A "safe schools" non-harassment program ... Protects dangerous behavior and silences those who believe homosexuality is wrong

Actually, it protects gay kids from being beaten by other students. Bullying can be very harsh in some schools for any child--imagine how awful it could be for a little gay kid? Nobody should have to take beatings. Nobody should have to put up with extreme amounts of verbal abuse, which can drive gay kids to suicide.

I agree that no one should have to put up with abuse.

the error in your post is that there is no such thing as a 'gay' kid. Homosexuality is not an inherent characteristic. It is a curable mental disease. Categorizing kids as 'gay' is the same as categoring them as kleptomaniacs. Until we have kleptomaniac safe-rooms in our schools we should not have safe rooms for any disease.

I think kids are driven to suicide after having a series of same-sex attraction thoughts or activities because they were told "you're gay and you can't change" far more than because they were bullied.

I was bullied relentlessly through much of my school years and I am alive and well. Of course if some helpful counselor had convinced me that I was trapped in a disgusting, abnormal life and told me that I had no hope to ever change it or to achieve the things that are really important (such as a wife and children) then I probably would have suicided too.

You're buying into the "gay identity" falsehood. As if a little kid somehow KNOWS that he is attracted to the same sex. Heck, little boys usually don't like hanging around with little girls anyway! As well as little girls ditto. It's normal for little kids to play with others of the same sex and that has absolutely nothing to do with SSAD - Same Sex Attraction Disorder. It's accepted by all reasonable people that sexual attraction to the same sex is a disorder, not inherent, usually if not always caused by a disturbed relationship with parents and/or broken home, as well as childhood molestation. Plus it's often correctable.

Additionally, the figures of the percentages of homosexuals is under or around 2%, and that's for adults.

What I wonder is why you are parroting the crap that the "gay" activists spout.
