Texas Students Walk Out After LGBTQ Safe Space Stickers in Classrooms Were Removed by School
Students at MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas staged a walk-out protest on Wednesday in response to the removal of a number of LGBTQ safe space stickers.
Videos captured by local outlets WFAA and CBS11 show hundreds of students participating in this week's protests, during which some teenagers were seen carrying rainbow flags and pro-LGBTQ signs.
According to WFAA, the teachers who sponsor the school's Gay-Straight Alliance Club handed the stickers out to their fellow teachers earlier this year — but those stickers suddenly disappeared by the end of August.
"There's a lot of hurt, confusion and fear from students who feel like the administration has a problem with them for being LGBTQ+," Rachel Stonecipher, one of the sponsors of the club, told the outlet.

What ever you do, do not read the comments! You will mostly see the majority whining about how they are the real victims. This is what happens when minority people get "uppity" and "don't know their place" before smacking down a bigoted remark or situation. See, the real crime is not the bigotry, but calling out the bigotry.
