bill 44 debate continues in the virtual wonderland.

Some interested debate about Bill 44 has continued over the weekend in the comment sections of this blog post from June 2nd and this blog post from June 4th.

Meanwhile, Todd Babiak wrote an interesting Bill 44 related column this weekend.

  2. I was searching around and found a U.S. site called Theocracy Watch. There's an interesting quote on it:

    "Much of the homophobic hyseria [sic] is focused on the schools...

    Radio show host James Dobson of Focus on the Family was so upset with 'homosexual propaganda' in the schools that, for the first time in twenty-five years of radio programming he called for his followers to pull their children out of the public schools.

    The 'homosexual propaganda' that Dobson was referring to was legislation in California that adds sexual orientation to a list of forms of discrimination that are banned in public schools. The legislation was designed to give schools new tools to combat bullying and harassment of gay students."

    Well, I guess it might be a good idea after all for parents to pull their kids out of school if those kids are going to do the bullying.
