Alabama State Representative Gerald Allen is on record as wanting to ban gay marriage, but now he's turned his attention to the state's libraries--both public and school. Allen wants to pass a law to ban books with gay characters. He also wants textbooks that suggest homosexuality is okay out of state schools.

...for we musn't let others read 'gay' books and become 'abnormal'

Again, banning homosexual characters in books will do us no good as it will discontinue a huge chunk of records that are a part of our culture and history.

I really wanted to address the fact that quite a few of you have said something along the lines of "grow up", "you're immature", "stupid", " and there is a "freedom of expression"... etc without taking into consideration of what you're saying at all. It's like you guys are just throwing words out there in anger.

Yes, I understand that those of you who support homosexual rights are upset over this, but keep in mind that what you guys are supporting, freedom of lifestyle or just freedom in general, gives the same right to those who choose to be against homosexuals. As there are two sides of this controversy, there are two sides of freedom: the freedom to support, and the freedom to not support.

In this debate, the best way to go about things, in my humble opinion, is that you all use logic and facts to present your views. Condescension will give leeway to more spite that will add on to what is already a situation full of anger, and even hate, from both sides.
