Then you are a horrible, horrible, parent. I feel sorry for both you and your child, advocating violence like that.

He should say, "Sorry, not interested" and move on with his life. Holy crap I can't believe you'd advocate violence against another child like that.

I think tolerance is good. Can you show me where they teach the same about Jews, blacks, Christians - or simply a broad discussion of tolerance? Does that course also include manners in public and instructions on how to not infringe on others because you don't agree? If not, then it appears to be an ideologically driven course. I admit that I haven't researched it, so if it's broad; I may agree with you.

The high school in my area does this, and they learn about all the different religions and ethnic groups during the coursework. It's a part of Global Studies.

The o OP piece is quite different from tloerance really. Tolerance is when you accept something you do not really approve of or like.

What does that have to do with the topic at hand?
It has everything to do with the topic. The schools are trying to tell boys and girls that homosexuality is normal and right. They want children to believe that there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. I am stating that my child knows that there is something wrong with it, so his natural response will be to beat the crap out of a boy who tries to come onto him.

Your son should do what anyone would do. Say "no thanks, I like girls"

your son should simply say, if he is straight, no thank you I am not interested. no he should not "beat the sh** out of the boy". no it is not natural for people to be repulsed by homosexuality. it is bigotry that should be repulsed. teaching tolerance of other people is the right way. you should never condone your sone beating the "sh**' out of anyone gay or not!

In the UK, many schools are adopting such a philosophy and the same is true in parts of the Bay area. I take issue with such teachings, because I don't believe children should be taught that same sex unions are natural and normal. The future doesn't look too bright for us.



Homosexual Indoctrination in UK Schools - it's happening now and teachers get paid a bonus for it! - YouTube
Why is that it is always highly unattractive nerdish females who are proponents of the gay thing. You rarely see attractive woman pushing the gay agenda...I guess they don't have too. I will repeat - and repel the fanatic thinking here - Let nature take it's course and leave the damned kids alone. BUT as DARWINIST...this is okay because if a young person is too stupid to figure out that this indoctrination is a lot of social engineering geared to control human beings- and they do not breed---good- cos we don't need more non- thinkers who cuddle up to the mindless herd.

That's simply wrong. There is no excuse for that at all. I'm a guy that grew up and had more than my share of fights. I've had another guy make an advance toward me on a few occasions and never considered that as a valid reason for violence. That's not my preference so I wasn't interested, but why would I be pushed to violence because someone expressed a fondness for me?

Yeah, it's much better if they try to encourage it instead.
