Westboro at Kilbourne

Yeserday, May 10, the Kansas based Westboro Church was invited to speak at WKHS. WKHS said they invited them for educational value."I am very proud of my district for having the fortitude to invite these folks in to allow them to express their views but also to educate the children on why these views aren't correct," said Worthington Board of Education member David Bressman. He then talked about how this was a good thing to invite them because later on the students and teachers on why these people are nuts. I seriously think this is complete bull shit. This the stupidest thing I have ever heard. I happen to have a gay mother and find everything these people preach very offending and enraging. I know a lot of gays/bisexuals at Kilbourne and they had to have appalled by these visitors. I don't care about the bull shit reasons they have for inviting them, it is wrong in every way. I am so glad I wasn't there for these speakers.  Educating children about these bad people is great, but it is not the school's place to do it.
