Queens, Kings and the Pawns That Throw Stones

[eggwards]

Interesting information not only about a Chicago high school that chose a Jock and a Cheerleader to be homecoming king and queen, but also about the guy who opposes them...well, at least one of them.

Channel 5 in Chicago covered the story of the high school that picked a gay boy (the cheerleader), and a lesbian (the jock) and interviews one of those family values creeps to act as a counter-balance to a story of acceptance. interesting how he doesn't have much to say about the lesbian, it's only the young gay boy that's pointed out.

Still, it's an interesting world, no?

Yeah, you're right, and it's good to see so many kids of the younger generation getting it. Not all of them, mind you, but I'm sure that upbringing has a lot to do with that. Schools are much more friendly and open for kids to come out now than they were in my day, but other kids are cruel, no mater who you are.

Still, there's hope.
