One speaker accused the school board of showing "intolerance of the faith community."

Rival demonstrations took place outside the Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) headquarters in Rockville, Maryland, on Tuesday over a policy update ending the parental right to opt out of having their children taught using LGBTQ+ inclusive books.

The protest against removing the opt-out was organized by Family Rights for Religious Freedom and Moms for Liberty, attracting scores of Muslim and Christian attendees who chanted "protect our children" and "religious freedom now." A couple of dozen counter-protesters rallied against them, responding with shouts of "protect trans kids" and "secular schools!"

Teaching about LGBTQ+ relationships in schools has become a heated topic across the United States. Tuesday also saw violent clashes break out in Glendale, California, as competing protesters gathered while the Glendale Unified School District board met to discuss recognizing June as Pride Month.

The reporter claimed one Muslim speaker described ending the opt-out as "intolerance of the faith community," with another commenting: "We identify with our religion. You have to be fair and equal in accepting different identities. Please reinstate the opt-out since it's fair, it's equal, and it respects all."

It is how this world is so sick and perverted to be pushing this garbage of lgbtq on children. I can understand both Christian and Muslims being upset about this. Just don't go for the Chrislam nonsense. They do not worship the same God we do. There is people getting involved in the interfaith movement.

It makes me wonder if both CHristians and Muslims workign against this could offer avenues to share our faith in Jesus Christ?
