“Let my parents marry!”: 300 school age kids come together for gay marriage rally. Source: “Kids as young as 10 years old stood up and told one another how some of their parents had been together for 30 or more years – but had only a fraction of the legal rights of straight couples. “
Students at Provo high school in Utah were asked what they thought about the formation of a gay-straight alliance at the school and the results are fairly dispiriting. A sample: “If they have problems, they can talk about it during lunch or in between classes, or even after school. They shouldn't even freakin' impose on us. I'm tired of the gays.”; “They have, like, a sickness. You can't get mad at somebody for being sick.”; “I don't agree with being gay or lesbian, but I think it's OK that people want to make them feel accepted, but I wouldn't ever be a part of it.”
