Atty Says School Threatened, Punished Boy Who Opposed Gay Adoption
FoxNews ^ | 1/24/12 | Todd Starnes

Posted on 01/24/2012 1:27:39 PM PST by Blood of Tyrants

A 15-year-old Wisconsin boy who wrote an op-ed opposing gay adoptions was censored, threatened with suspension and called ignorant by the superintendent of the Shawano School District, according to an attorney representing the child.

Mathew Staver, the founder of the Liberty Counsel, sent a letter to Superintendent Todd Carlson demanding an apology for “Its unconstitutional and irrational censorship and humiliation” of Brandon Wegner.

Wegner, a student at Shawano High School, was asked to write an op-ed for the school newspaper about whether gays should be allowed to adopt. Wegner, who is a Christian, wrote in opposition. Another student wrote in favor of allowing gays to adopt.

Wegner used Bible passages to defend his argument, including Scripture that called homosexuality a sin.

After the op-ed was published, a gay couple whose child attend s the high school, complained.

The school immediately issued an apology – stating Wegner’s opinion was a “form of bullying and disrespect.”

This really burns my butt. DARING to say that sodomy is wrong is "bullying" yet using the threat of suspension and name calling is ACCEPTABLE? GRRRRR!

It used to be that people like that were cordially invited to leave town...by sundown.

Guess we’re just a pack of wussies now.

And I had to listen to an hour of idiots on Howe Carr’s program claiming that Tim Thomas’s refusal to attend the WH pr stunt was disrespectful. All the while I’m thinking, don’t you see the blatant and willful disrespect coming from the libtards towards us.. get a grip. These people deserve nothing but contempt. Howe never does have the stones to tell them to get lost. Too bad.

Their child? It's biological history in the making.

But once again, we see the talk of tolerance go out the window when the gay thought police are called in.

Don't you know? "Bullying" means opposing homosexual activism.

Using one's superior position of strength and/or power to threaten, intimidate, and humiliate someone weaker than you, as the school administrators did to this student, is something else.

See also the new definitions created by the left of "rape" (intercourse that the woman later regrets) or "racism" (opposing preferential treatment for protected races.)

When people are trying to hide the Truth, they have to silence all opposing opinions. That Western Civilization has condemned sodomy as a dysfunctional, vile act since Christianity became the paradigm-—to put the vile child sacrifices, pederasty and homosexuality “in the closet” so to say.

Since the radical homosexuals want to normalize the behavior they have to do it in the classroom, when the children are younger and they have “plastic minds”.

It should be illegal to teach “sodomy is a right”. It is not. It is against Natural Law—the basis of our Jurisprudence in this country. We have Natural Rights From God-—not Rights from Satan.

I would sue any school that promotes such a vile evil behavior and lies and calls it “good” and a “right”. It is a lie.

All homosexuality is about child abuse. All homosexual societies are based in Man/boy sex——the Ancient Greeks and Romans, the Samurai, today muslims esp. Afghanistan.
The behavior is learned and the schools are grooming your boys to like fecal material. The Sanduskys who lead the radical homosexual movement want the young boys.

The following is the worldview they are trying to force on the future generation. Make sure you read the comments to see what type of world these people want—they want a culture where women are treated like cattle and breeders and boys are for lust. They also had child sacrifice-—oh, ya—we returned to that already....:

so this was a point / counter point where one side is not allowed?

the school official should be fired simply for calling a student stupid period.

The homosexual with the sex partner should be exposed for destroying a child’s life.

fwiw religion should never be used in this fight because mere faith conceades logic and reason to the proponents of homosexual special rights.

It’s pretty obvious who the REAL bully is!!!! And it’s NOT young Mathew Staver!!!!

Why should anyone show any respect for the sodomite activists and their “human rightser” supporters, when they do everything possible to destroy our country and our entire civilization. That goes DOUBLE for Soros and the other super-rich humaniterrorists, who back not only gaysbians, but also muslims and feminazis, and who run the disastrous obama Administration.

Ordinary Americans—as well as Serbs, Israelis, Russians, and many others—are the ones being BULLIED by this conspiracy of evil. It’s time to fight back HARD!!!!

first he is opposed to homosexuals raising children and thinks kids are better off with a mother and a father as it has been for generations.

Secondly he did the right thing as we are talking about men who love to put it in where the crap comes out of or a woman who has to wear a strap on to pretend she is a man.

Thirdly this is bullying and hate by the left yet again and their intolerance and hate are done every day and I am surprised that a network would actually post this as they usually defend this sort of crap and hate by the left

well said.

There is nothing natural or normal about homosexuality no matter how many times these activists sue, or put it on the movies etc.

Good for this kid and I hope that his family now go after the school, the school board for their intolerance, hate and bigotry.

Ping thought you might be interested in how the homosexuals and the left show their intolerance, their hate and their bigotry yet again towards the majority of this country.

Sue the school and sue the homosexual “couple” for instigating against the student. An apology is not enough.

Guess this Wisconsin superintendent of schools had to do something “for the cause” other than being a Scott Walker basher like many of his colleagues in Wisconsin public education.

I would assume that rational people in the County will know how to vote, the next time there is a school tax levy on the ballot.
