Hahaha My my my, you are quite the politically correct nazi, aren't you? Answer me this, social fascist: Would you characterize "slight bemusement" at someone's sexuality as "homophobia"? Of course you would. Becuase you're a moron. Teasing someone for their sexuality is the same as teasing someone for their skin color, hair color, height, and any other inherent trait. It's a process we all went through, and we are better for it. You need to be thick-skinned in the real world; stop playing the race card/gay card you goddamn neo-tolerance nazi. + Show Spoiler + GINGERPHOBIA!!! I CALL FOUL, I WANT MY MONEYS!
Any self-respecting american detests these superfluous lawsuits. They validate an ugly stereotype about our comfort-obsessed culture.
What's up, Godwin's Law?

Courts let people sue for large sums of money in these cases so that other schools practicing discriminatory policies will get the message. The courts would much rather let a few schools be sued for a lot then have to file the paper work for all of them. It might not be truely moral but its an effective way to deal with it.

I know you've gone right wing and crazy (Stimey much?) lately, but are you fucking serious? "Everyone gets picked on" isn't a valid reason for school officials to not stop abuse. Surely you can admit that the job of school administration is to create a decent learning environment and protect the students who go to their school. It's a public institution, and parents don't send children to school to learn to be "thick skinned in the real world," especially since in the real world people who physically abuse others are sent to prison. What you probably mean to say is that you're tired of frivolous lawsuits in general, and that might often be the case but here it's not, and I think you're being a contrarian just for the sake of being one. So your position is that, when someone teases a child at school, if the administration doesn't interject, they should be sued.
And yes, the neotolerance ideologues are social fascists.
And it's funny, Jibba, your comment on my politics. Aren't you a frothing Obamaniac? He's sold us out to the banks, put wallstreet in the white house, and broken most his campaign promises already. Good eye on that one, hoss.

Wow man. That is just sad. Do you high five some imaginary friends when coming up with these words?
It's one thing to discuss if it's ok to sue the school or not. But c'mon man. You can't be that ignorant. You obviously didn't read the thread nor do you have the slightest idea what a gay-straight alliance is.

How can you possibly think the administration has no place protecting its students? And not just protection from teasing, but protecting their first amendment rights as well.
Hell, you could take the position that the students are misrepresenting the facts and are just one side of the story, but if what they say is true, there's no reason they shouldn't have been allowed to form an organization.

Wrong, and wrong. Good luck trying to pinpoint my ideology though.

a similar thing happened at a high school im wyoming, where a bunch of students ganged up on this kid who was gay and beat him up and left him to die (he did). people really need to just accept people for who they are, like who the fuck cares if someone's gay. its irrelevant to your life

Yuk, the Dems are committed to passing "hate crime" legislation over Matthew Shepard. The murder was horrible. Prosecute based on the horror of the act rather than the "thought crime" behind the crime.
That said I think the girl should invite some gay rights advocates to picket the school in addition to filing the suit. Ship in enough gay activists and the school will beg her to stop it.

for some reason, i always remember this thread whenever hate crimes come up on TL (read a few posts in)
