Happy Dads

Check out this article from the Times about Evesham, NJ.

Long story short, an educational video called "That's a Family!" has just been banned because one of the families discussed is of the two-dads (a.k.a. "gay dads," "happy dads," "multi-dads") type, which upsets roughly 49% of the town. Apparently, if you show kids that gay people are normal and can raise families, you run the risk of convincing those kids to disown their parents. I don't get it.

Here's what one proud hetero child-builder had to say:

“I don’t think it was appropriate,” said Jennifer Monteleone, 35, who is a parent of two children at the Robert B. Jaggard Elementary School. “If it was maybe in fifth grade, but in third grade they’re a little too young.”

Riiight. By that reasoning, I know plenty of thirty-year-olds who are too young. Newsflash Jenny: Little bigots grow up and become big bigots.

These goings on in New Jersey almost disturb me as much as the disappearance of the bees and gorillas does. WTF, ebola gorillas? That's like some Bioshock Steve King South Park totally evil heavy shit.
