Reply to comment by chasetwisters in The new "district approved" stickers that Hanover teachers have to use because rainbows aren't allowed by Awrnawr

The local Hanover Patriots who have spent all last year targeting trans kids realized that some teachers had "Safe Space" stickers and decided to spam the school board with emails. The school board who worked with ADF (big anti-lgbtq legal group) last year responded by removing all of the safe space stickers in the schools.
So bigotry - that's what lead to this.

That group is practically a terrorist group in my eyes. They event participated in Jan 6 (they went up there, idk if they helped storm the capital or not).

They pitch themselves as a "Community Service" group, but that's just a façade. I don't know if anyone from the group actually went into the capital - but they recently had a fundraiser for someone from Hanover who did - they called him a "political prisoner".

Having sat through quite a few school board meetings watching some of their more outspoken members - they're not nice people.

Except "that organization" is any organization that supports LGBTQ+ students in any capacity - not just one. Meanwhile the school brings in an openly anti-LGBTQ legal organization to help write school policies.

Sure - no discrimination.

You obviously don't live in Hanover, know our school board, or the Hanover Patriots that were the cause of this.
