It's retaliation to idiocy. Sure, idiots retaliating to idiots, but who can blame the idiots for retaliating for idiots.

Plus, they're idiots in more way than one. God says in the bible not to hate the sinner, but to hate the sin, so doing this is basically sending a middle finger to the big man. GG.

Unreal. The level of hatred that still exists is incredible to me. I'll never understand why orientation is such a huge deal to so many people. I thought younger generations were finally understanding how idiotic everyone has always been about the issue, but apparently not.

School officials have been mostly tight-lipped about the incident, but McGuffey High School Superintendent Erica Kolat released a statement to local station WPXI, noting that "allegations of harassment were brought to the attention of our administration."

"We resolve to ensure that all children can grow and learn in a safe, supportive environment free from discrimination," she noted.


Yeah . . . Sure . . .

This is like that Governor in Indianna that claimed "I didn't even realize this bill I wrote was literally designed to discriminate". -_- . . . They let it go on then act like perfect little angels when they get bashed by the media. If you are going to discriminate against a group OWN UP TO IT. By pansying out you just make yourself look even more pathetic, since obviously your own ideals that led you to said discrimination were so fragile that a few articles that will be forgotten in a day were enough to change your views entirely. And you might be asking why I am labeling the administration as being discriminatory, after all, it wasn't their faults. This kind of stuff doesn't just happen for an entire day without teacher's noticing, the fact it took until the end of the day to realize what happened clearly shows many just flat out didn't give a shit. If you don't give a shit, then don't give a shit, that's all I gotta say.

How come the liberal America is full of cases like this while it's rare to hear things like this in the "conservative" Europe?
(seriously, I've been wondering about it)

OT: So, the staff organizes an event like this, then,
"We resolve to ensure that all children can grow and learn in a safe, supportive environment free from discrimination," she noted.

they think all the bullied students will go back like nothing happened? Like it was not their schoolmates that harassed them?

On the contrary, retarded commenters saying it's their fate that turned them homophobes. Yeah, blame the faith itself, not like, the parents that didn't teach their kids to respect everyone. I just love how all these insightful and smart american commenters judge religious people and religion altogether, based on things happening in the US. Sure, if it happens in America, it must be the same in Europe! No, it must be the same everywhere! Religious people supporting gays don't even exist, it's just a lie by the bigots!
And before someone says, "the religion itself supports homophobia", that's not true. You are supposed to love everyone, regardless of sex, and that's the truth. If some bigots turn things around and start saying "we don't like gays because that's what our religion tells us", that's just to cover up their hatred.

I'm amazed that the school even allowed this to happen for more than five minutes. That is not a safe, supportive environment, that's an environment that's allowing people to openly attack others based on sexuality, the deepest part of yourself. That's cruel.
I think a bunch of people should be fired.
And someone earlier said,

Majority of religious people in the US are okay with homosexuality. Way to bash others for generalizing using a generalization.

what? i don't see any idiocy in having an anti-bullying day.

Not an anti-bullying day. A day of silence for LGBT. Why? It's pretty fucking stupid in my opinion. The second you start singling out groups saying that you should stop "bullying" them is the second you fuck up big time. I understand anti-bullying campaigns, they're not very effective but they do enough, I suppose. But when you start saying "stop being rude to the gays" or "stop being so rude to blacks", someones going to be offended. What if they were bullied by someone who was gay or black? They're going to be offended, because your basically saying they have to be nice to and respect someone they hate, which probably led to this.

This children are stupid, believe me, but when a school tells you you have to respect someone you may not like, something is screwed up. I myself wouldn't go to such lengths, but I'd be pretty pissed if something like that happened at my school, as I am both a catholic and have been previously bullied by a classmate who identified as gay. Sure, I won't do something as rude or rash as what they'd do, but I'd probably complain to the school about the actual importance of such a specific day.

TL;DR I understand anti-bullying campaigns, but when you target them at a certain group of people, you tear schools apart. It makes children feel like they're not allowed to have a dislike for that group, especially if they DO have a dislike or even hate of someone belonging to it. It also makes children of that group think they're somehow targeted, making them more paranoid and prone to mistrust. Bullying campaigns are already ineffective enough, but to do something so stupid as to target it towards a certain group is a mistake. It'll only generally make everything worse for everyone involved.

Well, they have gay parades and shit all over so why not this.
If people want to waste their time standing around with billboards and chanting slogans then let them, no sense discriminating between two different kinds of idiocy.

Uh, maybe it's because one of them just involves raising awareness about bullying while the other actually instigates harassment? It's fine to express whatever one thinks, but when it leads to violence then that is when everyone needs to quit. You really expect shit like Anti-Gay Day to end peacefully? No, it can't. Movements like these are always fueled by hate and nothing expresses hate better than violence and harassment.

As far as I'm concerned, this is perfectly fine as long as nobody's being targeted or victimized. Freedom of speech and all.

People are really intolerant of intolerance, and they feel self-righteous and justified while they slam other people's views. Kinda funny to me lol.

It is funny because people really did get targeted and victimized not to mention physical. That is, if you actually read the article.

BTW, I'm all for free speech and whatnot, but let's be logical about this.

Bullying in schools is a very real thing, it has affected numerous of students for decades.

This shit simply doesn't belong IN school....they want to do this elsewhere....fine by me.

But if they are actively being hostile towards a group of students, the administration has to come in and regulate.

Western Teenagers are already the scour of this planet, blood-sucking horrible creatures that only know how to do stupid shit and then want a pass for being the retards they are...I've got no problems coming down on them.

Until they are 18, they still MUST obey an authority figure....afterwards let them wander society on their own.

I guess it's all right in my book to wear a "God Hates Fags" shirt, I mean, that's just freedom of expression right there. No harm in that, only those who are offended will be offended. That is where free speech is protected.

I'm not sure if I like the organized shit that went on though. That's just obstruction of administration if it's not in their agenda. If an administration enforces such things, why violate it? The church shouldn't have any say in public education at all either. Church and state aren't a thing together, this isn't Medieval Times.

I know I wasn't raised to do either though. I come from a far more conservative family as it is than most Western teens with crappy parents who don't raise them right.

And here is even more damning evidence:

"Johnson said some of the students uploaded Bible verses to Instagram and tagged out gay classmates."

Gotta love christians man....especially AMERICAN Christians.

This is exactly what Jesus would do if here were around today....in fact Jesus would've gotten himself a gay kid or two and personally shoved him into a fucking locker!

I'm Curious, doesn't America have anti discrimination laws? If someone were to wear something like that in my country, there would be at least a huge outcry.

As for the news, that's pretty fucking sick. I don't get why people have to hate so much. Being anti-gay is one thing, but harming students who identify as LGBT is a whole other thing. Damn, I hope those brats realize at some point in their life that what they did is bad.

If you're going to shove polticial activism like Day of silence down people's throats or say making white children wear wristbands to remind them of privilege (yes that shit happens in murrica) you're going to provoke angry and possibly regrettable responses. Highschool classrooms are not the place for this kind of promotion or indeed any kind of ideological warfare regardless of the intent behind it. School teachers and admin are too often the product of their own indoctrination at university and so the ugly cycle passes from one generation to the next. Parents have the right to demand better for the education they (usually) pay for their kids to have.

Plus Huffpo is skewed crypto-communist bullshit at the best of times.

Given that not all "commentators judging religious people" were American (which, given the demographics of this site still wouldn't be saying a whole lot) it seems odd to single out ONLY American commentators. Furthermore, you do imply that Americans see religious people as being inherently intolerant of homosexuals based solely off of those they see around them, which would further imply the notion that those in America who are religious are intolerant. But the fact is that most religious people in America are not intolerant, and the vast majority of people in America are religious (although the religion does vary), seems to make the notion silly at best. So if your statement was not generalizing Americans as being people who generalize religious philosophies, then what were you saying? It seems no point was made, or rather, you adding "American" to the sentence made no sense. It had nothing to do with anything you said if this was not your original purpose.

I would have guessed if they commented on an article about the US, and they talk about it like they are American, then they are in fact Americans. And I never said anything about religious people in America. All I was trying to say is that the *very likely* American commenters all said that it's the religion's fault and they talked like it happens everywhere, not just in the US.
