CAMDENTON, Mo.— In a story you'll see only on KSPR, the American Civil Liberties Union says an Ozarks school district is the only one in the country that has refused to comply with a national campaign against censorship.
The Camdenton School Board met Tuesday to discuss the ACLU's federal lawsuit over its internet filter.
The ACLU claims Camdenton is blocking gay, lesbian and transgender informational websites, but allowing access to sites that condemn homosexuality. Tuesday the district talked to its attorneys; then parents talked to the district.
"This is really a small issue, but it's such a huge one."
So huge parents lined up outside the Camdenton schools administration building, inside the lobby, and in a conference room downstairs while the school board met behind closed doors to discuss the "small issue" that's landed it in a federal lawsuit.

Where in the Constitution does it say that schools have to let students use the Internet to look at homosexual webpages? I'm pretty sure the constitution doesn't say anything at all about the Internet. The school is doing the right thing by only allowing anti-homosexual webpages.
