Linda Harvey: Teacher’s union gives ‘$$ incentives’ for students to be gay
Linda Harvey, founder of Columbus, Ohio-based anti-gay Mission America, has now targeted a National Education Association affiliate for providing college scholarships for LGBT high school students.

Harvey, who in April claimed that “demonic manipulation” was making kids gay as she railed against the National Day of Silence, took to the airwaves to imply that an NEA affiliate teachers union was offering “financial incentives” for students “to be actively engaged in both the political goals of homosexuals as well as the risky behavior.”

Harvey combined anti-gay rhetoric with her stringent opposition to the rights of workers and organized labor:

The group’s website says they raise money for teen scholarships given to those kids who consider themselves homosexual.

1. I really wish the M$M would stop giving these people
a soapbox to stand on, because most of them would probably go away and the ones who don't will be forced to the street corner were they will be thought of as insane.

14. Wow. You think the lgbtq nation is the "M$M?" Really?
Where have I been?

That little over-used meme aside, I don't agree that you fight bigotry by pretending it doesn't exist.

15. I was talking more in general then this instance
Everytime I turn the "news" on they are always talking about these kinds of groups and by giving them a stage you give them power.
