A prince lassos a dragon, saving a knight in shining armor from certain death. But the prince slips and as he falls, the knight and his steed race to return the favor.

Then the two men fall in love.

That story, “Prince and Knight,” is one of five children’s books featuring LGBTQ characters and aimed at kindergarten through the fifth grade that have roiled a diverse suburban Maryland school district and led to a Supreme Court case that the justices will hear on Tuesday.

Parents in Montgomery County who object for religious reasons want to pull their children from elementary school classes that use the books.

    Wholesome story featuring a consensual romance but the two characters just happen to be the same sex?

    Nein!

    Two nudists frolicking through a garden with a peeping Tom snake, dude butt-fucking his own dad, two daughters having sex with their drunken old dad, patriach creating an entire ethnic group with his half-sister and a side chick to boot, king sends one of his best men to die so he can bang his wife, deity has child with mortal woman and even convinces her husband that it’s OK and that child becomes a leader that gets executed?

    Ja!
