'Gay-straight' clubs in schools anger foes
The Washington Times ^ | 11-18-04 | Christina Bellantoni

Family groups and state lawmakers say "gay-straight" student clubs in the region — some even are operating at middle schools — promote homosexuality and encourage teens to be sexually active. Students in Virginia, Maryland and the District have formed dozens of such school clubs in an attempt to foster tolerance. The formation of these cl

Finally, people are speaking out about these officially sponsored efforts to promote in public schools the morality of homosexual activity. I love these gems:

"Parents are afraid of these groups because they don't understand them"..."When gay-straight alliances get started, they receive opposition from extremists in the area, who feel somehow it's promoting a homosexual agenda."

Yup, it's that great old liberal tolerance for diversity again. If one exercises one's constitutional right to believe that homosexual activity is immoral, then one is automatically ruled both ignorant and extreme.

If anyone has no choice but to keep their kids in a public school with sexualized clubs and education, be prepared to drop buzz phrases like "hostile learning environment" and "verbal harassment" and "my child fears for his/her safety" when the homosexual agenda rears its head. School officials will be competing with each other to see how high they can jump for you.

Why not S&M clubs or fetish clubs? We need to be tolerant of all sexual desires and celebrate them all.

My HS age kids say the gay-straight alliances are PC faculty fostered gay clubs. They are avoided by the normal like the plague that they are.

This is why I will eat dirt if I have to in order to be able to afford private school for my children.

All the more reason Dads, to be there for your children every step along the way as they are growing up. The best defense against this kind of filth is arming a child with confidence, self-assurance, faith, and love through the patient, disciplined, loving relationship only a father can offer. Only then will they themselves be able to recognize this for what it is... sickness. I am sure I am preaching to the choir here, so I would love to hear if anyone has any practical solutions...

I was talking to some high school students and I told them they should all join. Then, they should elect a straight President, Vice-President and Treasurer. And then they should issue an official statement of the Gay-Straight club to the effect that while students should be tolerant, they should also be aware that gay sex is harmful and could expose participants to deadly painful diseases and an early horrible death.

I wondered about this. Are there any straight students who belong? What do they contribute? If it's called the Gay-Straight Alliance, do they have quotas?

Each generation takes to excess, what the preceding generation accepted in moderation.

My 15 year old daughter attends Catholic High School. Yesterday in religion class she told the entire class that the school is hypocritical allowing gay clubs when the Catholic Church doesn't condone "gayness".

The rest of the class ripped her, but she stood her ground, and the teacher, thankfully, said she had made a good point.

I'm so proud of my daughter.

The queer left have a vested interest in ensuring that our young are desensitized to homosexual acts so that the advancement of the queer agenda is easy in the upcoming generation. The "GSLEN" and the "PFLAG" are nothing more than a political propaganda organs that flourish due to the infiltration of politically motivated liberals in the public school system. You nearly get nauseous when you hear them use the word "Parents" in their organization's name. It's a sign of how far these organizations have evolved over the last 15 years or so. That's why parents and *real* childrens' advocacy groups have to fight this to the bitter end. Parents and children have to be informed that the advancement of the homo-agenda into middle and jr. highschool age-groups will inevitably lead to a higher death rate among our youth. Young people, teens, parents *MUST* be informed of what sicknesses, debilitations and fatal consequences will attend the unsafe, unsanitary practice of regular anal sex. Sorry to be so graphic, but the point must be driven home that what these groups are advocating for their children is completely unacceptable and that the schools should take whatever steps necessary to remove or disassociate from them.
