So bone-headdresses is nothing new.

I read that the "school is designed specifically for" homo-sexuals. Are gays so physically different from the rest of society as to need specially designed stair cases?

Obviously if its a private school, the owners of it have the absolute right to discriminate, and exclude whomever they like. Government schools funded by theft, "not so much".

Straight kids kill themselves, native kids kill themseves, drunk kids kill themselves, geeky kids kill themelves, popular ids kill themseves. Are polices of segregation, and apartheid the answers? I'm not as sure as I was when I was a kid.

My grandmother thought residential schools really gave her a lot of opportunities that were not open to her otherwise (she was an RN), until about 5 years ago when she realized she qualified for money from a class action lawsuite with the Canadian government. Now she is a victim of their intolerant ways.

Maybe it is a good idea.

Maybe I'm a little slow on the uptake, but I do not see how increasing segregation will lead to an increase in integration

It has been a few years, but I'm pretty sure (A -> !A) , is a logically false statement.

Children commit suicide as well as goats; did you turn into a human when you reached puberty? All joking aside, these artificial classifications of human beings trouble me deeply, especially when they are imposed by the State or its useful idiots in the press.

'Integration' is code for, "destroying parent's rights". If you do not want your children to attend a school with policies that go against your philosophy that is your absolute right. Your children are your property, and no one has the right to force them to attend a school which teaches them against your wishes or exposes them to ideas that are contrary to your philosophy.

Increasing 'integration' by the force of the State and its power to tax, is anti libertarian, anti human immoral and a very bad idea.
