They banned. We will not support or provide comfort for individuals who promote bigotry or homophobia.

Calling an entire group of people "pedophiles" is wrong and I understand why they might get booted.

However, I think we need to be open enough to debate whether it's a good idea to have drag queen story hours in local libraries or schools. That could be a good discussion as long as we keep from straying into the "crude stereotypes" territory.

I think the same can be said about discussions regarding race, crime, depression or anything else that occurs in the commonwealth.

Sure, if you can have that discussion without implying that you are grooming people or introducing them to pedophiles or sex workers, you can have that discussion respectfully.

That said, I have yet to see anyone be able to have such a conversation that is not rooted in bigotry or homophobia and the stereotypes associated.
