#1 Can I call them queer? They call themselves that, even on primetime TV.

Eh. They can take the pain of a penis in the ass but they can't take the "horrifying abuse" of being called a fruit.

Certainly a skinny Pollack like me who got beat up more than once should have a reciprocal case against my grade school and junior high school. Oh the horror.

#2 Is it OK to call the school Board members a buncha faggots?

#3 The ACLU said the sensitivity training program – required for all district administrators, teachers, campus monitors, custodians, school safety officers and bus drivers – should become a national model for "schools everywhere that care about protecting their students from harassment."

Nothing like forced sensitivity training to remedy a perceived "problem".

#4 Sarge, sorry that you were born to early.

The obese (weight challenged) will soon be another victim group looking for their spoils.

However, on a side note, the article tells nothing about the kind of abuse these students received and what actions/inactions the teachers and administrators took.

More info would be better for our peanut gallery to comment further.

#5 I have big ears. How much do I have coming? Do you think they will notice me in eighth grade? I can dye the gray out and continue to use poor grammar and ridiculous spelling.

#6 You sued your school because someone called you names and hurt your feelings?

That's a pretty gay thing to do.

#7 CS, wasn't there a report the other day from your area about a kid who wrote an article in the school paper regarding the illegal aliens problem in CA?
For voicing his views, this kid was the target of school thugs, but the school abolutely refused to protect him. This was more than just name calling.

So it seems conservative kids can't be victims.

#8 Sorry for not including the unbiased ACLU press release: http://www.aclunc.org/pressrel/980421-students.html Yes it’s pretty much about name calling. On to my earlier point. At least they could have hidden their sexual preference and avoid the taunting. I could not color my hair or lose enough weight to ever make a difference in the name calling. SUCK IT UP! That’s Life.

#9 Verbal abuse? Maybe the "non-breeders" should remember the old sticks & stones nursery rhyme. As far as physical abuse goes; I'm pretty sure everyone of us on R-burg has had to stick up to a bully(s) at one time or another. I had my share of 'punch-ups' as a chunky pre-teen on the playground. I didn't win all of them but I made it not worth their while to mess w/me. Bottomline; I got tougher as a result, the bullies left me alone, and I found the will to lose the weight. Suck it up pansies. This is typical 9th circus. Maybe these kids need to learn the art of "black eye from the straight guy".

#10 We need to cut out this kind of crap in order to concentrate on the WoT. I put forth the motion that we declare war on the ACLU and 80% of our nation's overpaid, underworked trial lawyers. All in favor pick up your weapon of choice at your local Sears, Penneys, WalMart, or Costco store.

#11 I got picked on because I was so much smarter and better looking than everyone else, and I got all the girls. Where do I pick up my check ?

#12 It's taken me a long time to actually admit that I was that bully. Soooooooo!!!!
sensitivity training program
Just another word for mind kontrol.
First they tell you what not to think or say, then they fill that space with the things you're only supposed to say and think according to them
