Remind me how many kids were killed by books today?
@davidhogg111 I bet more kids were exposed to pornographic material in schools and libraries today than were shot, doesn’t make getting shot ok however, damage comes in all forms so neither can be discounted.
@davidhogg111 If you are referring to books with explicit sexual content, used by teachers initiating inappropriate relationships with students… I would absolutely include any future suicides in that count.
@davidhogg111 I've been an avid reader since the age of 4. Mom didn't censor my choices. Other than an occasional papercut, I have NEVER been harmed by one of the thousands I have read. Not as a child, not as an adult. Republican censorship makes me sick. That's FAR more harmful than books.
@davidhogg111 Or by drag shows? Or by talking about their period? Or by choosing their own pronouns? Or by learning accurate history? Or by receiving gender affirming care? Or by reading about a penguin with 2 dads? Or by having a parent that is allowed to vote without proving identity 6 ways.
@davidhogg111 Can I include the Koran? Quran. Let’s begin!! Academic estimates around 90 000 000-1.2 billion people
@davidhogg111 Remind me where you were when your school was involved in a shooting?
