Victoria Jackson Freaks Out Over Tiny Cartoony Genitals
Victoria Jackson Freaks Out Over Tiny Cartoony Genitals
Oh, boy, campers, looks like V-Jack is on a tear again! This time, she has discovered that there are a lot of books in public schools that she disagrees with! Just try and decipher this paragraph, which is not from a public school textbook, but from the blog of Victoria Jackson, which is a woman, that, wants to fix the schools so they are, better and more good, too:
...
Anyway, much of her post is dedicated to trashing It’s Perfectly Normal, an innocuous little sex-ed book for upper elementary-aged kids, which Jackson describes as “sexually explicit” and “Homosexuality is Normal propaganda.” It’s the source of that terrifying image above, which shows what different types of bodies look like when nekkid.
And as it turns out, Jackson also told a few fibs — which she has now removed from her blog, without a correction or any note about the revision — about the book, such as claiming that the book is used in classrooms and suggesting that the book is somehow connected to Common Core. Needless to say, the post launched a lot of angry calls to Tennessee schools, which then had to explain that, no, actually, they are not teaching fourth graders out of this book.

The current textbooks being used in public schools today, that your children are reading, memorizing and being tested on, are inaccurate, revisionist, anti-American, racist, climate change propaganda based on fake science, anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, pro-Islam, Marxist, globalist, pro-Socialism/Communism, pro-homosexuality, pro-abortion, and sexually explicit. Below is a list of examples and… who wrote the Pearson Publishing textbooks, that TN schools are now using. (Related story, as of Dec. 2013, Pearson Foundation fined millions for violating laws. Story here.)

THOMPSON’S STATION — Former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Victoria Jackson wants her next act to be as a Williamson County Commissioner.
Jackson, who moved to Thompson’s Station last year, is petitioning as an independent to become a candidate for one of two District 2 commission seats, currently held by commissioners Betsy Hester and John Hancock.
