Georgia On My Mind

Thanks for noticing that story, Ibram.

There were actually two small victories for rationality here in Georgia this past week. First, that crazy lady who wanted Harry Potter books removed from her kids' public school library was shot down by the State Board of Education. She could appeal to the Gwinnett Superior Court. I say "Please crazy lady, go away. You've embar
rassed us enough."


She actually looks kinda normal, in a Atlanta McMansion housewife kinda way.

Victory number two was the one you noted when those crazy school officials settled a lawsuit about those evolution warning stickers. Many parents in Cobb were "offended" by the material on evolution in the textbooks, and were pissed off at the terrorists:

"It's terrorist organizations like the ACLU
that are hijacking our country's educational
system by imposing their own secular agenda
on the rest of us."



In the end, there will be no stickers; but there will always be fucktard parents. I'm sure many Cobb taxpayers are a bit pissed, however. Not only did the case cost a bunch, removing the stickers took a lot of time and cost a bunch too.

Merry Christmas
