Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Thursday, March 11, 2010

Constance McMillen, an 18-year-old senior at Itawamba Agricultural High School in Fulton, said Wednesday the school board's decision to cancel the school prom rather than allow her to attend with her girlfriend is retaliation.

McMillen and the American Civil Liberties Union of Mississippi gave the district until Wednesday to drop its objections to same-sex dates. The school board responded with a statement canceling the prom and suggesting a private group host an independent prom instead.

I don't really understand the schools stance on this one.

I think part of the problem might be the outward acknowledgment that it was a homosexual couple and they were coming together for that purpose.

I remember girls being able to go to Prom with other girls when I was in school, and it was a non issue, although it wasn't claimed to be specifically for a homosexual reason, everyone knew which girls were homosexuals and that they were going for that reason.

I am not sure why the limitations.

I know people won't like t his, however there is the possibility that they could have gone and still had a great time together if they would have found a male homosexual couple, gone each with one of the male homosexuals and then coupled up when they got to the Prom. I don't think either party would have had a problem with that (in terms of the male and female homosexual couples) and it would have been too late to do anything on the schools part at that point. I mean girls dance with other girls all the time.

I know it is not the ideal situation, but it was a way around this. Not saying the cancellation was the homosexual couples fault.

(You can't call the Lesbians because the real Lesbians on the isle of Lesbos will get offended over that, as they were called Lesbians first and are mostly heterosexuals.

Wow, Mississipi is one backwards-assed fuckstain of a place.

A hearty spuddish FU to the asswipes who made this stupid move.

And a tip of me spuddish chapeau to the good people at the ACLU fer fighting this insanity.

Be Well.
