    Ah, Florida! Florida Lawmaker Warns Common Core Will Turn Children 'Homosexual'

    Florida Lawmaker Warns Common Core Will Turn Children 'Homosexual'

    By Alina Kleineidam16 hours ago

    Over the past few months, the new U.S. education standard known as the "Common Core" has attracted its fair share of negative attention by opponents.

    But Florida Republican State Rep. Charles Van Zant took the Common Core critique to a new level by claiming that the educational initiative promoted by the Obama administration will turn your children "homosexual."

    "Since the historic ruling, the Lovings have become icons for equality. Mildred released a statement on the 40th anniversary of the ruling in 2007: 'I am proud that Richard’s and my name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love, the commitment, the fairness, and the family that so many people, Black or white, young or old, gay or straight, seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all. That’s what Loving, and loving, are all about.'." - Mildred Loving (Loving v. Virginia)

    Well, since we don't really know what makes people homosexual versus heterosexual, this is as good a theory as some of the other ones out there.

    I wonder if for the really really macho masculine guys it could simply change them enough to be able to be able to recognize the color mauve.

      My first thought was, "What??? Common Core teaches good fashion sense?"

        I'm sorry, but I'm a mauve denier, and I will be until the day I die.
        It's been ten years since that lonely day I left you
        In the morning rain, smoking gun in hand
        Ten lonely years but how my heart, it still remembers
        Pray for me, momma, I'm a gypsy now

          I was forced to acknowledge Teal as an official color when my daughter go married.

          But the Republicans are racist.

            I don't believe in magenta.

            Seriously, find magenta in the rainbow. It's not there.

              I believe in Magenta. And Riff-Raff. And Columbia. I just don't believe in Brad and Janet. And the sequel sucks.

                You actually made a cultural reference combined with a pun. A joke. A jape. You engaged in whimsy.

                That was cool.

                  Dude, my user name is a cultural reference and a bit of whimsy. It's just that our cultures rarely intersect. Apparently classic camp is one of those rare places, the intersection of Bok World and Planet Celeste.
