CA to teach gay history

[CaughtintheMiddle1990]

You do not understand a lot of things cause you are f....k up from soup to nuts. Plus, you do not listen.

I think what's fucked up is hating an entire country of people and equating being French with being gay. Well, maybe not fucked up, but ignorant at best.

Never understood the hate for the French. I mean they helped us in our revolution; even if it wasn't for "humanitarian reasons", they did still aid us; We've got the Statue of Liberty from them which still stands as the welcoming beacon to America and is one of the most iconic images of America; de Tocqueville's "Democracy in America" which I've seen people of all political affiliations quote, possibly one of the greatest tributes and examinations of our (early) country written. They have a pretty interesting culture and history themselves, and I'm sure anyone of European descent probably has a little French somewhere.

Fuck the fucking French.

What is more fucked up is you worrying about stupid shit like this rather than getting your head out of your ass and putting in motion advise that others have given to you on this board. You really are a dumb ass.

I could give a shit less about a bunch of socialistic or fascist or commie EU countries.

French people are kind of dickish as a whole, but yeah... they made a sovereign decision to not march blindly off to war with us and for some reason we cant forgive them for it.

As for teaching gay history, I doubt its a full class. Maybe a devote a couple lessons to it or work it into the current curriculum.

you say "under god" shouldn't be in the pledge because some people aren't christian...

well some people are against gay marriage, and gay rights period, so they shouldn't be required to learn stuff against their beliefs, especially because this course will undoubtedly be biased for the fags...

M'KAAAY?

I'm against big business, I dont believe in it. I shouldn't have been required to learn about stuff against my beliefs.

I think you were very successful at not learning anything, mission accomplished!

Whether or not some people are against equal rights for gay people is as irrelevant as whether my parents were bigots when the curriculum was expanded (at both private and public schools) to be more inclusive of black history. Now, I'll be the first to say that some places have gone overboard, and "afrocentrism" tends to be bullshit, but the real contributions of blacks should be included in the curriculum. I disagree with some of the groupings, but I doubt anyone is going to teach that Harvey Milk should have a bust next to Thomas Jefferson.

The gay rights movement is legitimate history. You simply can't argue that issues some right wingers have described as "the most important of our time" aren't history and history in the making.

And absent the stupidity of some comments, the AIDS epidemic is also history, and probably should be included with discussions of tuberculosis, flu, yellow fever, and its treatment would also fall into major medical advances if not for the number of people affected worldwide, but because of the leaps and bounds which have occurred in immunology and anti-virals which benefit everyone.

We have no special reason to know the name of George Washington's wife or his alleged girlfriend, but both are taught in history class. That's not indoctrinating people to heterosexuality, it's details.

How Ironic, all that gays have is history, their future is a dead end.

Liberals and fags could not pass gay marriage in CA so they figure indoctrination of children is the way to go. What a bunch of sick bastards that believe this crap.

Yeah, we only show up in history for thousands of years.

Most of the people in history books are dead.
