Public Schools Becoming "Gay-Friendly"

Featured columnist at the Detroit News Deb Price applauds the fact that courts are requiring public schools to be "gay-friendly." Writing in yesterday's edition, Price says, "As America grows more gay-friendly, so must public schools: All school kids need to learn the ABCs of tolerance." However, the column itself shows clearly that tolerance is not what she (and the courts) are demanding, but rather unquestioning acceptance.

(Besides being one of the first openly homosexual columnists to be signed by a major newspaper, Deb Price along with her life partner, Joyce Murdoch, wrote And Say Hi to Joyce: The Life and Chronicles of a Lesbian Couple.)
