Ethan McNamee arranged the rally as an independent class project.

He was concerned about the issue after hearing about anti-gay remarks on the playground and then learning about a same sex couple in his neighborhood that couldn't get married.

"Everybody is different in a good way," he said.

Ethan believes that if two people love each other that is the only issue to be considered.

Ethan's teacher, Kyle Kimmal, said he was careful to not impose his views on Ethan.

BS! He's grooming this kid...

I am happy the Russians beat the hell out of those fag activists. ‘Cause this is what will head down their way in the future if they don’t stop it now.

Seems like a great example of raising children as “buddies”, and not kids.

Political opinions aside,a nine year old should be learning from adults not teaching them.

More proof that statists, liberals, and homosexuals have no problem abusing children to promote their agenda.

Liberal viewpoints can not stand the scrutiny of intelligent, adult discourse. That is why they use children and victims to promote their agenda.

Sure. An 8 YO thunk this up all by himself will be riding his bike down to manage the event.

Well the line in the movie referred to the fact that the kid’s mother wasn’t married, and if she wasn’t married the boy would grow up gay. The point is, this boy has been influenced to the point that he will most likely turn out gay as well.

“Ethan’s mom, Tracy Edwards... “It’s a big part of our lives and we have a lot of diverse friends.”... timing of the rally to the release of the California Supreme Court’s decision on Prop 8... He’s been following the issue with help from the internet and Mr. Kimmal.”

Sure, teacher isn’t imposing his views yet the rally permit is in teacher’s name.

I think this might put the question to rest.

Your guess as to the titles they’ll be reviewing.

And teacher is apparently a big voice in the teacher’s union. A search on him will answer a lot.
