IMO The hands of "Adults" showing affection above "Sexuality" have no place in a 1st grade classroom, it's that simpleSo is this the posted that "traumatised" a child?
A Child Was Traumatized by Poster of People of Different Races Holding Hands?!
Yes, you read that headline correctly. A child was traumatized, not by a violent picture or a scary movie poster, but by a poster of people of two different races holding hands.news.yahoo.com

oh my (rolling my eyes)
This video would probably cause a psychic break in the child (or the parents)
What does that mean?...."Adults" showing affection above "Sexuality"....
I do believe there are carefully crafted stories being created out there that are being weaponized toward their desired audienced in order to force a response often under the guise of being virtuous.What if you called a school board trustee to complain about how your child reacted to something or other and the school trustee used that as ammunition in a public school board meeting to limit teachers' freedom to decorate their classrooms? Once this became grist for public officials using government power to try to ban speech, that's newsworthy. Certainly for the community in which this could happen, and in the broader national conversation about things being banned in classrooms.
Because of years of hand wringing moral panic being foisted upon our school system by conservative agitators.
The administrator was being called out and couldn't give even a single good example for why the standards had to be changed.
It would be merely annoying if there weren't so many real and pressing issues to actually be discussed on a national stage and we're constantly bogged down in utter nonsense.
Did anyone post the actual picture in question?
What?They have pictures of gays having sex in childrens library and thats fine (no noted triggers) but a picture of diversely colored children holding hands is a threat (so no picture for you) could be dangerous.
The trustee in the OP for one.Who are these conservative agitators?
Short answer, no.Did anyone post the actual picture in question?
That's not the poster under discussion. That's merely a Getty stock shot the editor pulled for interest.IMO The hands of "Adults" showing affection above "Sexuality" have no place in a 1st grade classroom, it's that simple
Art (including photography, drawing, and painting) has always been considered speech.I do believe there are carefully crafted stories being created out there that are being weaponized toward their desired audienced in order to force a response often under the guise of being virtuous.
How is a decoration considered a part of speech though? Unless its a picture of words maybe?
Well, actually it's the same people protesting both.They have pictures of gays having sex in childrens library and thats fine (no noted triggers) but a picture of diversely colored children holding hands is a threat (so no picture for you) could be dangerous.

The Supreme Court recently ruled on artistic expression in creating web site designs in a Colorado case, this is speech and has been defined as suchI honestly never knew that that was what is considred speech. I thought speech was actaully speech.
The Supreme Court ruled decades ago that artistic expression of all forms was considered speech under the First Amendment, and as such could not be suppressed or coerced by the government. This Court ruled that website design was artistic expression.The Supreme Court recently ruled on artistic expression in creating web site designs in a Colorado case, this is speech and has been defined as such
Example: Same would apply to a Christian restraunt, that refuses to rent their banquet facilities to a "same sex marriage reception"The Supreme Court ruled decades ago that artistic expression of all forms was considered speech under the First Amendment, and as such could not be suppressed or coerced by the government.

Note: "Artistic expression" would not include catalog and off-the-shelf items.
Wait a moment, what is “a Christian restaurant”?Example 1: Same would apply to a Christian restraunt, that refuses to rent their banquet facilities to a "same sex marriage reception"
You can't force a Christian to perform services against their beliefs, their services and facilities are their expression in religious free speech
