Leave the lawyering to the lawyers

by Auguste at 5:38 am and filed under: Who's Unhinged?

How not to interpret proposed law:

…Bill O’Reilly claimed that, under a California state bill that would require textbooks to recognize the accomplishments of historical lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender [LGBT] figures, “if you are a teacher … you’re not going to be able to say bad things about [convicted murderer] Jeffrey Dahmer,” because Dahmer was “a gay cannibal.” Conservative columnist Michelle Malkin agreed that O’Reilly’s evaluation of the proposed legislation’s impact was “right,” adding that it “is a very radical, very extreme, dangerous bill” that “is pure political propaganda.” O’Reilly called the bill “a form of fascism … [i]n the sense that you have to say good things about this group.”

In fact, the proposal “would add the role and contributions of LGBT people” to the list of “traditionally underrepresented groups,” whose historical contributions, under current law, are required to be included in California “textbooks and other school instructional materials.”

Now, now, Michelle. Bill will never learn to stop making shit up if you keep enabling him.


Your love that dare not speak its name is so edible to me…
