First public gay high school set for NY

[Anonymous]

The reason it's a public school is because most private schools are accepting to begin with; Public school is generally more hostile. There is no legal way for them to turn down non-homosexuals, and the focus of the school is well-enough-known to deter most of them in the first place.

This really isn't any different than the white and black schools we have in our area. At Baltimore Polytechnic, for example, they didn't stop Raymond Yu from transferring to it after he got booted out of my school, but the student body is 99% black at Poly. The only problems here are being raised by people that aren't gay in the first place and are assuming what 'them queers' would want, which is homophobic to begin with.

In conclusion, gay kids get beat to fuck and back in public school, and here they won't. Even if we lived in a model society this school would still be a good idea.
