A Pittsburgh-area school district is investigating allegations of harassment involving students.
Several parents and students from McGuffey High School in Washington County contacted Channel 11 News Friday, voicing concern about a so-called “Anti-Gay Day” allegedly organized by some students.
A group of students allegedly spread the news that if they were “anti-gay,” they were to wear a flannel shirt and write “Anti-Gay” on their hands.
The students allegedly organized the “Anti-Gay Day” in response to the observance of the nationally recognized “Day of Silence,” where attention is called to gay and lesbian bullying and harassment in schools.
“Yesterday, there was pushing, posters hung on homosexual students’ lockers. Teachers were having to run out and take them down,” said Johnson.
While students wore flannel shirts Thursday in support of the alleged “Anti-Gay Day,” Channel 11’s Cara Sapida reported that they wore orange Friday and allegedly have another five days’ worth of “anti-gay” attire planned next week.
At the end of the video in the link the reporter says that they have a "lynch list" of students too
Lynching is an extrajudicial punishment by an informal group. It is most often used to characterize informal public executions by a mob, often by hanging, in order to punish an alleged transgressor, or to intimidate a minority group.
It just amazes me how obsessed certain factions of society are with LGBT people. Live your own life, and stop infringing on other people's business like this. It's absurd.
I'm disgusted that something like this comes from the people of our generation. The Generation Y, our generation, shouldn't support things like this. What have they done to them? Nothing. Gay people are usually very peaceful and nice.
