The first amendment says we can say whatever the fuck we want (in theory). So can SOMEONE please tell me why Tennessee passed a bill today to make it illegal to say the word or discuss "gay" or "homosexual" in public schools? *groan*
This bill is a disgrace. It says that teachers aren't allowed to bring up any GLBT topic in grades before 9th. This means anywhere, not just IN class. It makes it illegal for a guidance counselor to help a struggling gay teen, and it makes it illegal for a gay teen to express any pain he or she or ze is feeling. I'm waiting to see the suicide rate in this state.
This is ridiculous and a mockery to all that America is for! *hidesBritishaccenttemporarily*
