MA MassResistance Exposes Obscene Materials at West Boylston Library

 

Another library director defends the indefensible: Argues that obscene LGBT books should be available to children.

A mother had confronted the library with the horrible medical facts on those behaviors.

Children should have the “freedom to read” about explicit LGBT sexual acts, answers library director

Regurgitates radical pro-LGBT American Library Association talking points supporting obscenity

NOTE: Graphic descriptions below.

ALT TEXT The historic Beaman Memorial Library building in West Boylston, MA has become a place for children to avoid. But one mother is fighting back.

Sometimes you feel all alone in a local battle. But it’s still important to do at least something. And we can help you do it!

As we all know, even in small towns, libraries have become so radicalized and are pushing increasingly destructive material to children. So, many parents don’t want to take their children there any more. Here is yet another example.

West Boylston is a town of about 7,900 people in central Massachusetts located just north of Worcester. It’s not as left-leaning as most of the state, voting about 56% Democrat vs 44% Republican. Last year, the town selectmen voted 4-1 to fire the Town Administrator because he ordered the police to take down a Trump flag hanging in the police exercise room.

West Boylston’s Beaman Memorial Public Library was built in 1912 and is in the National Register of Historic Places for its Colonial Revival architecture. But if the people who built it could visit it now, they’d certainly be sickened.

Shocking, graphic LGBT “pride” books for kids

A few weeks ago during “pride month,” a mother (and MassResistance activist) in West Boylston strolled into the library and was “greeted” by a display of graphic homosexual-themed books for children and teenagers. She couldn’t believe it.

Books in the Beaman Library for children and teenagers include:

Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe: Explicit drawings of teens having homosexual sex with each other, including a “transgender boy” (a girl pretending to be a boy) sucking on a boy’s penis. One drawing is of a man lying back on a bed with his legs spread while the other man is lying between his legs. Typical dialogue: "I can't wait to have your cock in my mouth.”

Flamer by Mike Curato:  Crude descriptions of “gay” boys talking a Christian boy into engaging in homosexual oral sex and anal sex with them. He then “embraces” his newly accepted homosexuality. There’s a sick description of boys masturbating into a bottle and forcing another boy to masturbate in front of them, or else drink it.

Confronting the library director with graphic medical information

But what could this woman do all by herself? All her friends are afraid to speak out. She contacted us and we worked with her. She wrote a no-holds-barred letter to the library director. He’s probably never received anything like it before!

Her letter said this:

It has come to my attention that the library is displaying a large selection of LGBT(+) books in the teen section. The contents of these books are detrimental to the mental and physical growth of our youngest and most vulnerable by presenting homosexuality / transgenderism as normal.

These books should be permanently taken out of circulation. They encourage poor decision-making, incur a high risk of serious health problems and are rife with pornography. As a hard-working taxpayer of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, I object that my money is being used to fund these books.

I have some questions and thoughts for you:

  1. Homosexuality is not innate, and no one is born in the wrong body.
  2. Homosexual conduct is inherently harmful to the body. Please see the attached excerpt from the Christian Medical & Dental Associations.
  3. Would you allow a display promoting drug use or suicide, too?
  4. The library should include a copy of a book, The Health Hazards of Homosexuality in its collection. May I provide you a copy?

As the descriptions above show, the library books are very graphic. So in addition to the letter, she provided some graphic medical information to counter them!

She included a few pages of unfiltered information from the Christian Medical & Dental Associations describing some of the repulsive sexual practices and ensuing diseases and other health problems that directly result from LGBT behaviors.

The Health Hazards of Homosexuality brings together information from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and prominent medical groups on this crucial subject.

The library director responds

About a week later, she received a letter in response from the library director. It was condescending and bureaucratic.

  • He did not address any of the medical information that she included (which is also documented in many other places).
  • Instead, he defended having the books there. He quoted the library’s collection policy  (obviously put in by leftist library officials) which echoes the ALA’s talking points. It basically says that the library can bring in any material for children it wishes because parents must have the “right” to let their children see it. It’s up to parents to police what children see in the library, the policy says.
  • Moreover, the library has no duty to protect children from pornography on its shelves. “The library will not deselect materials in an effort to protect others,” he said.
  • If citizens don’t want any of the books to be there, they can go through the library’s bureaucratic book challenge progress.
  • Regarding accepting a donation of our book, The Health Hazards of Homosexuality, he was particularly patronizing and pompous. Even though the book’s material is sourced from recognized medical groups, it was compiled by an “advocacy group” and has not been reviewed by the library’s “professional selection sources.” We can imagine the “professional selection sources” he used to acquire Gender Queer and the other filth the library stocks for children. We’d love to go through the non-fiction there and see the results of the “strict” processes they used.

Final thoughts

Even if you’re just one person, telling the truth is still powerful. It’s the beginning of change.

And it’s also the beginning of leaving your fear behind, which is critical because leftists depend on your fear for their agendas to continue. So even though MassResistance is starting big “fires” of change in many communities, we’re also encouraging small fires everywhere!

The Signatory Legacy of Founding Father Roger Sherman

 



Roger Sherman's Signature Legacy
Sherman’s unparalleled political resume spans multiple major milestones in early American history: [1, 2]
  • The Continental Association (1774): Signed while serving in the First Continental Congress, enforcing economic boycotts on British trade. [1, 2]
  • The Declaration of Independence (1776): Served on the Committee of Five tasked with drafting this historic document. [1, 2]
  • The Articles of Confederation (1777/1778): Helped draft America's first constitution and championed the inclusion of equal representation for smaller states. [1, 2]
  • The U.S. Constitution (1787): Played a vital role in the Constitutional Convention by proposing the "Great Compromise" (establishing a bicameral legislature). [1, 2]
The Treaty of Paris and Sherman's Role
While John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and John Jay served as the official diplomats who directly negotiated the terms with Great Britain, Sherman was a sitting member of the Congress that formally ratified the treaty to end the Revolutionary War in 1783. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Sherman's prolific legislative career did not stop there. He went on to represent Connecticut in the U.S. House of Representatives and later the U.S. Senate before his death in 1793. [1, 2, 3, 4]

LA County for Trump: Eight Years Later, What Happened?

From early 2017 until mid-2018, I was active with a large coalition of Angelenos fighting the good fight for President Trump.

We went to protests, we led rallies, and we participated in marches in and around Los Angeles to support the President and advocate for his policies.

Some of the biggest movers and shakers in the movement got together for multiple Independence Day bashes throughout Southern California, including Genevieve Peter's home in the Sherman Oaks area.

Here's the group photo:

From back to front, left to right: Jesse Suave, Charles Beltran, David Hernandez, Joseph Cheng, Rachelle Mand, Megan Dowling, Patricia James, Raphael Hwong, Mama Leonor Ferris, Dawna Schoenberger, Elsa Aldeguer, Arthur Schaper, Harim Uzziel Vargas, Genevieve Peters Scott


A lot of people have followed up with me to ask what happened to the team. Where is everyone now?

Here's a basic rundown, as best as I can remember or relate.

I see Rachelle Mand (the lady with curly hair and glasses) at the Torrance-Lomita-Palos Verdes Republican Assembly meetings all the time. She's still in the fight.

Harim Uzziel Vargas (the guy at the front wearing a black shirt and a black MAGA hat) turned on all of us. He insisted that we could not be friends with people whom he did not like, which betrays a deep lack of maturity. He cut me off as he cut off many others.

Mama Leonor (the lady with long white hair and the stars and stripes on her shirt) is still kicking butt, but I have not seen her in years. I did connect with her briefly at an event earlier this year, but we didn't talk that much.

Genevieve Peters (on the right, in front of me) lives in Michigan now. She was born there, but moved to California to help with the George W. Bush campaign. She lived in the Golden State for years, and she was such a great help to all of us. After moving back to Michigan, he got married in 2023! Her husband, John Scott, is very supportive of the MAGA cause, too!

Elsa Aldeguer and I connect from time to time. We both supported Bianco for governor. I saw her late March, when I gave a speech to the Hollywood Republican Assembly. She has always been so supportive of me.

Joseph Cheng (the Asian guy with the shaved head) still connects with me from time to time, too. He supports me on social media. Unlike some in the MAGA-verse, he didn't get angry with me when I supported Governor Ron DeSantis for President in 2024. Yes, I voted for Trump in the general election. I am glad that I did, and I am glad that he is keeping promises this time, which he had made last time,

Megan Dowling was a hard-core Trump supporter. She attended lots of Tea Party rallies, was active in the local Republican clubs, and she attended lots of city council meetings to protest the sanctuary state law SB 54 in 2018.

Then she went to the dark side, celebrating all things Palestinian. All of this came out after the October 7th, 2023, terrorist attacks on Israel. From that time on, she started blathering about how she opposed Zionism, hated Israel, and supported the "Palestinian" cause. She now spends every Sunday in Redondo Beach protesting Israel along with the local group of left-wing activists.

Patricia (can't remember her last name. UGH!) is still active, but I don't really talk to her. She was really helpful when I didn't have a car (or a lot of money!), so she would drive me to events.

I haven't seen Charles Beltran in a while. We had a falling out. It's a long story that I don't want to get into.

Lots of people don't know the story behind Raphael, but I feel safe sharing some of the details now. Raphael was a good friend, very close to me. He helped me when I had suffered a stroke in 2019, and then when I had another health scare two years later. Unfortunately, he became dark and cynical about everything. He would just complain about all the problems, and it was so draining. The last time I sat down with him, the day before Independence Day 2023, all he would do was perseverate about the end of the conservative movement and how everything was falling apart. I couldn't deal with his constant complaining and negativity anymore. I had to let him go, and I have not spoken to him since. It is very sad what happened to him.

I still see David Hernandez all the time. He is doing great work for the Trump and Republican cause in Los Angeles. He is fighting the good fight and really thinking big for the state of California. In fact, he is a Vice Chair for the California Republican Party, and he recently got re-elected to the position.

Jesse Suave is still active, doing great stuff. He registers voters and shows up to protests from time to time. I had dinner with him and a few others earlier this year.  I have talked with him a few times, and I see him at a lot of Christian events.

Dawna Schoenberger was well-known as an awesome biker chick. I attended her birthday a few years ago in South Orange County. It was great to see her again, along with her kids. She is living somewhere in the Inland Empire now. We haven't talked lately, but she supports my work with MassResistance, which means a lot to me.

So, what happened to LA County for Trump?

Life happened, hard times happened, and new challenges came up.

I was working as a freelance journalist and activist for a year and a half. Time and money were growing tight, and I needed to find stable work. MassResistance, the international pro-family group that makes a difference, hired me in July 2018. I am celebrating my eighth year with the organization! That work has taken me to all sorts of places, and it has also required so much of my time that I no longer had time for Trump events.

During COVID-19, I was focused on the health freedom fight as well as exposing all the corruption in the public school system, which became so evident after kids were forced to stay home and get their education virtually. Parents finally witnessed all the grooming and corruption taking place in the government schools, and they demanded change!

From there, after Trump left office (Stolen Election!), I started doing other health freedom-related activism as well as my full-time work for MassResistance.

I soured on Trump in late 2022, when all of his US Senate picks failed and he chanted about protecting "gay rights." A lot of MAGA backed away from me in those days because I supported Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. I stepped away from a lot of other activism in those days, too, because I was tired of just doing the rallies. I wanted results, and I witnessed how just attending local government meetings and yelling at politicians wasn't getting the job done.

President Trump 2.0 has been a vast improvement over his first term, and he is setting the stage for great reforms and restoration in this country. I am hoping that more citizens get involved in the political process as well as the culture war. My main focus is MassResistance, but I am also writing more, getting published by American Thinker, American Greatness, Townhall.com, Canada Free Press, 2 Urban Girls, and other sites.

There's the basic rundown for now. Hope everyone is doing well, and let's not stop fighting for MAGA every day we can!


Response to RLn on "Charter Reform Massacre"



It’s charter reform season in Los Angeles, and once again, LA City chose virtue-signaling over virtue.

The city council rejected the proposal to expand city council seats to twenty-five. Of course they did! City councilmembers don’t want to limit or share their power with more colleagues, but it’s a reform much-needed, all the same. Perhaps Mr. Allen and RLn could launch a citizen initiative to add seats to the LA City Council. Supervisor Hahn and the LA County Board majority initiated, and voters approved the county reforms to expand the number of seats to nine members. Ask Aunt Janice to help you!
Rank-choice voting? Bad move, LA. Don’t do it! It will eliminate your vote, and it’s so complicated and convoluted that even Governor Gavin Newsom, the Washington DC Democratic Party, and activists in Alameda County have rejected it or called for its repeal.
One interesting (i.e., disturbing) reform passed: allowing non-citizens to vote.
Progressive President FDR declared: "The right to vote must be open to our citizens irrespective of race, color, or creed—without tax or artificial restriction of any kind." Progressive President LBJ, when he signed the 1965 Voting Rights Act, stated: “Americans of every race and color and origin in this country have the same right as all others to share in the process of democracy.” Americans, not non-citizens!
To his credit, City Councilman Tim McOsker voted against this charter reform, along with four of his colleagues. Let’s hope Los Angeles voters (i.e., citizens!) reject it, too.

The Last Public Execution in France (1939)

Eugen Weidmann, the last condemned person executed 
publicly in France



What do you think?

Should European countries bring back the death penalty? 

Should the death penalty be administered in public?

Why do you think the death penalty was secluded from public view in the 20th century? Many found the final death blows unsettling, so the offense or extreme nature of the proceedings alone cannot explain why capital punishment was removed from public view.

Why have we seen more countries abolish the death penalty in the first place?

Here's a dramatization of the final public execution in France:

Many will be shocked to learn that European countries still administered the death penalty via guillotine in the late 20th century, and not just France:

(Result from Google AI search)

The guillotine was primarily used in France until capital punishment was abolished there in 1981. However, several other nations and territories also adopted the device for executions before completely abolishing the death penalty (or before abandoning the guillotine for other execution methods): [1, 2, 3]
  • Germany: Used extensively (particularly during the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich). West Germany abolished the death penalty in 1949, and East Germany used the guillotine until 1967. [1]
  • Switzerland: Used for executions until the abolition of the death penalty for civil crimes in 1942. [1, 2, 3, 4]
  • Belgium: Utilized as a standard execution method until 1916. [1]
  • Sweden: Replaced manual beheading with the guillotine in 1906, executing only one person with it in 1910 before abolishing capital punishment in 1921. [1]
  • Greece: Used the device from 1834 to 1913. [1]
  • Luxembourg: Used the guillotine between 1798 and 1821. [1, 2]
  • Monaco: Utilized the device until 1847. [1]
  • Vietnam: Employed the machine during the French colonial era and by the Republic of Vietnam until 1961. [1]
  • The Papal States: Used a guillotine (introduced in 1810) until the capture of Rome in 1870. [1]

For a long time, I had believed that the death penalty was abolished in France in 1977, but that form of punishment was outlawed in 1981. France's final execution by guillotine took place in 1977. In fact, it was the last execution by guillotine ever to take place!
