"The resolution passed says the military's ban on openly gay soldiers violates the school district's equal rights policy for gays"

Leave it to Pelosiland to say Gay groups are fully legit but military support groups aren't


Your Thoughts?

Can a straight kid join the gay club?

Can't gay people have just one City? Just one???? SF is ran by Gays, it's the gayest city in the friggin Globe. I live in the Bay Area so I know. Let them have their one City in America. Who cares what Laws they have there. If a Kid wants to go to Military School then there's lots of Neigboring cities that can accomadate the G.I!

The groups are strictly made for gays who want to come out and be proud.

So a straight kid might not fit to well in them.

Redefine91:

Then there ought to be a military club, as clearly there is exclusion in the gay club.

[Ganymede]

Plus there's cities in America that have Sodomy laws! There's schools that don't allow "hip-hop" style clothes. There's schools that don't allow "heavy metal/rocker" attire. There's schools that require a uniform etc. So who cares of the Military can't go to "one" school.

[phonetic]

I can see some cadets raiding the gay club and roughing some people up.

What a bunch of wankers. Really.

A rule that's been in place for ages and all of a sudden they decide to take it out on kids? That's unfair.

[Redefine91]

Exactly. But seeing as how the military has a system unfair to gays then it can't be allowed in school.


So lets ban the football team because they few gays who come out in locker rooms are made fun of or outcasted.

Lets ban Hockey teams because the NHL occasionally drop the gloves and beat eachother up. and we don't want to promote violence.

Hell, lets ban the debate team because of these guys

Being a Bay Area native I can honestly say Gays are inclusive. To tell you the truth, from my experience, Gay guys love trying to turn a "Straight Guy" gay! That's the ultimate accomplishment for them.

There's no rule in football that says no fags.
There is in the military.

Of course not. It's a club for gays.
But there's no rule that says a straight kid may not join.
I knew plenty of kids in highschool that joined gay clubs.
In fact, the school wouldn't allow a club that only allowed gays in it.
And I bet there are even women(!) in the gay club!

[Redefine91]

the military has the rule specifically in writing.

but there are plenty of clubs and institutions that have unwritten laws about gays not being allowed in.

[phonetic]

I thought you could get gay women too

Institutionalized bigotry is a bit different than unwritten social codes.

Ganymede:

They have tried to "convert" you?

[Athelwulf]

Exactly. But seeing as how the military has a system unfair to gays then it can't be allowed in school.

So you see a similarity between making a statutory system that's unfair to gays (as in the military) and not making a statutory system that's unfair to gays (as in the NHL and high-school football)?

And as for unwritten "rules", Roman said it pretty well:

Institutionalized bigotry is a bit different than unwritten social codes.

I see major sports at the higher levels treating gays horribly and in doing so making a statement saying "gays unwelcome."

I'm all for having a gay club. Let them be proud. But telling a military group they can't go on is absurd.

What does your link have to do with discrimination against gays in college athletics?

"While some may try to diminish the role of homosexuality in hazing, it can't be ignored. Badjocks.com says that the most common reported hazing incident among high school students is sodomy with fingers or other objects. "
