind house flick about a Dragged out Drag Racing bitch mowing down all these Sparkle Motion bitches on the way to church one morning. Maybe run through the chapel and make skid marks out of the pastor.
Wouldn't help or anything, but I'd probably go see it, in the theater even. Release it Easter Sunday. idk.Nothing's gonna stop this kinda shit until we outlaw religion or fucking seriously reign it in. That shit's never gonna happen the way things are going, so might as well twist their panties with some real nasty speculative fiction.
8Want to get rid of religion? Educate kids with critical thinking and get them excited about science -- the whole process. Teach them to find their own answers scientifically. Religious zealotry can't survive in minds so cultivated.
11I can't think of anything more degrading, demoralizing and dejecting than working in modern education. I appreciate where you're coming from and used to agree with you whole heartedly.
I mean, you realize you're commenting on a story about mothers calling the police on a school librarian and accusing them of distributing pornography to children, right? The very kind of person who would be educating those same children in the ways you suggest, attacked baselessly, life quite possibly ruined depending on how it's handled.7
never gonna stop me, never gonna stop.
Nice zombie reference

Here's their coming outfits
8These guys are for "liberty" like the Ministry of Truth is a bastion of truth.
5They don't get phone calls at GITMO, which is where these evil pieces of shit belong. Let put them there for everyone's well being.
