Brannon Howse is a liar?

According to e-mails Brannon Howse has received, the Collierville, TN Barnes and Noble employee has now reportedly changed her story as to what she told Brannon about some things that have happen at that store in Collierville and now Brannon is receiving e-mails that he is a liar.

So, Brannon's guest on today's radio program was Gwen, the mom of three that saw and heard everything that happen to Brannon Howse and his son inside the Barnes and Noble in Collierville. Did you really expect B&N employees to keep reporting the truth when it could hurt business or after management got to them?

Are you ready to take a stand for what is right even if it means your integrity, character and good name will be attacked? America is going down the tubes because people have lost the courage of their convictions to stand alone and stand firm under attack. Listen to today's show and get an update of how this mad dad is pressing on and warning parents about the potential harm to children no matter how many names he is called.



Click here to listen to Brannon's Monday evening broadcast. Please send to all your friends in town....Thank you.

Here is a link to the book that was laid open twice in one night at the Barnes and Noble store. Be sure to read the description of the book.

Brannon was a guest on 7 radio programs today, 5 of them national shows with a combined total of more than 650 stations. We have received phone calls and numerous e-mails from moms and grandmothers from all over the country that mirror very closely what Brannon has reported here in town.

Here is one of those e-mails.

Please help me to contact, or give my information to Brannon Howse. I had the exact thing happen to my triplet 11 year old boys, while we were walking into the 'children's' section of the store!! It was right there near the children's books, displayed on a shelf at children's eye level...books with pictures of men having gay sex together...my boys turned white, and ran to get me. They will NEVER get their innocence back, after seeing that...This is horrible, and when I complained, even to the upper corporation... they did nothing! I would like Brannon Howse, from Collierville, TN to contact me so we can do something about it together! My name is Dena I live in Flower Mound, TX (phone number and e-mail address removed) I PRAY you give him my contact information to help fight this evil! Please help!

Eleven Year Old Exposed To Gay Porn At Barnes and Noble and They Knew This Sort of Thing Was Happening

By Brannon Howse

On June 5th, my eleven year old son joined me in a visit to our local Barnes and Noble Bookstore in Collierville, TN. I was horrified at what my son saw. Open on a table was a very large, full-color, picture book displaying a man in full frontal nudity. The cover was two men kissing with the title GAY SEX.

This book was filled with full-color pictures of gay men doing what they do...Yes, it was that graphic.

The assistant manager told me that this was the second time that night this book had been laid open in the store. She also informed me that such books were regularly found in the men's room. I believe some homosexual or child predator was trolling and using the book to find a date or victim. The assistant manager told me a young boy had been sexually assaulted in the bathroom at this store and the man was never caught. She also said they had found a gun on the counter in the bathroom on another occasion.

My police department does not have a record of either incident which was very disturbing to a police investigator I talked with. I guess a gun in the bathroom and a sexual assault of a child would not be good publicity so not reporting it would be better? A friend of mine read my original article and called to thank me for taking this public because his elementary son has entered into this bathroom by himself a few times.

After sharing these disturbing stories with me, the assistant manger walked me to where the book was normally kept. Was it behind a counter? No, it was on the top shelf of a bookcase that any 13 year old could reach. Welcome to the 21st Century where being gay is mainstream and celebrated as normal in a family bookstore. Click the link at the bottom of this article and listen to my national radio program to find out what I am going to do.


I returned to the Barnes and Noble the next day to document the placement of their pornographic books. I have three places where books that included pictures of either homosexual porn or heterosexual porn were placed throughout their bookshelves. One section of books was low enough that my five year old could have pulled them from the shelf.
Collierville, TN does not have an ordinance that requires this type of material to be behind a counter out of reach of children or moved into a restricted area that requires a person to be 18 or older to enter.

This is one more example of where elected officials have the opportunity to implement public policy that protects the innocence of our children as well as accounts for their physical safety. You can bet I will be working for such a city ordinance as well as working to make sure state law 39-17-911 is enforced and there is a penalty for robbing my son's innocence.


I am working with the American Family Association to have an e-mail go to 3 million people calling for a boycott of Barnes and Nobel until they put this garbage behind a counter or in a restricted area where children can not see it or have access to it.

This story has now gone nation wide through my national radio program, my 30 minute appearance on the Michael Reagan program (son of President Ronald Reagan) as well as through several national news outlets.

I am booked on numerous national radio programs this week. It is really too bad for Barnes and Noble that this happen to my son because I will use what most fathers don't have at their disposal....a national audience and friends who have big radio programs, TV programs and huge e-mail alert systems. My friend, Mike Reagan sent my national press release to the personal e-mail address of Sean Hannity and I sent it to the producer for Bill O’Reilly and he replied back to me. So, be watching because this mad dad is going as far as he can with this. I am fighting this not only for my son but for every parent and grandparent that joins me in being angry about Barnes and Noble's irresponsible and, I believe, illegal business practice.
It is really too bad the elected officials in my town are so clueless. A code enforcer where I live in Collierville, TN woke up my friend recently to tell him his for sale sign was 11 feet, not 12 feet, from the curb. He had just returned from driving all night long from Houston from a doctor's appointment. He is recovering from cancer. The code enforcers have made companies move a shrub a few feet to match their original landscape plan. Yet, no town code for a store to keep porn from a child. Thus, I have to run to an official in the county for help instead of in my own town where I live.
I think the elected officials in my town are straining at gnats and swallowing camels. I bet during an election year they will all be Mr. Pro-family now and they will be looking for that press coverage as the town hero by offering up an ordinance. Real sincere....thanks guys for being asleep at the switch. This is the same story repeated a thousands times throughout America.
I am so tired of watching elected officials use their positions to help their buddies, developer friends, and themselves instead of focusing on how they can fulfill the purpose of a limited government. I read recently of a mayor that is a realtor that appointed herself to her town’s planning commission, a councilman that bid on a city project for his company and another councilman involved in a questionable land development plan. When will the American people wake up and see the danger our children face when we don’t elect people to office who are pro-active, vigilant and focused like a laser on how they can protect and serve instead of how they can be self-served?
As far as Barnes and Noble is concerned, welcome to the 21st Century where homosexuality is now mainstreamed into a family bookstore that has a huge children’s department. Sadly the chances are greater in some states that I would get charged with a hate-crime for speaking out about this rather than the store being fined.

I have received lots of e-mails since taking this story national and the stories are rolling in of many similar sad, stories at other Barnes and Noble stores and other such family bookstores.


Here is an e-mail I received Friday morning after this Thursday night incident. It turns out that this lady recognized me because she had attended our Worldview Weekend in Memphis, TN. This lady witnessed the entire incident.


Dear Mr. Howse,

As a parent, I was so very proud of you for the stand you took at Barnes and Noble on Thursday evening….I prayed silently as you spoke to the manager. The fact that your son was exposed to such material grieved me deeply and I have asked the Lord to restore his heart and erase that image from his mind. We are proud parents of 3 home educated sons: 17, 12 and 10 so we understand the importance of guarding our children's purity. After consulting with my husband, he said I should not let this go and contact the Collierville, TN police to investigate. I did so and spoke to a gentleman who was likewise deeply concerned about your son and what he saw…. He said the single most important action I can take is to go directly to Barnes and Noble and speak to the manager concerning my objection of certain materials they display. Again, thank you for being courageous and standing for truth and I am asking the Lord to help Barnes and Noble Clean House so that no children would ever again be exposed to material that harms them. If folks wish to purchase trash, there are places they may go, that children cannot. This bookstore has a responsibility to the public and children and they must be held accountable for what they display and sell……

……We must hold companies such and Barnes and Noble Bookstore to a standard of common decency. Last night, this basic principle was violated and your son paid the price. When the Lord goes before us, one voice can bring about change. It is no mistake that I was there and praying for you as you handled this difficult situation, in speaking out you are protecting the innocent from harm….. It would be a privilege to stand with your family in this. My 17 and 12 yr old sons were with me last night, it could have been them or someone else’s' innocent child assaulted with such an image..........

Sincerely,
Gwen


We are joining with the American Family Association and calling for Americans to boycott Barnes and Noble on a national level until they change their policy and stop selling this material, place it behind a counter or in a restricted area where only 18 and older can enter. We will send out an alert soon where you can e-mail Barnes and Noble. The American Family Association will be sending their alert to as many as three million people. Remember, this could happen to your child or grandchild. Stay tuned.
