Part of the hypocrisy of the "anti-bullying" movement is that the concept of bullying is never defined in a meaningful way. Evidently, bullying is one of those things that is defined by the "victim."
Hence, we have the spectacle of the man who created the video "It Gets Better" can speak against the bullying of gay kids, but then turn around and bully kids with Christian beliefs - and get away with it.
Fox News:
As many as 100 high school students walked out of a national journalism conference after an anti-bullying speaker began cursing, attacked the Bible and reportedly called those who refused to listen to his rant "pansy asses."
The speaker was Dan Savage, founder of the "It Gets Better" project, an anti-bullying campaign that has reached more than 40 million viewers with contributors ranging from President Obama to Hollywood stars. Savage also writes a sex advice column called "Savage Love."
Savage, and his husband, were also guests at the White House for President Obama's 2011 LGBT Pride Month reception. He was also invited to a White House anti-bullying conference.
[...]
Rick Tuttle, the journalism advisor for Sutter Union High School in California, was among several thousand people in the audience. He said they thought the speech was one thing - but it turned into something else.
"I thought this would be about anti-bullying," Tuttle told Fox news. "It turned into a pointed attack on Christian beliefs."

It’s what leftscum do: take a good cause, change the meaning of the words (here “bullying” has been changed to mean “Christian”), and use the deception to dupe people...
Illinois Bishop: Obama ‘intent on following a similar path’ as Hitler, Stalin [AUDIO] and text with quotes.
This isn’t new coming from Dan Savage. He’s a bitchy vindictive homosexual who has done stuff like this before. The fact that this “guy” and Lady Gaga are involved should be a big clue that this new focus on bullying has a lot more to do with promoting homosexuality than it does protecting students from being bullied.
This should tell a lot more students, parents and people who learn about this, that “journalism” studies just as “education” studies are doorways used to enter and influence young minds.
“Ever hang around a sandbox and listen to 4 and 5 year olds? Your blood will curdle at some of the stuff that is said. Teasing, name calling, and other manifestations of rigid social organization among children where those not in your “group” are targets for abusive language and behavior has been going on since the species walked out of Africa.”
Well said.
The problem with the gays is that they seem to be thin-skinned and are so easily offended when called names by the vast majority of folks that are offended by their homo practices.
It seems that every time you turn around there are a bunch of queers that raise all kinds of heck simply because they are offended by someone’s words.
Sounds like this leftist has learned the Alinsky method.
The whole point of the “anti-bullying” movement is to stifle critical analysis.
Someone’s feelings might be hurt if their arguments are shown to be devoid of rational thought.
Poof goes the 1st Amendment.
One has to wonder at whether Mr. "THavage" (seen on the right) perceives the irony involved in calling someone else a "pansy ass."
Dan Savage felt it was important to tell the assembled students how good his partner looks in a Speedo.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
These disgusting perverts are deliberately dismantling America...of course, what they do in the bedroom in none of our concern.
Right.
Perverts. This had nothing to do with bullying. It’s foisting their perversions on everybody else. And bullying those that don’t accept it in the way they demand you do. For 1 percent of the population they cry like they are 30 percent and everyone seems afraid of them.
THavage is the “Wife.”
But he calls others “pansy ass?”
I wonder what his “husband” calls *his* ass.
Mr. Moran...Savage doesn’t have a ‘husband’...you’re buying into it...
Faggies are a lot like Muslims, IMO.
Zero tolerance for any criticism of their ways. Violent response to those who dare to.
He does not have a “husband”. In spite of what some wish to believe, a marriage consists of one member of the opposite sex being united or joined with another member of the opposite sex. Always has, always will.
