A Massachusetts activist organization today will mark the one-year anniversary of same-sex marriage in the state by discussing the "dark underbelly" of the institution in front of Boston's City Hall.
The Article 8 Alliance" claims the state's schools have become more active in pushing homosexuality with students, pointing to an April 30 event at Brookline High School.
Sponsored by the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network, the event, said the Article 8 Alliance, featured a "hard-core pornographic homosexual 'how-to' booklet given to hundreds of kids."
"The book was prominently distributed at the first table, right after registration, where everyone would be sure to go," the group states on its website.
The booklet, entitled "The Little Black Book – Queer in the 21st Century," contains what the activist group calls "deadly misinformation on health."
Included in the booklet are graphic descriptions of homosexual conduct, including "fisting," along with a photo-spread discussion of condoms and instructions on how to put them on.
Also included is a list of homosexual bars and clubs in the Boston area "for the discerning queerboy." The Article 8 Alliance points out the students attending the event were of middle-school and high-school age.
The booklet mentions abstaining from risky activity, and then states, "But how much fun is that?"
Brian Camenker, director of Article 8 Alliance slammed the pro-homosexual agenda in Massachusetts.
"Contrary to the rosy picture painted in the mainstream media, we've seen an intensification of undemocratic, anti-free-speech activities throughout our state – in the schools, in government and in the media," he said in a statement. "Alternative points of view are routinely drowned out by ignoring the message, intimidation, name-calling or lack of proper notification. Even pro-family churches now hesitate to speak out on this moral issue, since it has been politicized by the radical homosexuals and their allies."
Continued Camenker: "Meanwhile, our Legislature and governor continue to support gay clubs in our public schools, which draw our young people into this dangerous and destructive lifestyle," saying he had never seen anything as "bad" as the "Little Black Book."
The associate director of the group, John Haskins, also took aim at Gov. Mitt Romney.
"The one person who could easily have prevented this situation simply by defending the state constitution – our Republican governor – is getting a pass, even from pro-family conservative media, and has set his sights on the White House," Haskins said. "If he is not exposed as a very, very, very nice man with neither courage nor convictions, he will indeed be a Republican Manchurian Candidate in 2008."
As WorldNetDaily reported, a Massachusetts father who recently protested a pro-homosexual book his 6-year-old son had been given in school spent a night in jail after being arrested by police – an incident the activist group mentions as further evidence of a pro-"gay" attitude by officials.
ping!
First of all most here on FR went to public school so you are off-base.
Second, you are not calling attention to the contents of the book in question; it seems more as if you are calling attention to the fact that the public school was caught as a home-schooler could have gotten away with it.
Homosexual Agenda + Moral Absolutes Ping.
More or less a two-fer.
If teaching the how-tos of homosexual acts to middle school kids is not a moral absolutes issue, I don't know what is.
Know thine enemy is the key here.
Let me know if you want on/off either list.
NOTE: You may have noticed that I have been AWOL for some days, regular life intervened (and as I mentioned to one freeper, all things must pass, and some the sooner the better!) but I will be back on duty later tomorrow, and have a LARGE backload of informative and sometimes hair raising articles to ping out. So there should be a veritable Tsunami of pinging tomorrow.
Just what the hell is it about America we are trying to restore and preserve? I'll get back with you if I can recall.
Most of us went to public school before this crap hit the fan.
And what is your second point? That homeschoolers could be indoctrinating their children about homosexuality and no one would know?
Since the majority of homeschooling families, from what I have seen and read, are often avoiding the very kind of evil that is being described in this thread, I don't understand your point.
We are spending entirely too much money on education.
I cannot , ... cannot... CANT BELIEVE this .... no...
this is just not .... real .... no.
I refuse to believe that a government agency would endorse passing this phamplet out to teens ... no...
Too .... much ... reality ... (sounds of mental fuses blowing).
Ok. I have repatched the circuts. I have a copy of this phamplet. I will be advising everyone about it. Thanks.
Family is the foundation of nations. So if you wanted to destroy a nation, you'll start with the family.
Same as I would do if they posted about the Minutemen or Jesse Jackson to this thread.
My wife and I are involved in our children's schooling and this crap isn't happening at their schools. People who imply that we are abusing our children are idiots and deserve scrutiny as to their true motives.
"First of all most here on FR went to public school so you are off-base."
I went to public school. And I was lied to over and over and over...
That is definitely called 'abuse'.
No, America is the new Sodom.
Government child abuse in Massachusetts. Unbelievable.
nd how close did Kerry the Champion of Massachusetts come to the White House?
Oh dear...
"Is this the future? This booklet was distributed to hundreds of kids (middle school age and up) at Brookline High School, Brookline, MA, on April 30, 2005. It was written by the Boston-based AIDS Action Committee, with help with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the Boston Public Health Commission." In other words, the government helped.

How is this relevant to science and how it is taught? Well, the word 'risk' is used alot, but not explained much.
"...but research shows ..."
"Queers are teachers ..."
"Recent medical breakthroughs .."
And, the cartoon character in this little black book is a .... drum roll ... a doctor.
Kids trust 'doctors' don't they? Doctors are trained in 'science', yes?
I found this article to be powerfully motivating, fwiw, and I look at science, being used here to justify 'safe' and 'low risk' activity to kids .... and it makes me powerfully hostile to 'scientists' in general. Just confessing how I feel ...
Perhaps their lack of involvement should be punished.
