'Homophobic Crap': Woman Goes Off During Board Of Trustees Meeting
TESTIFY!
By Conover Kennard — October 28, 2022
A woman went off on the Maury County Board of Trustees in Tennessee after an innocuous pride display in a library somehow prompted pearl-clutching, causing the banning of books to ensue. Conservatives don't have policies to offer, so they launch culture wars against teachers, librarians, and people who are just trying to do their jobs.
Conservatives today remind me of the Moral Majority, which was founded in 1979 by Jerry Falwell Sr. and dissolved in the 80s. If you're an oldster like me, you might remember them.
Maury County Commissioner Aaron Miller – who runs the local organization Foundation for Liberty and Freedom – was at the center of the shit show, calling on Library Director Zachary Fox to resign. And Fox did resign.

Hey Miller if you can think outside of your right wing box just a tad. I got a question(s) for you, since you like to inject yourself and your dogma into other people private affairs basically.....does the fucking Cumberland River and the Columbia river run through Tennessee and they connect to the Ohio, then connect to the Mississippi?....DO you think those books with that information should be removed from schools....because LGQT people might go and do some fishing and swimming in the rivers......that's how fascists think and your a Commissioner of what? .......
Do you think there were men in the Battle of Franklin, that might have been gay in the Confederate treasonous army or the union army for that matter, and you do realize that one Major General Patrick Cleburne (Irish immigrant killed at the Battle of Franklin) went before the Jefferson Davis bunch and proposed that black men should fight for the south, because there were not enough whites to field soldiers, but that idea was rejected...but around 10,000 men died in that Battle.....do you think that should be rejected learning....well....
And I applaud Jesse Graham.....
