Diversity seems to have become synonymous with gayness with a lot of people. I just don't see it as that. To me, it means respecting others' differences (yet striving for common purposes), but not promoting anything to do with sexual overtones (which does not belong in a grade school classroom).

Diversity is another word the left has redefined. Once upon a time, it meant variety. Now it only encompasses one variety - the militant and offensively weird.

The desireable kind of diversity isn't perverts who happen to be gay parading around in freakish costumes groping each other, La Raza demanding the return of the Southwest to Mexico, or inner city drug dealers singing about carjacking and killing police. It's people of all backgrounds, physical abilities, and stations in life with a thousand different perspectives on the small stuff but who stand with each other sight unseen when a real trial comes along to any of them.

That doesn't need to be propagandized onto school kids to get any support, because noone disagrees with it in the first place. It doesn't even need to be called diversity, because a better word for it is America.

Much better put than I could ever hope to do:). Thanks.
