To these state and DC politicians who want to ban books and bully kids, leave us and our children alone.
@RepGregLandsman Well done Congressman Landsman. 👏
@RepGregLandsman Hey, @GOP -- parent your kids. Don't want them to read certain books from the library? Check what they're reading. Don't tell the rest of us what OUR kids can do because you can't handle the responsibility of parenting YOURS.
@RepGregLandsman Republicans say they protect children. Instead they take away the power of the parent and give it to the government. The government wants to raise your children.
@RepGregLandsman I think they’re the kids of their parents and not yours. Parents are the customers of what they want for their kids. Books are always available on the general market, that is unless the Democrats have banned them.
@RepGregLandsman @HouseDemocrats No books should be banned in the land of the free.
@RepGregLandsman @tedlieu God, protect me from your followers
@RepGregLandsman @tedlieu Screamed exact same thing other night! . @GOP needs to LEAVE PEOPLE ALONE & Get Out Of MY: -Uterus -Bed -Kids Lives -House -School -Bookshelf -Dr. Office -Bank Account -Retirement -Thought process & definitely don’t want on my vacation!
@RepGregLandsman @rhonda_harbison It’s like cable Tv - so many choices yet you can CHANGE THE CHANNEL OR NOT PURCHASE THE SHOW… Books are the same - just because you don’t like them don’t buy them or read them! School requires certain books to enrich our children’s minds and create creative thinkers.
@RepGregLandsman @tedlieu When books were banned/burned in Nazi Germany, sending books to soldiers overseas was seen as patriotic act. Slogan of the Council on Books in Wartime “Books are weapons in the war of ideas”&=their belief that books were important for spreading the ideals of freedom and democracy
