Student Suspended for Saying Gay Is Wrong

Quote
FORT WORTH, Texas - A Fort Worth high school student was sent to the principal’s office earlier this week for telling another classmate he believes homosexuality is wrong.

Fourteen-year-old Dakota Ary spent most of the day Tuesday serving an in-school suspension. It was punishment for discussion in his German class at Fort Worth’s Western Hills High School.

“We were talking about religions in Germany. I said, ‘I’m a Christian. I think being a homosexual is wrong,’” he said. “It wasn’t directed to anyone except my friend who was sitting behind me. I guess [the teacher] heard me. He started yelling. He told me he was going to write me an infraction and send me to the office.” >>>

“At first I was in disbelief. My son is on the honor roll with great grades. I don’t have any problems out of him,” Holly Pope said. >>>

“He was stating an opinion. He has a right to do that. They punished him for it,” she said.

Apparently many teachers today go through indoctrination factories before they can get their teacher's certification. Principals are teachers who spent even more time in the indoctrination factories to get the credentials to become principals.

So what happens when some moslem kid says that in islam homosexuality is wrong? Suspension - or does it only apply when having Christian beliefs?

There's more to it than is stated "OR" the unemployment rolls should go up by a few numbers.

I suppose there is a bit more ... on the radio the other day, the mother reported that the teacher had recently posted a picture on the wall of two males kissing.

It isn't all that surprising that someone standing for godly precepts of right and wrong at public school in 2011 would be suspended. God was expelled in 1963.

Oh yeah...the teacher can express his opinion  and approval of immoral actions but the student isn't entitled to disagree.

I am so sick of the "offending" someone....
It seems to a double standard these days, when it comes to these political correctness. I think the teacher was wrong sending him to the principal's office, the principal was wrong in giving him the suspension. This young man had a right to his opinion.
fwiw, regardless of how i feel about homosexuality, we are all entitled to our opinions, and we should be able to express our opinions without the hassle off "offending" or forced to be politically correct.

I don't sweat offending someone. If I get an attitude back, I tell him/her that if he/she doesn't like what I say, then not to listen. If they continue ranting, I tell them to get the f*** away from me.

While I don't believe being gay is necessarily "wrong" I think they went a bit too far in punishing him especially if it was a first offence.  In light that Islam is extremely homophobic, we should actually be defending gay rights.

Being a Muslim is a far worse sin than being gay.

What "gay rights" are you talking about?

"Rights" and "demands to accept alternate lifestyles" have become synonymous. The "right" to marry is not granted to heterosexuals, either. "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" is not a "right" to do anything out of those boundaries.

Small gripe here CG.  Nothing personal but it's something that hits me wrong.

We are not 'granted' rights.  We either have them or we don't.  Our Constitution and Bill of Rights simply protect certain rights.

It's a small thing but it makes people stop and think sometimes.

I'm referring to marriage equality, visitation rights in hospitals, adoption bans, etc.

Herein lies the problem with political correctness. Being guilty of thinking against the grain. Believing that doing so is an "offense".
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Marriage is NOT a right.

Hospital visitation is NOT a right.

Adoption is not a right.

exactly Rich t. This is when i get twitchy about things. NONE of the above is a right. The Bill of Rights are granted to every American Citizen, regardless of sexual orientation.

Unfortunately, because same sex marriages are not recognized in all 50 states, areas like medicare, ss, IRS wont accept those partnerships. Are these the " supposed rights" that the gay communities are pushing??

Now it's my turn to get a little twitchy...

The BoR grants no rights.  It acknowledges inherent rights, and restricts the federal government from stepping on those rights.

I know...   I'm picking at nits.

I don't know what "supposed rights" the gays are pushing for.  Every time I try to pin one down about it they go off on a tangent.

The biggest problem with the "gay rights" movement is that they do not want the same rights as everyone else, they want more. They want to shut down anyone and anything that they don't agree with. This agenda is being pushed by a small portion of an already small portion of the population. Nothing more than PC run amok.

Where do these RIGHTS things divided between that Phelps so called Church and the rights to protest against them stand.   Freedom of Speech, in other words don't tell a wounded person how to cry. [Only thing I can think of as an example, one can do so but is this taking away the rights of the wonded to self expression ?? ]

Can children wear shirts to school with a picture of an aborted baby on the back????

What happens when a Muslim kid comes to school with a picture of the burning twin towers on the back of their jacket??

How about a kid named Amy Hoer that has " I am a Hoer kid "on their shirt.

Little John Hooker  has a shirt with" all my family are Hookers."

I know a very nice family with the last name of GAY, what happens when they need a name tag WI their last name on it.

Now we are told that some of us have Sir Names that are are considered obscene by the DMV, no plate for you--- and  how about names that sound Jewish, Latino, Polish, Asian that are not of the ethnic denomination one belongs to.

We do have freedom of speech unless it, our name, our religion , our basic right to speak does not offend complete strangers.

Freedom, we in America  are free to move about the country with no problem unless we fly.  Freedom to defend ourselves against others if we live in the right states. NH is great--open carry no license needed.

Freedom to walk the streets of a city covered in bling and take the chance of being robbed or killed late at night.
Freedom to eat and drink as we wish in some states.
 Freedom to start a business as long as we have the money to pay for town taxes and pay off the Liquor Commission, the Zoning board, the Health Commission and the IRS rules and regulations.

We do not have the Right to drive a car, Farmers have little say with the Feds on what to plant in their fields.

We no longer have the right to grab a fishing pole and head out to the salt water rivers or sit on the dock of their own home and throw a line in the water without paying for a license to do so.  A paid license to go fishing in the ocean  !!!

OMG the Girl Scouts were banned from selling their cookies without a license in some towns.

The GAYS need to understand that we All are loosing our past Freedoms we have taken for granted.  So they want to get married, BFD, lots of luck to them,  one small freedom but they have no idea that they will loose just as many Freedoms as the rest of us.

They could be better off as single folks, once married there are few advantages, no kids to write off on the IRS,  they will not any longer be considered any kind of minority.  No minority grants from anyone for school or starting a business.

Gays had it made as a minority, now they marry and now cannot claim any special status as they have become just like any other married folk to the government.
