Although I fully support GSA's I seriously doubt anything useful will come out of these things.

My experience with gay people and gay organizations is they can't organize a sock draw with 1 pair of socks.

Oh those were just links to news articles on this subject and links to related threads.

Naturally you aren't keen on them. No one will give you their AIM address, no matter how many times you put out a general plea.

Praiz!

They already have.

What the heck does "Praiz!" mean ?! Can you speak English ?

Daniel P from Long Island and I chat sometimes or email.

Yet he still regularly asks for people's AIM in threads, including those of posters who represent themselves as 13 year olds.

You must have a lot of free time to so use it. Praiz!

Well all I can say is that I've never seen him request information from 13-year-olds.

Hey, EB, how old are you ?

I hope the courts order the individual adminstrators to pay the legal costs. The attempt to ban GSA's is so blatantly illegal, there is no way one can claim these administrators were acting in good faith in pursuit of official duties.

I agree.

The Equal Access Act is over 25 years old, signed by President Reagan. So it's not a "new" law or an unknown law.

The fact that school districts, who are SUPPOSED TO BE teaching about the First Amendment, frequently violate this federal law, and deny American citizens, i.e. students, their RIGHTS, is infuriating.

SUE THEM ALL !

Maybe the average taxpayer will finally do something when they see how much of their tax money is violated by these UN-American administrators, who constantly break the law.

No, it was all about prejudice, bias, hatred, bigotry, oppression, discrimination, gender discrimination, stereotyping, homophobia, and heterosexism. And they allowed violence to be perpetrated upon innocent students who are GLBT or perceived that way for years. They just looked the other way. I went to Nassau County schools. I personally saw how it was. It was a nightmare; probably equivalent to being in prison to a child.

And they also allowed bullying, intimidation, harassment, prejudice, bias, hatred, bigotry, oppression, discrimination, gender discrimination, stereotyping, homophobia, and heterosexism to be perpetrated upon innocent students who are GLBT or perceived that way. I forgot to mention the word intimidation in the list of things describing the school board.

I don't see why school board members haven't been prosecuted and/or lost their jobs and/or them personally being sued for I would think that they broke federal, state, and constitutional laws. Why do they still have their jobs?! Impeach Superintendent Dr. John L. Ruis!!

This should be in the Nassau County, Florida and Florida forums as well.

Nassau County, Florida rarely makes national headlines but they did with this ACLU case. Nassau County, Florida has numerous drug busts and sex crimes in their local news. There was an article one time talking about the numerous sex offenders in the county. Other controversial news here involves stuff likes passing ordinances, the teaching of evolution in school, gay rights issues, banning adult porn and adult stores and putting restrictions on bars and alcohol. The churches are also involved in a lot of things that go on in this county. I believe they also made national headlines with this case too:

Remember the famous Nassau County, Florida child porn case? Why did none of these articles appear on Topix? I've seen news of other sex offenses and crimes in Nassau mentioned on the local Topix forum boards of Nassau County, FL but this was huge and it didn't even make it to Topix. I'm shocked! Well here are the articles, read about this famous case that was said in some of the articles to be the biggest child porn case in Nassau County ever. I've heard others say the biggest in the state of Florida and others say the biggest kiddie porn case in the nation. I think it made CNN or national headlines, not positive on that though:

Yulee Topix must have some bugs in it or something because it kicks me off my account constantly. I stayed signed in (it keeps me signed in unless I opt to sign out which is the way it is supposed to be) all the time on the Gay/Lesbian Topix.
