Schools in the US are decentralized, and local school boards have governance within the law over schools in their towns or counties. In western Arkansas, a member of such a governing body has praised the suicides of gay teens. (Source)
This school board member is charged with educating the children and youth in his district.
When asked to wear purple on Oct. 20, 2010, to show support for LGBT youth, he wrote on his Facebook page, “Seriously they want me to wear purple because five queers killed themselves. The only way im wearin it for them is if they all commit suicide. I cant believe the people of this world have gotten this stupid. We are honoring the fact that they sinned and killed thereselves because of their sin. REALLY PEOPLE.”
He went on in a comment to announce that he would disown any of his own children who were LGBT.
I believe this man should immediately resign his post, and if he doesn’t, that any legal means should be used to remove him.
Should he retain his position?
