In the bible belt. -_-
As you can guess, being gay isn't really accepted around here and is publicly disapproved and made fun of.
I hear Austin is pretty weird.
Denton doesn't seem to be bad about it.
Quote:Although there might just be hope because there are a few freethinkers among the lot. Out of these people we have come up with the idea to show gay pride off on Monday all through the school day and sorta rub it in the faces of these homophobic and ignorant people.
'We'?
'Sorta'?
Quote:Any ideas of what we can do?
We are open to any ideas just as long as its peaceful.
You can die. Death is an easily achieved natural stasis... in a sense. Most peaceful thing I can think of.

How quickly they forget.

I guess the least cool thing to be in any highschool anywhere is gay.
Try having downs syndrome... perspective.
Being on fire is also right up there among the 'least cool things to be'.
Quote:I am actualy pritty certain that no other students are as viciously bullied and mistreaded as those who are openly gay.
And that's exactly why you should stop being so sure of things

Of the many forms of debate, the only real one is some non-specified form of debate absent several tools of debate. Also, pictures are no longer worth a thousand words, and humans have disbecome beings of both imagery and imagination.
Yup, you're absolutely supposed to use sarcasm and snarky humor, Chad.... after all: how else could we gauge how smart you are?

Good ideas deserve to be repeated, restated, and mugged in the streets for their lunch money

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
