Stand up Comedian.. Gay Native American

Here is an insider making fun of being gay and native american. When you are an insider, you can make fun of yourself, but if this comedian was not gay or native american, he would not be able to make the same jokes.. But do you find this funny? It seems like the audience doesn't know whether or not to laugh..

Homosexuality worse than terrorism??

Oh you've got to be kidding me.. I can't believe someone is that ignorant to say such a thing.. OKLAHOMA CITY — A YouTube audio clip of a state lawmaker's screed against homosexuality, which she called a bigger threat than terrorism, has outraged gay activists and brought death threats rolling in. (reported Fox News on Sunday, March 16, 2008) This is just plain sad.

Controversy with Homosexuality in schools

http://tnjn.com/2008/feb/21/homosexuality-in-schools-creat/

I came across this article discussing how in schools there is much controversy regarding homosexuality. Apparently there was a bill that State Representative Stavey Campfield's was trying to get passed. It prohibiting homosexuality references in pre-k to eighth grade in Tennessee school systems. Fortunately, this bill was turned down though. The bill "would allow for the teaching of heterosexuality." I liked how the article mentioned that by teaching only one side of the argument is like giving a child only half of his or her education. This is so true! I mean, society needs to get it through their heads that homosexuality is not an issue, it is someone's identity. It's not right to take away, or shun, a part of who someone is! How is this any different than being racist? Telling someone to cover up their skin because it makes you uncomfortable? I mean come on... Like the article said, "People fear what they don't understand - they fear change." .. I guess this means we just need more opportunities for people to be educated on accepting people for who they are, not what they are.
