Today: GLSEN's Day of Silence, an annual national event.
Purpose: Draw attention to anti-gay bullying
Remembering: Lawrence King; Carl Walker-Hoover
Opposition: Anti-gay groups have requested that Christian students walk out of class thus participating schools will not receive average daily attendance funds:
"Every child that stays home on Friday in protest will take almost $100, in California at least, from the government school system in the form of ADA -- average daily attendance funds," (Save California's Randy Thomasson] explains. "We think that's appropriate punishment for a school district that allows homosexual indoctrination of children." He adds that it is the only type of lesson to be learned for public schools which value money much more than morality. Other groups calling for parents to keep their children at home as a protest of the Day of Silence include the American Family Association and the Illinois Family Institute.
