A South Carolina school district gets an "A" in bad education. First we have cry baby Eddie Walker, who resigned as Irmo High School's principal over a Gay-Straight Alliance, and now the bad blood has spread to the rest of the school district. And the protest is so overzealous, even evil Viola Swamp would be ashamed:
Rather than risk a lawsuit by banning a gay student organization, a South Carolina school district is considering whether to ban all student clubs that don't relate to academics or sports.The Lexington-Richland School District 5 school board plans to vote Monday night on whether the district should ban the clubs as a way to shut down a proposed group called the Gay-Straight Alliance.
A school spokeswoman says the district couldn't stop the alliance from forming because federal law prohibits discriminating against a club based on its purpose.
Way to set an example, folks!

Great. How about a Gay-Straight baseball fans club?
Exactly foofyjim! A G/S softball team. Let's see the school district get around that one with their ban.
You guys are quick. I was going to suggest exactly the same thing. Two clubs really, GLBT softball, and GLBT academic challenge clubs.
It would be impossible for these ignorant, hick rednecks to give up football and wrestling…
It would be impossible for me to give up football + wrestling, too. Well, watching the men who participate in those sports, anyway.
I'm so sad that a lot of my fam is from SC having read this.
