Good job❤
HYSTERICAL HOW THE PARTY OF CANCEL CULTURE IS ALL OF A SUDDEN WORRIED ABOUT CENSORSHIP. HOW IRONIC. ROSANNE? Chris Harrison! Aunt JEMIMA, Gone With the Wind? Eskimo Pies? Comedians? Politicians, actors, say something thee clowns don’t even from like decades ago and you are cut off, society bans you, you are canceled!! Two faced low life hypocrites. Get that smug look off your f face!!
First guns then our books just like the nazis
Pornography? Read a KJV BIBLE some time, murder, pedophylia, mass murder, poisoning, slavery, forced breeding of underage girls, try that circumcision chapter out at story time on kids. Tell 'em why those people were so interested in penis flesh.
gee Ms. Davis, are you a Republican……?
A real American leader. God bless you Gov. Pritzker!
This bill actually saves the banning of the Bible. Maybe that was/is the real goal of the GOP?
Will the GOP try to ban televisions and phones next?
Every parent has the right to decide what their children should read and shouldn't be allowed to read. That also means that no one should have the right to deny my child access to books in public schools and libraries because of another's personal feelings towards the material. 👍🏽💯
Thank you Governor for your smart answer to the question of Biden
The first amendment did it first.
I expect to see copies of the Bible, Quran, Torah, and every other religious text proudly displayed in every public school library from this point on. Put them right next to Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams.
A victory for true free speech and first amendment. Book bans are unconstitutional and against the first amendment.
He’s just doing this out of pure spite…. He doesn’t care about ANYONE except whoever cooks his diner
Like he said the libraries are experts. Let them decide if porn and gay sex should be available to kids. A lot of kids might want to be groomed. Remember this fat POS is a part of a government that is hemorrhaging people. His judgement is pretty good too since he believes an 80 year old dementia ridden con man is doing a good job. He said Biden is actually bringing people together. Nice. Wtf?
So glad I left Illinois
He says he stands for freedom. 🤔 Last I checked, access to sex books wasnt isn’t the constitution. The right to bear arms is
It’s interesting. The people who want these books in schools aren’t even parents. Wierdo groomers.
Lol no one is trying to remove books about black history. The gay agenda always always finds a way to hide behind Black people 😂 it’s pathetic
Truly trashy reading: the Bible. Don’t ban that either. Just let numbskulls read it and, more often than not, emote towards a greater loss of self-awareness.
How many guys, guys only, back then live to be 800 and 900 years old? Magic mushrooms? Put it in the children’s section under fiction. Sci-if might be a second option.
Simple. Straightforward. Good for him. Constitutional, too.
👍
I have a serious question. If there is NO censorship in schools for children what happens if a neo Nazi group wanted to place materials geared to young children in CPS Libraries? Or hate groups wanted in? Cults?? Or let’s say, hard pornographers decided they have a right to start their audience young? Laugh if want, but what’s to stop them? Who decides what’s crossing the line? Pissker? Isn’t NO CENSORSHIP MEAN ACROSS THE BOARD, NO HOLDS BARRED?? Or is this law only to placate the current narrative?
All they're doing is making people go in and wreck books. It's not like they have cameras up. He thinks he's outsmarted them. He really is that brainwashed. A lunatic.
Why do fat inbred teachers want kids reading porn in school?
Matthew 18:6:
“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea". ❤️🙏
“I WANT THE EVIL GOVERNMENT OUT OF MY LIFE!!!!!”
Also…
“WHY ISNT THE SAME EVIL GOVERNMENT PROTECTING MY KIDS FROM BOOKS?!?!?”
Distractions
Fake news selling propaganda for democrats everyone in America knows this. Let's talk about democrats weoponizing the doj to attack their political opponents every day. They are traitors to this country.
This is just another devil liberal going against what's good for America. This is what liberals do.. scratch a liberal find a fascist every time
Fat fuk think he is doing something good . WHY DO DEMOCRATS ACT LIKE THIS. WHY DO THEY SIT ON THE WRONG SIDE OF EVERYTHING ON WHAT'S GOOD FOR THIS COUNTRY… THEY'RE FUCKING SICK IN THE HEAD
So does this mean Liberals do not get to cancel the books they dislike?
@ 4:00 did this guy really just say he wants to ban firearms and then accuse republicans of using Orwellian doublespeak to violate our freedom in the same sentence?
think about that for a second.
Also, if he's cool with books about sodomy and homosexuality in our schools then he should be OK with Mein Kampf, the Turner Diaries, Siege, and Culture of Critique
Something wrong with this dude
That's good to hear , but the book "The Hate that you give" Is disgusting. It actually flames the hatred of diversity. I tried to watch the movie but my stomach turned.
I think people should be aware of the books the children are reading but the library itself needs to continue its freedom to display what they feel is right
Liberals block conservative or religious books from being in school libraries as a matter of course. All this hubbub over sexually-explicit teen books being excluded is a little corny………..don't expect to find a book describing why homoism is wrong in a public school.
Illinois public libraries still ban certain books so are all illinois public libraries going to be defunded?
Thank you Governor ☺ 🌈 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Here’s some examples of books that have been banned in elementary schools. See what you think.
This Book is Gay, written by transgender author Juno Dawson, is marketed as a “bestselling exploration of sexuality and gender for young adults.” Dawson writes in one chapter that “perhaps the most important skill you will master as a gay or bi man is the timeless classic, the handjob.” She continues, “Something they don’t teach you in school, is that in order to be able to cum at all, you or your partner may need to finish off with a handy.” The book also offers graphic descriptions of oral and anal sex, among other adult topics. “Being on bottom makes a dude no less manly than his top partner,” Dawson writes of anal sex. “He is literally taking it like a man.”
Needs to lower the price of food gas electricity the summer school program is great.
I hope yall realize his "sister" is trans
This idiot needs to be charged don't start to piss the ppl off wit thr kid we have a right to pull are kids tk the money from u a do wat we need to do for the sake of are children and the future if u were in a different country thy would literally hang u in the street for doing this to children maybe we should bring laws such like tht back cuz these ppl are a disgrace of humans
So reporter are now Trump GOP surrogates and they asks the right talking points in their absence. This is not non partial news.
