The California Senate held a hearing last week on AB 1078, a bill to curb the control local school districts have over their own curriculum and allow the State to fine school districts if their curriculum isn’t “inclusive and diverse” enough. The legislation was in response to California parents protesting pornographic books found in K-12 libraries as well as school board members from Temecula who oppose Critical Race Theory (CRT) and refused to approve an elementary school social studies curriculum because it included an LGBT historical figure known for having sex with a teenager.
The controversy came to a head two months ago when, Temecula Valley Unified School District Board rejected a new social studies curriculum that included, among other things, material on gay activist Harvey Milk. School Board President Joseph Komrosky opposed the curriculum, calling Milk a “pedophile.” Board Member Danny Gonzalez added that the “inclusion of sexually based topics and the glorification of a known pedophile” would be “morally reprehensible and inappropriate.”
Governor Gavin Newsom and State Attorney General Rob Bonta publicly criticized Komrosky and issued a press release threatening “repercussions” and expressed “deep concern about the potential discriminatory intent.”
At a June news conference, Komrosky said his statements about Milk “were not based upon him being a homosexual, but rather based upon him being an adult having a sexual relationship with a minor.” This darker side of Milk is detailed in a popular biography, The Mayor of Castro Street, by Randy Shilts, a gay identified reporter who worked for the San Francisco Chronicle. He wrote a hold chapter on Milk’s sexual relationship with a 16 year old, while Milk was 33. (Read here)
In the wake of Newsom’s feud with Temecula school board officials, Assemblyman Corey Jackson authored AB 1078 to curtail the authority of school boards pick their own curriculum. The bill would raise the threshold for removing educational content to a ⅔ vote by the school board and enable the state to levy fines if the school district doesn’t have enough curriculum to “ensure the accurate portrayal of the cultural and racial diversity of our society.”
During the hearing for AB 1078 this past Wednesday, Republican Senator Ochoa-Bogh echoed Gonzalez’s concerns regarding Harvey Milk. After admitting she had voted repeatedly for the annual “Harvey Milk Day Resolution,” Ochoa-Bogh said she was ignorant of Milk’s relationship with a teenager. “It was surprising to me to know that, in his biography, he mentioned a relationship with a minor.” Jackson didn’t respond to Ochoa-Bogh’s comments on Milk….
Normalizing pedophilia and legalizing it is the whole objective of the LGBTQP movement.
No it is not. Please stop spreading lies.
At the recent Pride parade in NYC, they chanted “we’re coming for your children”. I believe them, why you don’t is unfathomable.
Yep, but YFC will either not respond or give some pathetic, Kamala Harris like word salad excuse… Check out the video how the gay shame parade was handled in George (country not state) it was with swift brutality. God Bless Georgia
Video today out of Helsinki of President Biden nibbling on a frightened toddler’s shoulder. The whole lib woke cabal is protecting the network of pedophiles in Hollywood, finance, government, and tech. We have a pedophile in the White House, and probably at the top of every major social institution in the world.
Normalizing perverts is the goal of evil people who call you a hater for opposing them.
Harvey Milk admitted to pedophilia. Yet, that’s almost always scrubbed from histories about him. He can say it was consensual, just like a pervert priest could say that. But, it’s still abuse. Should a terminal in an international airport be named after Mr. McCarrick?
Well, there is an airport named after Bill & Hillary so anything’s possible. Those who normalize these abominations have no shame, as honest people know.
It was legal.
If I spent $250k to go see the Titanic but didn’t get there I’d be crushed.
If you call someone a pedophile who has not had sex or sexual interest in someone 12 or under, you are bearing false witness.
If you can’t tell the truth about worldly matters, why would anybody believe you about supernatural things?
We don’t need to cancel Harvey Milk or anybody.
We can be mature and deal with reality.
Sure, like the reality that perversion casts into Hell. Or did you mean to suggest another?
I am detecting some animus.
Harvey Milk was bad milk! Children belong to parents not school boards. Let parents decide what’s best for their children!
