who wants to re-instate legal discrimination against gays?
Parker said he was unconvinced that the fight had nothing to do with the outcry. He said other students have talked to his son about the issue.
Parker was arrested last year when he refused to leave Estabrook Elementary School without a guarantee that his child would not be exposed to teachings about homosexuality. In April, he filed a federal lawsuit over the issue.
Parker said he never filed a police report and doesn't want children to be investigated. ``We don't want to vilify the children," Parker said. ``We do want to get along, even though there's very powerful differences in beliefs."
Brian Camenker , president of MassResistance, said he still believes Parker's son was beaten up because of his father's views. ``The kids have been incited on this," he said. ``There's a lot of anger."
Ok, maybe things have drastically changed in the past 15 years since my kids were that age. I don't recall them ever being interested in such issues, much less wanting to fight about it.
Let's call it what it really is. Bigotry, as an industry, that requires the bigot to achieve and maintain a status as oppressed victim so that he looks more civilized and credible than Fred Phelps.
