Venice’s New Mayor Bans 49 Books from School Libraries

Most of the banned books deal with homosexuality and gender issues.

“We don’t want to discriminate against anyone and at home parents can call themselves daddy number one and daddy number two, but I have to consider the majority of families, which have a mum and a dad,” Venice Mayor Luigi Brugnaro tells Italian newspaper La Repubblica. “It is parents who should educate children about these things, not schools.”

Why do hatemongers always use children as an excuse to promote their own bigotry?
