Ceslie Garza, left, shows off a wedding dress to Richard Espinoza that she plans on wearing today in a simulated same-sex marriage at Silverado High School during lunch periods. The two, both members of the schools Gay Straight Alliance, along with fellow members, planned the weddings in honor of National Freedom to Marry Day on Saturday. The groups intention is to promote awareness, acceptance and tolerance of same-sex marriage.And on the flip side, if a kid brings a piece of cardboard, that looks even remotely like a gun, of if a 6 year old draws stick figures depicting "violence" they get suspended. I wonder what the Constitution says about their rights?
I have about had it with this gay rights BS. I use to not have anything against them but I am changing my mind.
"Students of the Gay-Straight Alliance Club at the Victorville high school..."
Why do we have sex clubs in our public schools? What the hell happened to 4-H?
This would be the first board member I'd vote out of office.
What a load of leftist doublespeak!
There is no violation by stopping the pretend weddings. It is not political speach.
If they are so tollerant then the Parents should IMMEDIATLY demand that the NARTH scientists be given EQUAL time to discuss how homosexuality is a treatable ILLNESS.
I guess this is the only school in the country that did not ban religious songs and prayer in clubs over the last winter holiday?
They must know of a different Consitution than the one used by Hudson High School in Massachusetts that wouldn't allow conservative students a fundraiser booth for "Adopt a Sniper"
Here is a link to the Students, Parents, and Guardians Rights and Responsibilities Handbook from the Victor Valley High School District which is the school district which also is responsible for Silverado High School.

This crap is OUT-OF-CONTROL!!!! This "Free Speech" abuse needs to stop. School Board members have no right to control the actions in their school? WTF?!!!!
Calling for School Vouchers for all right now! The more these government schools pull crap like this, the easier it will become to convince the masses that school vouchers are a good idea.
There should be an ExGay-Straight Alliance Club and hold mock weddings for those who have come out of their perversion.
As if they cared about free speech.
I assume recitation of Biblical versus would be "free speech" as well? Or "straight pride" rallies?
Will this simulated wedding include a clergy person? (Simulated or otherwise...) Wouldn't that be introducing religion into the school?
Then why can't the religious kids have "simulated" prayer groups?
If you want on/off the ping list see my profile page.
"One of the wonderful things about the Constitution of the United States is that it affords free speech for everyone regardless of whether that speech agrees with my personal views," Cordero said.
Even if I had an opinion I cannot say this is right or wrong," Dew said. "That way I don't offend people for what they believe."
