I'm 17 and if this were to happen at my school I would CERTAINLY protest even though I am not apart of the demographic being directly targeted, it would affect my fellow students and therefore myself as well. How is banning certain people from using the restrooms during class any different than any and every other kind of discrimination? May it have been towards women or ethnic minorities?

Jews were not allowed to use restrooms in Germany under the Nuremberg Laws. And now gay people are not allowed to use restrooms at a particular high school?<br /><br />The alleged terrorists at Guantanamo Bay to say nothing of every serial killer in prison in the United States are all allowed to use a toilet when they need to.<br /><br />But at this high school in Kentucky, gay people are not allowed to use a public restroom. Period.<br /><br />Why not round up all the gay kids and put them in a concentration camp then? Because this kind of policy treads well down that path.<br /><br />I am sending a check to Kentucky Equality today so they can sue that school district.Simonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194749878289065745.post-91568750083904371072010-09-20T11:47:24.354-04:002010-09-20T11:47:24.354-04:00Your right this does hurt us all, However if it wa...Your right this does hurt us all, However if it was your right to use the restroom during a school day would it make it any different?

The difference is they have been singled out because of their sexual orinantion.

You know I am really si...Turn to Jesus for Answers!<br />You know I am really sick and tired of people picking on our children. I am tired of them being used to advance political agendas like the Senate Bill filed this year in the Kentucky Senate to keep gay and lesbian people from adopting children. Why is it the people are so afraid of things they don't understand? It is not as if we are seeking your approval.<br /><br />People who treat people differently because of their sexual orientation is racist, not to mention against God's will as described by Jesus.<br /><br />I always receive decisive guidance from a passage in Matthew where Jesus indicates how to serve God. One of the Pharisees tested Jesus with a question, "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" (Matthew 22:36 NIV). Jesus replied, " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. Jesus added something more to the greatest Commandment: "The second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself'" There are NO OTHER commandments greater than these!<br /><br />In First John the connection is explicit: "We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother" (1 John 4:19-21 NIV).<br /><br />BOTTOM LINE: When seen in the light of the fundamental principle of loving others, they imply that we should look for positive ways to enhance the life and prosperity of our neighbors. The focus on love helps us not to settle for a minimum concern for neighbors, but to reach out to them.<br /><br />You cannot hate homosexuals (who you do see), and love God (whom you have not seen); just as described above.Jason Livingstonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194749878289065745.post-62701131805798025982010-09-20T11:46:26.084-04:002010-09-20T11:46:26.084-04:00Rock on by brother Jason.

However by not allowing homosexual student to used the restroom this is segragation at least. No one is forcing any type of life style on anyone and if we where the straights would be the first to know. Small minded uneducated people are the one saying it ok what the school did because they know no better. Consider sources of infomation before believing it. I should know I am a Junior in college and I am out and proud gay, but people are just small minded and the best thing you can do is to try to educate them, because calling name doesnt do either side any good.Chris Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194749878289065745.post-9823171246840973952010-09-20T11:45:30.741-04:002010-09-20T11:45:30.741-04:00I have to agree the thing wrong witha lot of peopl...I have to agree the thing wrong witha lot of people is "FEAR" the fer of the unknowing.
