THIS is the kind of County Commissioner that we all need, praise Jesus!
Commissioner warns of homosexual "social and sexual agenda"
Tampa, Florida - Hillsborough County Commissioner Brian Blair is warning parents about the "Day of Silence."
The "Day of Silence" is an annual event created by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network to bring attention to name-calling, bullying and harassment of gay students. On April 25th some students will wear buttons or t-shirts to to observe the day. Others may even put tape over their mouths.
In an e-mail from the District 6 Commissioner, Blair encourages parents to contact the Hillsborough County School District to object. Blair notes an Internet list of schools that are alleged to be participating on April 25th. The list includes Tampa Bay Technical High School, Riverview High School, Wesley Chapel High School and St. Petersburg High School.
Here are excerpts from the Brian Blair e-mail:
"I have always believed that all citizens are equal and should be treated accordingly. On the other hand, no group of citizens should be given government sanction and support to promote their social and sexual agenda upon the rest of us and especially, on our children."
"Considering the fact that the same school system does not want to allow just one Minute of Silence in the classroom for God, this is preposterous."
"Can you imagine asking for a 'Day of Cheer for Heterosexuality?' If no action is taken to change this policy, then perhaps it is time for another surgical strike from the majority; 'A Day of Abstention' from school participation might be considered."
