1. That's great for the other kids

but for Constance McMillien the damage is probably already done. Her classmates made a resounding statement that they did not want her company, and the emotional damage from that may last her a lifetime.

2. You may be right. One of the missions of this org is to support gay kids.

And their prom was planned before that school chose to be a massively ugly.

(I should have just put this in foxfeet's thread but was reading too fast, sorry.)

5. Already had the prom

So, this is another prom or dance? I was just reading where there were already two dances or proms for Itawamba students. Many schools down here gave up on proms years ago. I do know several who still seem to be doing it, though. I never recalled our faculty and administration knowing who would be attending the prom with us. Heck, some of us didn't know until the last minute. So much of it doesn't seem to make any sense.

6. This is a different event put together by MS Safe Schools on May 8.

I talked to them a few weeks ago. They sound young and pretty hip. :)
