Maybe.

More than likely this though: Homophobic? Maybe You’re Gay

$1:

WHY are political and religious figures who campaign against gay rights so often implicated in sexual encounters with same-sex partners?

In recent years, Ted Haggard, an evangelical leader who preached that homosexuality was a sin, resigned after a scandal involving a former male prostitute; Larry Craig, a United States senator who opposed including sexual orientation in hate-crime legislation, was arrested on suspicion of lewd conduct in a men’s bathroom; and Glenn Murphy Jr., a leader of the Young Republican National Convention and an opponent of same-sex marriage, pleaded guilty to a lesser charge after being accused of sexually assaulting another man.

One theory is that homosexual urges, when repressed out of shame or fear, can be expressed as homophobia. Freud famously called this process a “reaction formation”

*edit, this post is a reply to rayden...

It's the old, "thou doth protest too much".

The other possibility is that "if we don't talk about or acknowledge gays, maybe they'll go away".

I don't understand the hate. They're not gonna hurt you.

Besides, if it weren't for gays, we wouldn't have bi-curious females. Which are my favorite.

Hate is rarely rational.

Very true.

I know from personal experience when I have asked people that have spouted off about "I hate ____" and asked them why the response was "Because they are ___"

Mmmmm... okay...

Bunch of sodomites trying to indoctrinate kids who might rather be playing kick the can or hide n seek. Homosexuals do not reproduce and therefore can kindly keep their propaganda away from our children.

Let kids be kids.

That's just what the "the non parent libs don't get"
No reason in the world to hoist this crap onto children.

Disgusting - I could careless if you are gay, straight or whatever else is out there today. But there is no need to celebrate another persons lifestyle. Is this not discrimination against straight people?

“When you’re in elementary school, and you’re just coming into adolescence, it’s a very vulnerable time,” said Greater Essex County District School Board vice-chairman Julia Burgess, who introduced the motion. “You may not have a lot of peers like you. The Pride flag tells them we have their back.”

That's not disgusting.

Never met a kid in grade 3 who was "coming into adolescence".
Unless they failed 3 or 4 times. For most that would be Junior High!
Shows how much Julia Burgess knows.

We don't have many junior highs in Canada. Most Elementary schools go to grade 8. Shows how much you know.
