Debating

Sorry I haven't been on in a while, but I have been really busy, what with school and things. I have something to discuss further with you that I talked about a little bit in one of my earlier posts: the gay-striaght alliance.

One of my friends at school got approval from our principal to start a gay-straight alliance at school. She wrote a letter to the school board explaining why we should have the club. We already have a teacher willing to be our sponsor, or to stay after school and help with it. We'll be learning about discrimination against gays and other things that have happened to them in the future. It would be a place for LGBTs (lesbian gay bi transexual) to come and seek support. We are trying to emphasize that it would not be a group about preaching our beliefs on others.

Now, I'm straight but I support gay rights. I didn't used to in the future, but I do now. Some kids in our school are saying that we won't be allowed to have the club, but they're wrong. This has happened to tons of other schools, when the school board didn't approve the club. The kids took them to court, and won...every single case.

Leaving you with these thoughts, I ask you to please comment me, tell me what you think, and wheter or not you support the idea. I'm trying to find support where and when I can, so the more people I get the more it might convince the school board that our club should be allowed. Thanks a BUNCH!
