		<description>This is not bullying. It is peer pressure and is healthy. There are many bad behaviors such as smoking, under age drinking and drug abuse that are behaviors that cannot be condoned. Homosexuality falls into this category.


Who gets to decide which peer pressure is healthy and which is not? Supporting violence is healthy? Supporting pressuring a kid into committing suicide is healthy? This guy is sick.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t remember EVER seeing anybody bullied in school because they smoked or drank.  I do remember seeing homosexuals mocked, threatened, and beat up just for the way they walked or looked or talked.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;It is peer pressure and is healthy.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Just to make sure I&#039;m clear on the reality here: Healthy peer pressure causes people to pretend they are something they are not, in order to receive social acceptance. As part of that, they enter into a marriage with someone of the opposite sex - a marriage that is destined to be dysfunctional on a basic level even though they may manage to have children, and then the marriage is highly likely to end in divorce. And according to the &quot;pro-family&quot; crowd, that scenario is good for society. Got it.

While that scenario may not be what they have in mind, it is the reality, and has been for eons. Oh, and there is another reality - guys going into the priesthood as a path to social acceptance, and we all know how well that turned out.</description>

Is this not what the Nazi&#039;s did to make thier nation &quot;Healthy!&quot;  Just sayin&#039;  Also, this would mean that pressuring someone of a different religion to join yours would be &quot;Healthy&quot; as well...oh wait that is Constitutionally protected!</description>
