You might live where this is the norm, but for me, this display of the most disgusting facets of humanity is yet another reason for the day I inevitably go postal with an uzi.

Also, I like to make fun of idiots.


Edit: Maybe she's saying that retards choose to be retarded

Of all the... It really is a shame that there are still people today who think like this.

"We want to make the public see that we love the homosexuals, but we don't think it's right nor should it be accepted," said a local student.

Sounds to me like you're contradicting yourself there. How can you love them, but what to shun them at the same time?If you really did love them, there are better ways to show it.

Diana Medley is a special education teacher in town. She doesn't believe anyone is born gay.

"I believe that it was life circumstances and they chose to be that way; God created everyone equal," said Medley.

What the... Who the hell would willing choose to be ridiculed? With all the crap we people in the GLBT community have to put up with, why does anyone still think it is a choice? If I had a choice, I would most likely choose to be part of the majority group. But then I would probably just feel depressed from repressing my true self just for the sake of how others view me.

Anyways, I don't know why these people think the prom will automatically be ruined if gays are included. It's not like anyone is forcing them to hang out with them the entire night. All they need to do is just mind their own business and not worry who other people are dancing with.

"Love them as a person. You don't have to love what they do, because the gays may not love all the mistakes you make," said Davis.

"Homosexual students come to me with their problems, and I don't agree with them, but I care about them. It's the same thing with my special needs kids, I think God puts everyone in our lives for a reason,"

So being gay means to be mistaken and retarded?

I disagree very much with a lot of what's being said in that article. It must be hard for homosexuals to live in places where they are discriminated like this. At least, I'm glad that this kind of discrimination doesn't exist where I live.

You know, I never understood how anyone could believe anyone chooses to be gay.  I know I didn't choose to be straight. Somehow I always knew it was my destiny to marry a boy.

I think the "born/choose" argument has a lot of fuzzy ground, but also: It only really matters if you think homosexuality needs a defense/excuse.

But guys, we're missing the most important issue: what music would they play at the gay prom?  (/sarcasm)

Seriously though, we need more gay pop songs.  Or gender neutral.  What's on the radio is just so heteronormative, it's annoying, and this isn't really the sort of thing that usually bugs me.

So you are saying that being gay is the same as being autistic which I'm diagnose with; If i'm Gay and Retarded does that mean I have no real purpose in life.

That's what she's saying. It's better to laugh that be offended, though. Being offended could mean you're taking her seriously, and she doesn't deserve that

I hope the gay prom has a drag show! I love drag queens

Of she deserve, her perspective of Homosexuality is awful, the sh*t she said about Homosexual and Autistic people being same and having no purpose in life made it the most offense post from my perspective. It represent everything wrong with the religion these days in regards to homosexuality.
Plus it a shit article overall

The comments of Ms. Diana Medley, a supposed special education teacher, are disgraceful and not becoming of an educator. As a Christian, I find her using her position as a public figure to spread hate appalling. Often, kids who would come to her with their problems have no one else to turn to, and yet she treats them with utter disrespect. As history has shown us, segregation of differences has perpetuated hatred and malice and fixed nothing

That is it in a nut shell; state/gov. approved segregation is wrong. If you have to fund the state/gov., via taxes, you have rights to services and respect that the majority gets.  The warnings anginst the tyranny of the majority have never been more apt.

huzzah for Drag Queens. This reminds me that, I need to go to another Drag Brunch.

Also Tea Party? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTU2He2BIc0

"I just think the Republicans have a point.  If everyone in the world were gay, the human race would die out, you know?"

...

Someone actually said that to me, once.  Quite contemplatively and seriously.  I don't even.  It kind of makes my head feel squishy with stupid when I think about it too hard.

Why will no one tolerate my intolerance?

This is a point though. I mean, I don't particularly support intolerance. And I don't think the government should enforce their views on everyone (or anyone). But if you're going to be tolerant of people and allow freedom of expression and speech and all that, I believe you've got to make sure you extend it to the crazies as well (not that I think all Christians are crazy. I'd say many certainly aren't, and I'd say you can do some fun philosophical/theological stuff with Christianity if you're so inclined). I feel similarly regarding bans on tiny minority Nazi/Far Right parties in various European nations. I understand the logic behind banning them, but at the same time I feel it's problematically hypocritical to embrace political freedom so openly while denying it it to (an admittedly terrible) few.

This said, I agree that the "I'm persecuted because I'm Christian" thing can be funny in the US at times. Not because it occurring would be wrong, but because it occurs so rarely in an overwhelmingly Christian state.

Actually all of the above is the foundation for an absolutely unimpeachable rebuttal to Christian nationalists who mistake the erosion of their position of privilege for "persecution."

When someone who has a position of privilege tells me that their free speech is eroded because they can't call gay people faggots, I have a two word reply. When someone claims that there's a left-wing conspiracy to silence them, I have a two word reply. When a Christian authoritarian comes to me and claims that Christianity--or better yet, themself personally--is under siege or being persecuted in the United States, I have a two word reply:

Fred Phelps.

Fred Phelps, motherfucker. Fred Phelps walks free today. Fred Phelps' freedom of speech and freedom to worship in the United States has never been infringed. Fred Phelps does and says things so vile that the KKK have publicly disavowed him*, and yet every weekend he and his cohorts have taken their minivans to another one of their vile and shocking protests, making the news and twisting the knife. Every weekend. Fred Phelps believes in the Christian Bible so fervently that it drives him to do these things and say these things in the free worship of his religion, in the exercise of his Constitutionally-protected free speech. So when you look me in the eye and tell me that you are being persecuted for being Christian, or that your speech is not free, I ask you this: is your religion more twisted than that of Fred Phelps, are the things you say more unthinkably cruel and evil?

Because that's what you'd have to do to lose your freedom of religion and your freedom of speech. Fred Phelps has set the bar as low as it will go, and he walks free today.






(* This happened. The KKK, the right-wing racist white nationalist terror organization think Fred Phelps has gone too far. No joke.)
