Yes, but I'd let the kiddies watch the principal "man up" and offer himself up to some light-in-the-loafer Mandingo warriors.

Yes. Absolutely! My kids would be taken out of school that same day I found out. Me and teacher and principle would have a word together in a dark alley.

What's ironic about this whole thing is that the very same people who have no problem forcing other people's children to watch two perverted men commit sodomy would scream BLOODY MURDER if their children were exposed to the Ten Commandments or *GASP* Jesus Christ.

This is getting so ridiculous.

If you're going to perform an anti-bullying play, do it against that -- bullying. The more you break people into groups, the more people start looking at others as "different". Which is supposedly what these people are against...

I don't want my kids exposed to either. I will let them choose if they want to get involved in religion. I survived organized religion

Yes I would be very upset. I get the anti-bullying thing but it should be done so that NO group/person should be bullied. It should not be done with only one or two groups in mind.

So it's okay to hold schools accountable for the effects of bullying but when the schools actually try to educate students about tolerance we get all up in arms?
OMG, I wonder what the consensus would be if they dared put a mixed race couple kissing on stage? Would the same people be swearing up and down the schools were promoting miscegenation, or have we managed to move past that yet?

Pray your innocent flower isn't there when some dudes start to moon each other for laughs or otherwise horsing around. And don't let them go to Europe.
I heard about this on the radio. The football team attended en masse and then walked out during the show in protest.

Meanwhile...

I guess this is just guys being guys?

P.S. No, OP, in the context it was presented, it wouldn't bother me.

Two men kissing is sodomy? Really?
Did you see that football game yesterday? I posted a link in my previous post.

Would it be newsworthy if it was a straight couple kissing? No. Get over it folks.
