[QUOTE=HeadshotDCS;28364274]Private schools, no. Public schools, yes.[/QUOTE] No, children and teenagers do not have the same rights as adults. They do not get to have basic human rights as adults.

Why does there need to be an alliance between gay and straight people?
[QUOTE=cqbcat;28367905]Why does there need to be an alliance between gay and straight people?[/QUOTE] To promote equality. [editline]1st March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Ruskie;28367079]'Land of the free' eh?[/QUOTE] There's an asterisk next to that though. It says 'at participating locations', which apparently Texas isn't a part of.
Jesus fuck, Texas. My high school had a gay-straight-alliance before I started going there, with NOBODY freaking out over it or defacing it, and I'm class of '06. That means you're OVER nine years less progressive or mature about this than suburban/rural inland, Southern California. Sure, Cali has always favored the Dems, but this is a horseshoe throw away from being a country-town. Just secede, Texas. Nobody wants you anyway. But before you do, give us Rooster Teeth; they're the ONE thing in your entire state that we give a shit about.

Corpus Christi is a shitty place, one of the more hickish in the area. Not to mention the great importance of Texas to the union. I mean really, the ignorance it takes to just say "herp derp secede" is astounding. e: And the fact that you picked out some internet group over, say, NASA. Idiot.
I grew up in Texas and there was only really homophobic shit against the flamboyantly gay dudes who never shut the fuck up about it. I knew a few guys that just kept it on the down-low and nobody gave a shit. [editline]1st March 2011[/editline] and I never really did any stuff like that anyway

We have a gay straight alliance here at the HS I go to in Florida too. :v:

The G-S Alliance is at my school too but honestly, it's an awful name. That club is for gay nerds anyway.
I saw this on the local news today, didn't expect it to be on Facepunch. I live really close to this city. I'm bi, and of course I think the superintendent is an idiot. Please don't think that all of Texas is like this, I hate it when people do. :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Swilly;28363400]How so? [editline]1st March 2011[/editline] Oh yes, because all straight people hate gays.[/QUOTE] I dont mean that, its just I find it kinda unrealistic to expect most straight men to join a club mainly tailored for gay people.
[QUOTE=DinoJesus;28370845]I dont mean that, its just I find it kinda unrealistic to expect most men to join a club mainly tailored for gay people.[/QUOTE] What about gay men They probably join it
We can't have them fags fagging up our stahs and stroips, this is 'MERCUH.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;28370888]What about gay men They probably join it[/QUOTE] Sorry, wrote it wrong, its fixed now.
[QUOTE=cqbcat;28367905]Why does there need to be an alliance between gay and straight people?[/QUOTE] because segregation is a terrible idea a wall exists in people's minds, straight and nonstraight alike, between those two groups. it leads to stupid statements and intolerance on both sides.
Those anti-gay people are acting like little boys with a club saying "No girls allowed". Everything they do are similar to what little kids do.

My city lool.
