May 13, 2024
Members of the Augusta County School Board in Verona, Virginia have decided a new policy needs to be created after a high school art student offended their sensibilities by using her work to highlight faith-based bigotry.
The artwork was created by Abby Driscoll, a senior at Fort Defiance High School. The background features pages from the Bible. The text reads, God loves you but not enough to save you.

My own feeling is that Christian bullies should be pissed off as much as possible so they''ll retreat out of politics and ino their rotten churches and leave the rest of us to find our own way, fuckyewverymuch.
