Bring on the adjectives!

"California students rank in the bottom 10% nationally in reading and math, (based on 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress Test scores), but Governor Jerry Brown just signed a bill into law to ensure they know more about gay historical figures than kids from any other state. The Assembly passed the measure on a 49-25 party line vote after it passed the Senate, 23-14; Democrats control both chambers." Written by openly gay Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco)

The Fair Act aka Bill Number: SB 48.  Nothing makes me happier than to quote and openly homosexual democrat when he agrees with me.  Here we go again.  Let me start off by saying I don't give two cares about what you do in your bedroom.  Not my concern at all.  I have no inclination to tell you what I do in mine.  So why glorifying homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexual-ism and transgender-ism (which I will address later on) a bill?  Why do I have to know what kind of sex you have (or have had) in order for your accomplishment to be relevant?  

The idea behind the bill is to promote tolerance in elementary and middle schools.  There is nothing wrong with teaching our children that we have to be tolerant of other peoples decision, even if it is not what we would choose for ourselves.  But this  bill is indoctrination of ideas that these children most likely will know nothing about; sexual preference. This takes history and turns it into sex ed.  Once again, I keep coming back to one question... "Who cares?"  What is the relevance?  

So when is enough, enough? Never have I ever thought, "hmmm, I really wish in this book they would have mentioned that this guy was a heterosexual..." I mean come on!  It's ludicrous to even think such a thing... Unless of course you are somehow a minority group.  Then you are "entitled" to all kinds of opinions that no one else is entitled to.  My thought is this.  If someone has done something great for the GLBT groups and happens to be homosexual, great mention it because it would be relevant at that time.  But to say, "Mr. X, the gay, white, short, thin, blue eyed, brown haired, atheist, father of 2, country bred,  etc etc etc...", is so bloody uncalled for!  Honestly why does any of that matter!?  And where is the line?  Who is important enough to get their "group" an adjective or at the very least made to be a worthy point of mention?

As the Senator said, where is our focus?  This is like feeding one hungry chicken out of 50 total chickens while the hen house is burning to the ground.  The priorities are not straight here.  Sometimes it is ok to take an unpopular stand.  Right now the world is so afraid of coming across politically incorrect that we will look the other way when there are things which are more pertinent and demanding of our attention, just so we can address a minor minority issue.

Education is so vital, and yet, becoming worse and worse by the day, here in America. I am going to address this more in depth in a future blog.  But for now, can we all just take a step back and reassess?   Think about what is important when it comes to education.  What you want your kids to learn.  Are Mathematics, Reading and literature, English, Science, Physical Education and basic History not important? Lets get the basics down before we get carried away in the details.  If we were to find out James Madison was a gay man, would that somehow change the Constitution?  Not for me it wouldn't. Ask yourself that about anyone you have ever learned about in history.  Ask yourself if knowing their sexual identity will really change what they are known for...

Get ready... The last thing I want to address is this. I have not now, nor can I ever accept transgendered people.  I under no circumstances cannot support legislation that preaches it is OK to try to change your natural GOD GIVEN gender.  It is IMPOSSIBLE!! It cannot be done.  You can mutilate your genitalia and take hormones all day every day.  You can modify the way you walk and talk, but you cannot change the chromosomes that you were born with.  I am as small minded about this as you can get, because it doesn't make sense.  God can't make that kind of mistake, and you are not smarter than God.  Period.  I find anyone that is considering a sex-change operation mentally ill.  My children, if I were to ever have any, would never be allowed to learn that kind of trash in a school that they are attending.  I would review the curricula extensively to ensure that kind of indoctrination wouldn't be preached to my family.  I know some of you want to scream at me right now that it is their choice and they have the "right" to do what they feel is necessary for them.  Believe me, there is nothing you can say on this that I haven't already heard.  Some justification for this absurd and appalling notion.  Feel free to leave a comment if you would like, but I will fiercely and adamantly defend my position on this. If I ever become an elected official in CA ( or any state for that matter) I will make it my personal goal to remove any such teaching in public schools AFTER ensuring that the basics that I mentioned earlier are address and resolved in a satisfactory way.  This I can guarantee!
