Mysterious woman tells school board that Scholastic book sparked porn addiction
On November 14, a 20-year-old woman named Lanah Burkhardt appeared before the school board of the Conroe Independent School District in Texas. Burkhardt told the board that, when she was 11, she read a Scholastic book that introduced her to "a single kiss." According to Burkhardt, her exposure to th...
You're viewing a single thread.
“ Burkhardt's appearance was promoted by SkyTree Book Fairs, a newly formed organization marketing itself as "an alternative to the sexually explicit content distributed in Scholastic's book fairs."”
Hmmm, so this was a marketing ploy?

This woman, however, is not DPAL and wants to ban books, because she likes the completely unrelated thing: porn. If that's all it takes, I like pizza, so we should ban the Bible.
Sadly, they did:
Burkhardt's gambit has already had an impact. The Conroe school board, after listening to her story, voted to restrict access to Drama, the Scholastic book featuring a kiss, from all students in the 8th grade and below. One of the school board members, Melissa Dungan, suggested replacing Scholastic with SkyTree Book Fairs. "All glory to God," Burkhardt posted in response to the news.

Fuckin gross.
And there it is, ayup. These people are doing quite the full court press to drag us back into the 50s.
(1950s? Or 1850s. You decide)
Scholastic should sue the living shit out of all of them.
