Bill Dunn |
Stacey Campfield |
And these two wingnuts are serious.
The bill says, in part: “No public elementary or middle school shall provide any instruction or material that discusses sexual orientation other than heterosexuality.”
Yup, if they get there way, gay won't exist until you reach high school.
Ben Byers, of the Tennessee Equality Project: “The Don’t Say Gay bill raises all kinds of issues about anti-gay bias, free speech and government overreach. It limits what teachers and students are able to discuss in the classroom. It means they can’t talk about gay issues or sexuality even with students who may be gay or have gay family.”
With all that's going on this country, from the economy, to the Wisconsin protests, to the crises in Egypt and Libya, and throughout the Middle East, with global warming, and environmental issues, unemployment, the cost of gas, this is all that these two ashats, Campfield and Dunn, can think to do?
With wingnuts like these two--and oh so many others--is it any wonder that the republican party is beginning to look like racists and homophobes and anti-middle class zealots?

ReplyDeletethe economy is crumbling, but hey, but lets focus on the gays and it will all get better
ReplyDeleteFor the first time in 40 years there is a Republican majority in the TN state legislature. See what happens? This shit. They're also trying to do the same things WI is to teachers and unions. I hope the bastards all lose to Dems next time because of this crap.
ReplyDeleteAs Rome is crumbling around them, that's all they can think about? How to put the smack down on glbt?
ReplyDeleteI'm thankful for people who are willing to speak up about the gay agenda. These politians who are working to keep moral issues a priority, deserve our praise instead of this dirt I have read.
ReplyDeleteWake up people! Our youth of today are being destroyed by the homosexual agenda! This lifestyle is being pushed into our public schools and universities like a raging fire! This is the "crumbling" of our society!
I would just like to say that you are really throwing around alot of mud with your name-calling. In addition, you are taking everything Mr. Campbell says out of context.
ReplyDeleteHe says that controversial issues like this should be dealt with "in the home"--not nonexistent "until high school" as you put it.
And as Campbell also said: the gays he has had "civil" conversations with about the bill agree with him. As he also described to them (not direct quotation): how would you feel if a teacher was allowed to say that homosexuality is evil or an abomination? This bill would prevent that as well.
So, really, this bill IS neutral. It helps both sides by keeping such controversial and personal issues out of the school classroom.
Plus, now you know how Christians feel when they try to discuss Creation or a Young Earth instead of evolution in the classroom. I don't see you standing up for that kind of equality; oh wait, that's probably because it doesn't contrast what YOU yourself believe right?
And to everyone who thinks this issue isn't somehow tied to our failing economy. . .Have you ever thought that maybe the Bible is right, and that because our nation blatantly goes against God's Word--about moral issues like abortion, homosexuality, etc.--that this is the reason our country is plummeting into massive chaos?
This is by the same Anonymous as before. . .It TN Senator Stacey Campfield--not Campbell. I apologize.
