Ah, Scott, another example of uncritical thinking.

It is the exact opposite.

You DO grasp the
difference between public and private, as used in the US, right? OK... • more

It's a public school board. If it were a private school they should be • able
to enforce any behaviour standards they like on their employees, • including
requiring that their teachers be gay or not be gay. But public bodies,
including public schools should not be able to discriminate in that • way.

Usually, you tell me that they should be able to. Usually you say such
institutions will discover such actions are bad - and the market should
decide. I'll ask you again, do you think any school, public or private,
should be able to sack a member of staff for being gay?

Scott, why do you waste everyone's time with totally useless questions?

This is plowed ground IN THE ACTUAL POST.  Larry stated quite clearly his • position.  I
don't see how much clearer it can be, and if you can't see the answer, you • really
should just go away, because you'll be wasting everyone's time asking them • to explain
something that is perfectly clear to any rational person (oh wait, you've • already done
that repeatedly).

It is also not clear to me if Larry is talking about what he wants or what
is already happening. I more interested in why Larry thinks there should be
a difference.
