Good posts Jack, thanks. I would like to re-assert that the point of this thread is not to establish pro- or anti-homosexual sentiment, but rather to establish if the Rainbow flag should be flown over elementary schools which are typically populated with young minds not capable of understanding or rationalizing in any mature manner the sexual and social concepts associated with contexts the flag represents.
I'm glad you were able to rise above petty ignorance in order to establish strong and lasting relationships with those of another sexual orientation. Wish more could do so.
But I would ask, at what age are we prepared to sacrifice the innocence of children for our own social or moralistic purposes? Flying the Rainbow flag indiscriminately over an elementary school would seem to be an arbitrary decision made by a nameless, faceless organization, with much less skin in the game, rather than by parents who traditionally know what is best for their children.
What gives an organization the right to determine what, and at what age a child will be faced with exceptionally difficult social content to deal with when they are at a developmental stage least prepared to do so? And when they do so without explicit parental consent or approval, especially in a sexual context, why are they not deemed to be the 'sexual predator' we all strive to protect children from?
