Chairman Mike Long already said it. "Is there a different way to teach homosexuals? Is there gay math?" No, there isn't. Is there a different way to teach children who are notably more intelligent than most? Yes, there is. You can present them with greater challenges so they can put their intelligence to use.

Come on, so an all-white school can exist in name, just not in practice? Where's the logic in that? Why is there need to call a school all-something if you're not going to do anything with it? Regardless of that, there's the psychological effect. What black parents, except maybe the ones who are willing to use their children in an act of protest, would send their kids to a school that boldly states it's all-white? Similarly, with the social stigma still clinging to homosexuality and gender disorders I'm pretty sure few parents of heterosexual children will send their kids to this place.

It's beyond ridiculous, if you ask me. Political correctness getting way ahead of itself and taking a wrong turn somewhere. Do you really want to teach kids that to fight lack of acceptance, you have to hide yourself from it?
