The article is silent on the topic of religion, yet it is Abrahamic religions (including Christianity) which are historically hostile towards LGBT. I remember a news item I read years ago, the link is long lost, but it was about a Christian who considered it their religious duty to hate and they felt the U.S.'s First Amendment granted them the right to hate. That's quite the misinterpretation of "love your neighbor as yourself".

Rinderle bought My Shadow Is Purple – a picture book “featuring a student who does not conform to gender stereotypes” – at a Scholastic book fair, according to plaintiffs’ response to the motion to dismiss. Scholastic recommends the book for five-to-eight-year-olds. The teacher of more than a decade chose the title “because of its anti-bullying message”, according to the amended complaint, reported on by the Guardian in July. Her class voted on books for a morning “read-aloud” session and nine of 15 students chose the 32-page book.
Two days after the reading session, one parent and then another emailed complaints to the school’s principal. The second called “anything in the genre of ‘LGBTQ’ and ‘queer’ … divisive”. The principal forwarded the emails to the school district’s central office. Within five days, on 13 March of last year, the county suspended Rinderle. By August, the school district fired the teacher of more than 10 years.
this is why the US will never be progressive or have any modern policies and laws
we bully any dissidents into irrelevance and submission going as far as throwing the victim into poverty
Either vote Democrat or Republican because you are not allowed in the US to speak out against the two ruling parties or there are consequences
voting just Democrat and promoting that party's agenda alone will not produce the results the citizens need
either we revolt against the two-party sham, or we stay trapped in the mire
That was definitely one of the better buried/more roundabout “both sides“ comments I’ve seen in quite some time. You almost had me.
Yep. Well-known around these parts for playing the "both sides" game. Working really hard to get Donald Trump elected.
