Comments on: Scottsboro, AL Gay Couple Attend Prom http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2008/03/30/1728 News, analysis and fact-checking of anti-gay rhetoric Fri, 19 Mar 2010 14:11:21 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Regan DuCasse http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2008/03/30/1728/comment-page-1#comment-8621 Regan DuCasse Wed, 02 Apr 2008 01:45:14 +0000 http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2008/03/30/1728#comment-8621 They ARE a cute couple and good on them. They are quite brave and it may not seem to occur to the school board that this couple could actually be (gasp!), POPULAR with their peers. I got an Exodus youth newletter and the way Exodus wants to approach kids REALLY gets my fur up. But then I see young people like these two girls and then I see the possilibity that Randy Thomas outreach could just fall on deaf ears and his voice takes on all the strength of a mosquito buzz on the wind.

I don't understand the agonizing over it. Oh, we cannot let the dykes in...because...because...because they might make fun of the horrible decorations and complain about a lack of vegan appetizers!

As a 21 year veteran of Alabama, I can tell you that Scottsboro/Jackson County are not known for their kindness and respect towards LGBT citizens. Great for them and their supportive parents.

That's what jumped out at me too. I love it when the anti-gays' own words come back to bite them in the butt. Ha! That’s what jumped out at me too.
