That's just ridiculous. What if someone wears a shirt that has rainbows in it, but is also saying that gays are sick and weird and stuff like that, could he wear that shirt?

You should get this tattoo to show your support.

So... hm... No rainbows=no gays? They're going to stop homosexuality by not letting people wear rainbows? I fail to see the logic.

A. What if someone wants to wear rainbows for the simple aesthetic appeal?
B. Do they ban purple, too?
C. Seriously, fuck all this homophobia bullshit. It's absolutely ridiculous. Why is it that everyone always seems to create a witch hunt out of something they're personally uncomfortable with? And how is it that gay couples threaten society? Fuck, people really suck sometimes.

o_o shit, can the really do that? it's so idiotic, i mean not only does it promote the idea of homophobia, especially to children; but it also violates like the kid's abilities to wear what they want. It's a bit surprising to me because it's in Ontario, and I guess this may have been a misperception, but I wouldn't think Canada would be the place this would happen(like aren't things supposed to be more open minded and sensible up there?)

No! The rammifications of colonization and ethnocentrism still linger today. The educational institution has been one of the main tools in maintaining this oppressive status quo. It's been steadily brainwashing the masses. I may be coming off as dramatic, but I think it's true. The oppression nowadays seems to be alot more subtle. I've heard it referred to as "covert oppression" (as opposed to "overt oppression). It doesn't stop with homophobia.

AidanBeach- can you show me the article you read about this anti-rainbow situation? Or is it 3rd party info from your own community?
