My response to her is simple....look bi*ch, public schools exist because they are funded by our tax dollars and therefore MUST be accountable to the people footing the bill. Contrary to her assertion, public schools don't belong to the liberal/homosexual/intolerant of our society.
I am heartened to see people taking legal action against perverse behavior that is condoned in public schools but would be considered contributing to the delinquency of a minor if it was done in a religion class, for example.
Perverted freaks do not have permission to expose to or indoctrinate children in their abhorrent, disgusting, amoral, animalistic lifestyle.
I doubt that my grandchild will ever set foot inside a public school until college, but I suggest the following plan of attack that I have broached with my daughter and her husband.
I will retain an attorney to draft a document stating clearly and comprehensively that any topics, presentations, outside speakers, forums, seminars etc. to which their child is to be subjected must be authorized by the parents of this minor child prior to involving this child in any of the above activities. The presentation of this notarized document will be preceeded by a complete examination of the curriculum planned for the year as well as the texts to be used. The document will conclude with a warning that legal action will be taken immediately against the staff, administration and all others involved should the prior review mandated by this document be violated. Notarized copies will be sent to the school board, principal, teachers' union president and state department of public instruction.
I will also encourage all other concerned parents to take similar steps and use this legal document as a template to recover control of our out-of-control public school system.

(holy cow....I DID it!!!)
Dewey, who reformed our education system to be what it is today, believed it's greatest value was in social engineering.
If the attitude of the woman from the ACLU were appropriate, then back in the 1970s when prayer was thrown out, the appropriate response would have been, "If non-Christians don't want to be exposed to this sort of thing they should home school or save their money and put their children in private school."
I'll bet if you took a poll the percentage of the population who objects to exposure to Same-sex Attraction Disorder (SAD) is far greater than the percentage who objects to mandatory prayer. So why should the larger group have to leave? Doesn't the majority rule?
Shalom.
