www.zerohedge.com Lawmakers from Poland’s Law & Justice party, who won a second term in Sunday’s election, have backed a new draft law that establishes jail terms for promoting “sexual activity” to minors, according to Reuters.
Liberals argue that this includes teaching the benefits of condoms or educating minors about the LGBTQ community.
The legislation is making its way to a parliamentary committee for “further work”.
Opposition lawmaker Joanna Scheuring-Wielgus said:
“Disgrace for the deputies … who referred for further work a project punishing sex education with prison.”
Hundreds of protesters gathered around parliament to voice opposition to the law.
Anton Lewandowska, 23, from the Ponton Group, a voluntary organization that provides sex education said:
“The attempt to limit access to education is a direct attack on all of us. Many people I know who do sex education are scared to do our work despite the fact that it is a basic right of every person.”
Polish schools don’t offer traditional sex education, but rather they teach students how to “prepare for family life”. Cities backed by liberals have started to allow sex ed programs in some schools, prompting backlash from the Catholic Church and the Law & Justice Party.$
Sex education has NO PLACE in public schools. That is the responsibility of the parents!
#Truth! They don’t teach sex education in public schools, there are grooming our children for sexual exploitation.
Take this one to the chat room, Methos.
Exactly! At what point did we surrender all common sense & hand over parental responsibilities to strangers pushing immoral agendas? The damage is deep & blatantly evident and the fight to reverse these errors must be pursued to protect our children.
