1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,240 Speaker 1: And Amanda jam. 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 2: Nation Jones arms for the pub tests. Councils banning books? 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 2: Does it pass the pub test? 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 3: Oh? You know, where do we put ourselves? This is 5 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 3: the Cumberland City Council. They've made a decision to ban 6 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 3: same sex parenting books from libraries. Nothing. This isn't in 7 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 3: a school. This is where you have choice to go 8 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 3: into a library. 9 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 2: So no one's teaching it. And the people that have 10 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 2: wanted to ban the book I have both said they 11 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 2: haven't actually read them. 12 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 3: That's right, they haven't read the book. He said that 13 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 3: the parenting books were sexualized and he just wants the 14 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 3: kids to just be kids. You know, modern families come 15 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 3: in all shapes and sizes, and if you were growing 16 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 3: up in a family where your parents are the same sex, 17 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 3: how do you feel about this? This is like from 18 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 3: fifty years ago. There's nothing sexual about this. And parents 19 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 3: have taken to this saying, I don't know what you 20 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 3: think goes on in the same sex family. We're raising 21 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 3: our kids, we're caring for them, we're cooking for them, 22 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 3: we're caring for our parents. We're loved members of the community. 23 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 3: What's weird about this? Yeah, this is not a sex book, 24 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 3: and this is a library, no one's forcing you to 25 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 3: read it. 26 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 2: But fundamentally as well, if you're in an Islamic family, 27 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: you're not going to have a same sex couple. You're 28 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: not going to deal with the same sex couple. Like 29 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 2: if you're in a Christian family, you're probably not going 30 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: to deal with the same sex couple. My sister is 31 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 2: in a marriage, she's married to a woman, she's got 32 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 2: two kids. So my thing about it, I'm invested in this. 33 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: I can't I can't say well, that's wrong because she's 34 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,559 Speaker 2: in my family. I'm a Catholic, but I'm a modern 35 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 2: Catholic and I appreciate the world is changing. I think 36 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 2: if you're going to bring ancient religions into politics, then 37 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: you shouldn't be in politics because ancient religions aren't moving 38 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 2: forward fast enough with the views of modern society. That's right, 39 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 2: and Australia is a modern society. 40 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 3: And also it's not taking in that's right, taking in 41 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 3: all the multicultural and diverse community members that you're supposed 42 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 3: to represent. How do you feel counsels banning books? Wow, 43 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 3: does it pass the pub test? 44 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 4: I've voted yes. Through the Gay and Lesbian marriages, but 45 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 4: we do not our children would be reading books about 46 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 4: same sex marriages, which has the potential to influence them 47 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 4: in their own sexuality. That is the job for the parents. 48 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 5: Oh definitely not as kind of a scary thought. And 49 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 5: I'm thinking now about getting tickets to Tucker Carlson so 50 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 5: I can avoid my objection. Definitely not, as today's society 51 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 5: is some saantic coupled and he just needs h get 52 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 5: out of his ast. 53 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: Really, I agree with it. Yeah, they should be taught 54 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,959 Speaker 1: to such young kids. There should be children from all that. 55 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 5: Oh hell no, because not only is it tended amount 56 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 5: to early Nazis where they started burning books. The only 57 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 5: thing that same sex couples have when their parenting style 58 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 5: is to produce children who are more open and more tolerant. 59 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 5: Absolutely not. If you don't like what's on the shelves, 60 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 5: don't read them, And if you don't want to read them, 61 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 5: go back to where your beliefs are. He doesn't belong here. 62 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: I think it's just the media trying to portray this 63 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: all the time, that it's a normal thing for people 64 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: of the same sex to sleep with each other as Yeah, okay, 65 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: fair enough, if that's what you want to do. But 66 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 1: why does everyone else have to have this inflicted on us? 67 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: Certainly does not, and I one hundred percent agree. 68 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 4: With what Jonesy said. That type of behavior from that 69 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 4: gentleman the counselor does not belong here. 70 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 3: And let's be clear, no one's inflicting it on any way, 71 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 3: on anyone. These are library books. If you're not part 72 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 3: of the curriculum. 73 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 2: If your four year old kid goes into the library 74 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: with a library card and says, can I take out 75 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: that book about same sex couples, then perhaps you might 76 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: have an argument, but it's not going to happen. No 77 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: one's forcing this down your throat. I would say this 78 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: to councils. Stick to your Fogo bins and stick to 79 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: approving that pagola that you've had wrapped up in red 80 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 2: tape from old Mate. Down, the rate of banks down, 81 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: and 82 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: Leave your libraries alone.
