National Coalition Urges Parents to Keep Kids Home on “Day of Silence”

But why? DOS is organized to protect LGBT kids, promote peace and harmony at schools.

Why would a nationwide coalition of Christian and pro-family groups do such a thing -- calling for parents to keep children out of schools on Friday, April 25, 2008 — the day when thousands of middle schools, junior highs, and high schools will observe the 12th Annual National Day of Silence?

As a concerned gay man, having many god-loving friends who have kids in schools, I have to say that the Christian and pro-family groups, nned to rethink their position and support the DOS. To against DOS means to support the killing of LGBT kids.

Buddy Smith of American Family Association said in the recent press release: “It’s outrageous that our neighborhood schools would allow homosexual activism to intrude into the classroom.

My reaction to Mr. Smith: "Day of Silence" is not about coercing students to repudiate traditional morality. It’s time for Christian parents to respect the LGBT children some of whom have been cruelly and senselessly murdered, molested, abused in schools by straight students and teachers.

“Day of Silence” is promoted by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), a homosexual activist group that targets schools. The event is typically organized by a school’s Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA) and is designed to pressure students to regard homosexual, bisexual, and transgender behavior as normal and worthy. Students and even some teachers remain silent throughout the school day, disrupting the teaching environment. Protesters wear t-shirts and hand out “speaking cards” protesting alleged injustice, harassment, prejudice, and discrimination toward “LGBT” people and their “allies.”
