We, the undersigned, are appalled that the Washoe County Library System is behind the orchestration of the controversial and provocative “Drag Queen Story Hour” and the WCLS participating in the Gay Pride Parade.

The Washoe Count Library System must stop the promotion of this outrageous activity for children.

Updates

June 20, 2019

I have been reviewing the feedback from concerned parents who refuse to let these programs influence our children in public spaces. My focus remains on holding the library administration accountable for their clear disregard of our community values.

June 20, 2019

Seeing this level of support confirms that so many of you feel the same deep concern for our children that I do. This momentum shows that our community refuses to stay silent while these events are forced into our public spaces.

Whoever reads to children in a public setting should not have an agenda to push their belief system on young children who are unable to fully understand the full impact on their memory and thought patterns.

Drag queens admit that drag is extremely sexual. This isn't something that children should be exposed to. Would you expose kids to other highly sexualized groups?

Not appropriate to be using our tax dollars to fund an agenda. This agenda has no influence on improved reading abilities of the targeted audience. This is strictly a social agenda and pushing things upon ones who do not want it pushed on.

Who thinks up this non-sense. Would you put a thief or murder in the library to read to children? Time we start moving back to common sense, something considered normal, and quit shoving all this sexual non-sense down the throats of young children.

It is my belief that not only should it be shoved down my children or grand children’s throats but, tax dollars should not be used or spent to propagate vial behavior.
