Groomer library in Iowa shut down after locals protested its nonsense (archive.ph)

McMahon, who has been a library director since 1995, told the Gazette some patrons informally complained about the library displaying books written by First Lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

Rather than go through the official procedure to have the books reviewed and possibly removed, McMahon said people would just check those books out and never return them, which is theft of materials and forced the library to go through a process to get them back.

I love that the explanation for this is not that some guy who likes Kamala Harris checked out the book and never returned it, but that it was the eeeeevil right-wing boogeyman trying to get the book removed. Does she have any evidence for that? Forget it, Jake, it's journalism.

If anyone said that the library should not have books by politicians they don't like, those people don't understand the purpose of a library.

Renee Greenlee, formerly of the Marion Public Library, was hired as the new Vinton Public Library director in November 2021.

Greenlee came to Vinton highly regarded because of her involvement in the Marion community.

During her time at the Marion Public Library, Greenlee “helped facilitate Marion’s first Pride event, which featured a Pride parade around the library, a drag queen story time, a panel with local LGBTQIA+ agencies and more,” according to I Love Libraries

In other words, she is a groomer.

According to the Vinton Eagle, rural Vinton resident Brooke Kruckernberg read a prepared statement during the March 9 Vinton Library Board meeting that accused the facility of having a “liberal agenda” because of book choices and due to the hiring of Greenlee and her staff, some of whom are LGBTQ.

Note the sleight of hand. Even though Greenlee was pushing a groomer agenda, this is simply ignored by the urinalist and instead the claim becomes that they were targeted for 'being' LGBTP.

“I don’t believe the library is representing our town well with hiring a majority of staff who are openly a part of the LGBTQ community.”

I thought the groomer shitlibs thought groups should be proportionally represented. Apparently not.

According to Greenlee, the Vinton Public Library had nearly 5,800 materials in the children’s section. Of those, three books had a subject heading of “LGBT,” two had a heading of “gay,” two mentioned transgender

In other words, they have purchased books promoting homosexuality and transgenderism for CHILDREN.

I'm just glad fewer and fewer people give a shit about being called homophobes or transphobes or whatever the fuck -phobe and -ist these days, to the point where they're starting to cancel these degenerates on a local level, where the opposite would have been true just half a decade ago. Hope this goes national sometime soon this decade.

During the April meeting, Greenlee defended her staff members and reiterated that the library serves all patrons. She also explained why a tit-for-tat display of Christian and LGBTQ books would create additional inequalities. “If the library were to do as Ms. Kruckenberg asked regarding the 1:1 display of books about transgender people to God-approved cisgender people, this would result in biased displays,” Greenlee said. “To be equitable, we would also need to display books with multiple religious and non-religious views of gender, including Christian denominations and other religions that are inclusive of transgender people.” It was more of the same during the May Library Board meeting and Greenlee resigned later that month. When the Cedar Rapids Gazette asked Greenlee why she declined to comment.

Get fucked you deconstructionist piece of shit, Christ is King and I'm glad you've been hounded out of a job you've clearly been using to corrupt children & attack traditional pillars from religion to the two sexes.

What are these other religions that are pro-trans?

That is the government, but the general population most certainly does not accept this sort of thing.

I guess like most other places where troonery is pushed.

America is a Christian nation, we don't need any other religions to be represented.

These freaks would probably demand that their skinsuit forms of Christianity be represented along with the real thing.

Come the next Great Awakening, American Christianity could really use its own Council of Nicaea to determine which churches are legitimate partners within an ecumenical but thoroughly actually Christian framework, and which are heresies to be designated enemies of true Christians & suppressed wherever they are found.

If the proto-Catholics and proto-Orthodox of Nicene & Chalcedonian times (for indeed there were already some pretty significant differences between the Western & Eastern Christians even back in the 300s) can work together to extirpate the Arians, Gnostics, Donatists, etc. I see no reason why even Trad-Caths, evangelical Southern Baptists and Pentecostal dominionists can't do the same against Episcopalian trannies, woke Methodists and those Lutherans who've been dumping Somalis into Minnesota for 30 years in our day and age.

Unless you are frequently attacked as a transphobe, you should ask yourself if there is something wrong with you.

Oh come on. What's the chance of someone liking Kamala Harris?

Willie Brown probably liked her for the 30 seconds it took him to nut.

Hate to say it, but this was always the intent. Foucault is jerking off in hell to what his pedophilia created.

The Cedar Rapids Gazette is a wannabe NYT. They are significantly further to the left than the community they "serve"
