If I had 30K for every time someone called me a fag, I'd be typing this from my yacht.

Well, a slightly bigger yacht.

Seriously?! Man, I want to retroactively sue practically everybody with whom I went through public school in the 80's then, because then? I'd never need to work again.

Glad he got some cash. Its about the only thing people understand in our society. Look how companies are with sexual harassment
suits, they will do everything possible to avoid and deny them cause they cost lots of $$$. Maybe some of this bullying will stop if these school boards knew they would have to pay if they stand by and do nothing about it.

It's even a shame in this society 2008, that someone would actuallyhave to feel bad about being called these names…bad enough to sue…good for him anyways..tho now these same people are probably calling him a pussy!

Well, was/is he gay? If the shoe fits, why didn't he say "yup" and walk away? Money could have been better used to buy books, supplies, and food for the needy kids in the school lunch program…………
