South Carolina repugicans Cut College Funding Over Gay Themed Books

Red State repugican tyranny has been put on full display South Carolina repugicans have cut funding for two colleges that had freshmen read books that had gay themes. 

According to The State,

Some S.C. public colleges are coming under fire for the books they assign students and whether they follow a state law requiring instruction on the U.S. founding documents.
S.C. House budget writers voted Wednesday to take away nearly $70,000 from the College of Charleston and USC Upstate for having freshmen read books with gay themes
…
“One of the things I learned over the years is that if you want to make a point, you have to make it hurt,” repugican Gary Smith said. “I understand academic freedom, but this is not academic freedom. … This was about promoting one side with no academic debate involved.”

This is what limited government looks like under repugican rule. These so called champions of small government have no reservations about misusing their power to punish anyone or anything that dares to differ from their political agenda.
The hypocrisy is that these same repugicans argue that religious freedom must be protected at all costs while stomping all over academic freedom on a daily basis. It is now a punishable offense in South Carolina to assign literature with gay themes. Apparently, repugicans in the state believe that if homosexuality is never discussed, it will go away.
The repugicans have gone from trying to pray away the gay to trying to wipe all mention of it off anything that they control. South Carolina’s college students don’t want an indoctrination. They want an education. Higher education should expand horizons, and encourage students to think independently.
Independent thought is the enemy of the repugican cabal.
South Carolina repugicans are giving the rest of the country a dose of what red state repugican tyranny looks like, and it isn’t a pretty sight.
