SCOTTSDALE, Arizona, August 31, 2012, (LifeSiteNews.com) - Two leading U.S. Christian advocacy groups have joined forces to create a guideline to assure school anti-bullying policies protect all students from bullying and are not being used simply to advance the homosexual agenda.

Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), in a joint effort with Focus on the Family, has announced the “Anti-Bullying Policy Yardstick,” which allows public schools and the general public to evaluate thelegal aspects of a school’s anti-bullying rules.

“All students deserve to be protected from bullying, not just ones favored by certain political activist groups,” said Alliance Defending Freedom Legal Counsel Jeremy Tedesco. “And all schools need help to ensure that their policies comport with their students’ First Amendment freedoms and other legal protections. This tool is designed to provide that help.”

The Yardstick outlines the good and bad approaches to the top 10 most common components of school anti-bullying policies and will help detect strictly pro-homosexual programs propagated in the name of “safe schools” or “anti-bullying.”

To say that students not of the homosexual orientation can be bullied is hate against students of the homosexual orientation. (Sarcasm off)

***protect all students from bullying and are not being used simply to advance the homosexual agenda. ***

If they really look close you will find that most bullying is against students who are not athletic, not smart, or too smart, new to the school, poor or rich.

And most of the bulling can be traced to a few sadistic toughs in school who like throwing their weight around because they can get away with it as they know the weaker kids cannot fight back.

Those bullied often are between the rock and the hard place as their parents have told them that if they fight at school they will be beat when they home.

The left has latched onto the homos as a way of combatting the Christian influence in this country, and are using them to criminalize Christian beliefs.

“Bullying” is another contorted concept that they’ve latched onto, and it IS about advancing the homosexual agenda, and the left’s anti-Christian agenda.
