Because posting in the poli/sci/nerd forum is NO EXCUSE for a waiver of the Standard McClain Disclaimer, and I don't give a fuck if it was abolished before you even knew of i-mockery, but some things just are historically important, better, and this only proves everything was better back before you noobs came along and ruined it.

To me, it's still about civil rights and discrimination based on what is, most evidence suggests, primarily a genetic physical characteristic. I could make some remark about the rights of blacks immediately after the Emancipation Proclaimation, but I think even today Western society still has a long way to go in minimizing prejudice and discrimination, so that's beside the point.

WTF? I have not heard of this. A public school for gays only? That's stupid.
