"Gay Friendly" High School may open in Chicago

Public school officials in Chicago, Illinois, are recommending approval of a "gay-friendly" high school because harassment and violence are causing gay students to skip class and drop out at alarming rates....

Sounds like a politically correct reason to start skipping class!!

Sounds like some administrative action is needed and maybe some charges need to be pressed more than anything. All people should be treated with with respect and decentcy.

Boohoo. If they'd quit bragging about it, they wouldn't have anything to worry about. Most of these kids wear their sexual orientation on their foreheads for all to see, then whine when others don't accept them.

Isn't this kinda like...segregation???

Why would they go backwards in time when we fought so hard to eliminate it?

I wonder if they would do that for the christian students. Maybe they should be allowed to pray and read their bibles. It's part of their "culture" and a lot of them were born into it.
