blah blah blah blah...
please, i just graduated from high school back in 2000, and let me assure you some of the people who get ridiculed and lampooned the worst are not even gay. EVERYONE at some point in their school career gets picked on for one reason or another, that's just how things are.
religious kids get picked on in school, so should they have their own? what about a school for fat kids who get picked on relentlessly? what about a school for unathletic kids who get picked on? what about the white kids in inner city schools who get their asses beat on a routine basis, should they have their own schools?
this list could keep growing, but i'll spare you.
if some whiny liberals didnt get involved in the beginning, we wouldnt even have this problem. they used to have schools (600 schools?) for all of the bad apples who picked on kids, kicked their asses, etc, but they can no longer have those because it isnt 'fair' to the all of the sub-human pieces of shit who can behave for 7 hours inside a school.
im amazed by some of your posts when you say, 'gay people just want to be treated like everyone else' or something along those lines, because that is the furthest from the truth. some of them are demanding hate crime legislation, which would elevate them to a higher level under the law than your typical person, their own 'gay' publicly funded schools, access to the religious institution of marriage (i agree they should have some kind of union for tax and benefits, but not call it marriage because i dont want to see law suits against churches on the grounds of 'discrimination' for not marrying a gay couple; legislation should have no part in religion at any time.), etc.
didnt you say at one point you object the use of any of your tax dollars going to religious causes? well, what about the religious people who do not want to fund a gay school?
realizing that the state has been in the red for the past two years, why are they spending all of this money for a gay school in the rich, white area of greenwich village? what about all of the poor minority kids who have been in shitholes for schools for the last 40 years?
the amount of litigation this school is going to cause isnt even going to be funny.
In the future, consider reading my posts before you reply. Oh never mind. YOu never have and never will. Maybe I should post them on the freepers' site, your usual source of information.
Congratulations on completing high school. It really shows.
The drop-out rate from school, like the sucide rate, is many times h igher among gay kids than among straight kids. YOur argument is just ignorant of the facts. GAy kids are forced into the closet -- to hide their identities and thus denied socialization -- or they are abused far beyond the average dork. I suppose I could pull up the countless studies demonstrating this, but of course you would turn away from that too, because it doesn't fit your myopic view.
By the way, POINK, I don't pretend to speak for all gay people. Many gay people oppose this school. And you certainly don't reprsent in any general way all straight people. Hate crime legislation, for your misinformed information, doesn't just protect gay people. It more often applies to racial and other minorities. I wonder why gay people, a tiny minority of hate crime cases,. get focused on in this respect. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out. And the answer demonstrates the intractability of the particular prejudice.
As for marriage, I couldn't care less. I was married and have no desire to do it agin with either sex. The tax benefits that the married receive, which effectively make the single second-class, should be abolished. Why shouldn't all people take equal financial responsibility for their decision to breed and couple without the welfare of tax benefits? That is unlikely to occur, so, as far as the state goes, marriage among gay people should be legal. IF the churches don't want to sanction it, fine. The state has no business imposing a religious objection. That is changing all over the world. The decrepit pope is in an uproar over it. The dinosaurs are thundering toward the La Brea Tar Pits of a nostalgic morality.
If gay marriage becomes legal, I will return to law school and set up a chain of national o ffices specializing in gay divorce. I will become an overnight millionaire.

actually I'd like to see the statistics of gay kids dropping out of school in relation to non gays dropping out of school.

i know everything about the village being one of the gay hubs; i lived 15 minutes from the city.
i'm just saying it's rather strange the city is willing to offer up so much money to cater to an area which is inhabited primarily by rich, white people rather than spend the money on schools in the ghettos that have been in shambles of years.

espeically since the school system (and budget as a whole) is in the red, fiscally. They don't have the money to spend yet they're going to open this school. that makes a whole lot of sense. I guess the taxpayers of new york don't care.

How would this be any different than establishing a public school for Muslims, Christians, Jews, African-Americans, Whites etc...?
