If Texas is good for anything that attacks moral content of society like freedom of speech, multi-culturalism, gun control and the climate. Other than that I don't find much virtue in what goes on in Texas. It is biased against most anything American.
There is a children's section in any public library and why adult content would be found there is because of librarians that don't know the Dewey Decimal System.
It is outrageous to even make an issue of this. When it comes to transgender anyone there is no arguing with it. It is a physical PROOF that is genetically based. There is no INFLUENCING anyone to be transgender. It is a matter of genetics and the extremist idiots in Texas need to get over themselves.
They don't even care to understand where the responsiblity at the southern border ends with States Rights and Federal responsibility. This idea of limiting content in public libraries and schools is outrageous. I think School Boards have been doing a great job at the local level and there is no other way to address school children and their needs. One has to wonder what fuels the sports bonfires in Texas.

Llano, Tex. - In early November, (click here) an email dropped into the inbox of Judge Ron Cunningham, the silver-haired head chair of the governing body of Llano County in Texas’s picturesque Hill Country. The subject line read “Pornographic Filth at the Llano Public Libraries.”
“It came to my attention a few weeks ago that pornographic filth has been discovered at the Llano library,” wrote Bonnie Wallace, a 54-year-old local church volunteer. “I’m not advocating for any book to be censored but to be RELOCATED to the ADULT section. … It is the only way I can think of to prohibit censorship of books I do agree with, mainly the Bible, if more radicals come to town and want to use the fact that we censored these books against us.”
Wallace had attached an Excel spreadsheet of about 60 books she found objectionable, including those about transgender teens, sex education and race, including such notable works as “Between the World and Me,” by author and journalist Ta-Nehisi Coates, an exploration of the country’s history written as a letter to his adolescent son. Not long after, the county’s chief librarian sent the list to Suzette Baker, head of one of the library’s three branches.
“She told me to look at pulling the books off the shelf and possibly putting them behind the counter. I told them that was censorship,” Baker said....
