First it was a young lady who wanted to attend her senior prom and now it’s a young lady who just wanted to appear in her yearbook.

It started with Constance McMillen, an honor student from Mississippi who happens to be a lesbian, wanted to attend her senior prom with her date. Her school refused to allow her to attend and when the ACLU successfully sued the school they canceled the prom and held a secret prom to keep Constance away. Constance was rewarded by being invited to lead the NYC gay pride parade and was given a college scholarship by “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.”

Next, Ceara Sturgis , also an honor student from Mississippi who happens to be a lesbian, wanted to appear in her high school yearbook in a tuxedo. The school had no policy on what students could wear but the school refused to allow it. When Ceara received her yearbook, not only was her picture not included, but no reference to her was anywhere in the yearbook in spite of her being a star player on the school’s soccer team, a trumpet player in the school band, and an honor student. This is in spite of students who had dropped out or been arrested for drug use being included.

My daughter’s school is the exact opposite. They support the STRIDES club which promotes LGBT issues. They supported the students who participated in the day of silence. I am proud of my daughter for participating in the day of silence. I hope you will fight against schools that are anti-gay and fight to insure that all students are treated equally no matter what their sexual preference might be.

Update: The idiocy doesn’t seem to be isolated to Mississippi but seems to be running throughout the south. Parents in Booneville, North Carolina are planning to have a private prom so their kids aren’t contaminated by the gayness of Jordan Nixon in spite of the fact their kids go to school with Jordan five days a week. Jordan and his mother have been repeatedly told they are going to hell by the loving Christian community of Booneville.

Update #2: To finish on a humorous note… Ian Jolly, a blind man in Australia, was awarded $1,400 because a restaurant refused to allow him to bring in his guide dog. The waiter thought the man’s date said that they wanted to bring their gay dog into the Thai restaurant. Nudge, the guide dog, had no comment about the award but Mr. Jolly said he was pleased with the result.
