San Francisco Dem wants to teach CA schoolchildren about gay historical figures

The California Legislature could soon pass a bill that would require school textbooks and teachers to incorporate information on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Americans into their curriculum.
The Fair, Accurate, Inclusive and Respectful Education Act, or SB48, which mimics a bill previously vetoed by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, made it one step closer to becoming law Tuesday after being approved by the state’s Senate Judiciary Committee.
The bill, introduced by state Sen. Mark Leno, could have a nationwide impact if passed because California is such a big buyer of textbooks that publishers often incorporate the state’s standards into books distributed to other states.
Supporters say that’s a good thing because it will help prevent gay students from being harassed or bullied by their classmates.
But critics say SB48 is just an attempt to brainwash students into becoming pro-gay political activists and ensure that government, not parents, has the final word on teaching kids about moral values.

This is not age-appropriate material. The first thing the child will want to know is the definition of gay. And to say that gay equals guys who like guys or gals who like gals is a lie. The little kids have friends of all genders and that does not mean they are gay, but that is the impression they will get if that is all they are told. This topic practically forces a discussion of vaginal versus anal sex. And believe me, I will be LIVID if the school system forces that discussion on my family before my kids are mature enough.

Is this the next step in the gay-marriage battle? Brainwash the children?

Punish bullies. Nobody should be bullied in school. Leave sexual practices out of it.
