The lawsuit of a former Colorado high school assistant principal is moving forward after he alleged he was discriminated against for his "religious comments" about a school production of The Laramie Project.

Corey McNellis filed the lawsuit in 2022 over his firing two years prior, which he claimed occurred after an email exchange between himself and other faculty at the school in Douglas County in which he attempted to offer "a Christian perspective" on the theater department's staging of the play. McNellis said in the emails that he disagreed with the production as a Christian, according to Reuters, which he alleged was used as grounds by school officials for his suspension and eventual firing.

Is it anything other than explicitly clear that even mild criticism of the homosexual narrative is not to be tolerated?

FWIW, The Laramie Project is about combat against homophobia.

I just love how the globohomo leftists twist language & meanings to suit their ends...

F'rinstance, I posit that homos are the ones who are really "phobic".

Why? Because they insist on being called "gay". They shy away from the correct descriptor: homosexual.

And as anyone who knows homosexuals, they are anything but gay.

“Homophobia” originally was applied by psychologists to people with same sex attraction who did not like having same sex attraction. Most people don’t know this.

It was instead turned into a bludgeon, the worse thing you could hang around someone’s neck. That leftism for you.

they insist on being called “gay”.

And yet, if you use it as a derisive descriptor ("that's so gay") then you are in trouble.

Lol yep, that’s the truth. In the 80’s, our school used to put down for their “likes and dislikes” in the yearbooks “dislikes: gays, fags, queers” etc- but they started clamping down on “derogative rhetoric”, so the kids started putting down “fruits, weirdos, pooftahs” etc- which worked until the higher ups discovered what they were doing.

Matthew Shephard was killed in a botched drug deal. Not because he was a degenerate homosexual. At the murder trial, evidence of anti-gay sentiment was not even introduced.

Yes, it was not introduced because there is good evidence available that at least one of the killers was Shepard's sometimes homosexual lover. Shepard was familiar with these men, and it was purely a drug deal gone bad. Police have confirmed this, but the truth couldn't overcome the contrived narrative.
