The last discussion on this topic was pulled by the moderators because of personal attacks. My advice: do not feed the leftist trolls that wish to silence the message that David Parker delivers. Rather than join in with personal attacks and get the topic pulled it is far better to relax and patiently let any visiting trolls get themselves eventually zotted.
Regardless the tangential spins and whining coming from the left -here is what specifically underlies the continuing conflict -- the taxpayer subsidized homosexual propaganda campaign that David Parker opposes and is up against -what his federal lawsuit filed on April 27, 2006 against the school and the administrators is all about

Thanks for the reminder. I know you had asked last time what Mr. Parker had said that wasn't true. I had previously posted this to you in response to your earlier question. The thread is listed below. I do have some others if you would like to see them also. This is the message that Mr. Parker delivers.:
According to Mr. Parker, school authorities determined from an investigation into the assault that the beating was indeed planned and premeditated.
Mr. Parker described the incident at the school saying:
"During the recess period, a group of 8-10 kids suddenly surrounded Jacob and grabbed him. He was taken around the corner of the school building out of sight of the patrolling aides, with the taunting and encouragement of other kids. Jacob was then positioned against the wall for what appeared to be a well planned and coordinated assault.”
According to Parker, his son related that one student in particular performed the actual physical assault while, “many children stood, watched silently, and did nothing as the beating commenced.” "The group of kids surrounded Jacob and he was beaten and punched. Then, as he fell to the ground, another child was heard saying to the group of children, 'Now you all can finish him off,' and as he was down on his hands and knees, the beating continued on his back. Then, fortunately, one little girl ran to contact the oblivious playground aides to stop it.
"Four of the attackers were from Jacob's first-grade class; the others were from other classes at Estabrook.
"The teachers' aide apparently determined that since she could not see external bleeding, and since Jacob apparently was not hit in the face, she did not send him to she school nurse." The family was immediately notified of the incident.
Speaking to LifeSiteNews, Parker speculated that the cause of the attack is most likely what he called “displaced aggression.” “If children hear venomous things from their parents, the children do internalize this,” he said. "We also know that activist lesbian mothers and vehement anti-David Parker parents are spewing hateful, inflaming rhetoric, and probably also to their young children".
This was given to lifesite.net. It is very close to the version he gave to mass resistance too, though that one was far worse, and one he received attribution also. I think the kids especially would appreciate it if he reconsidered this. If he does, I would have a lot more respect for him, even after last year. But I think it's gone too far now for him to retract anything. Hopefully in the future he'll realize how inflamatory these things can be, especially where the kids are concerned.
Look at the reaction here when those stories first came out. People were ready for war. And I can understand it. Yes, sometimes a news site will elaborate. But all the stories from the "conservative" sites were pretty much the same, and David Parker gave the interviews. He now needs to come forward and either confirm or deny. He knows for sure whether it was just a friend of Jacob's. A lot of people fully support what he is doing, and he owes them the truth and nothing but.

I am stunned that the Parker attorney would tell a completely different story than Mr. Parker. Why do you suppose that is? I also notice that Mass Resistance has taken the link to its original story completely off it's site and rewrote it. Strange, huh?
