"Day of Dialog" from anti-gay Focus On The Family

The video above is to promote anti-gay organization Focus On The Family's "Day of Dialogue" - a rebuttal to GLSEN's "Day of Silence:"

The National Day of Silence is a day of action in which students across the country vow to take a form of silence to call attention to the silencing effect of anti-LGBT bullying and harassment in schools.

Founded in 1996, the Day of Silence has become the largest single student-led action towards creating safer schools for all, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. From the first-ever Day of Silence at the University of Virginia in 1996, to the organizing efforts in over 8,000 middle schools, high schools, colleges and universities across the country in 2008, its textured history reflects its diversity in both numbers and reach.

Fascinating that Focus On The Family and other anti-gay organizations urge parents to keep their kids home from school on Friday to try and minimize the impact of something positive like teaching kids it's not cool to beat the shit out of gay kids.

But on the website for "Day of Dialogue" they say:

"Wouldn’t it be nice if a deeper and freer conversation could happen when controversial sexual topics are brought up in your school?"

So NOW they want to talk about sexual topics???

And btw - the students in the above video keep saying they "have a voice" but notice how they don't say anything about the topic at hand?
