There's new news from the Theocratic Nation of Texas today: An eighth grade teacher has been fired for assigning an "unapproved" graphic novel to the students in her class. The book that got her canned? “Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation.” Chron writes:
While that sounds very scandalous, and the school district's apology to parents seems to have been written with the same severity they might use to announce that another five kids have been shot dead in a classroom and the state will be making counselors available to survivors so that everyone can process how perfectly normal this is, you should know that what Anne Frank wrote about sexuality was ... astonishingly mild stuff.
She was a teenager in the 1940s, for God's sake. Even her idea of "dirty jokes" were things that Winston Churchill might say out loud on any given day of the week.
Fortunately for all of us, we can see the actual content of the book that got a teacher fired for exposing her students to it and, holy eff, everyone having a cow about “Anne Frank's Diary” is out of their damn minds.
Anne Frank? A little girl that hid in an attic, trying escape the Nazi's, Anne Frank?
These mental midgets in Texas, make much better Muslims, than they do Christians.
