So let me understand your position. It sounds to me like because this was voluntary there is no victim here....

Okay what if the schools held siminars on Russian roulet? Voluntary of course. You see Homosexual behavior is one of the most dangerous acts one can participate in. Now is not this school liable for promoting a behavior that can been seen as dangerous? ( Hiv/ AIDs)?

Here's the deal: I don't know what the content of this thing was. It's not explained in the article. I don't know how many kids attended, either. There are homosexual teenagers. There are problems between these kids and some of the other kids at schools. That I'm sure of. This is supposed to be some sort of exercise in teaching tolerance.

Without having been at the thing, I have no idea of the content of the discussions.

This mother, who actually pulled her kids out of school that day, even though they wouldn't have been required to attend these events, was able to attend. It was when she began to videotape that she was told to stop. Frankly, I wouldn't want some random parent videotaping my kids, either, whatever the situation.

She could have stayed and seen what went on during the sessions. Since she is opposed to the whole thing, I'd imagine that would have been a good idea for her to stay.

So, essentially, I don't have enough information here.

Well YES they should be, and thats why they DON"T want it taped. They do not want the general public to know what is really going on in these schools. Saying you can't film students without psrents permission, while true, is a convenient excuse, and a fall back on cop out
