Another distortion in Oppenheim's column is the comparison between past movements for racial/gender equity and the current pro-queer movement. Oppenheim inherits the subtler arguments of those who would keep women in the kitchen and blacks at the back of the bus because they felt society was not ready. At one point, America looked unready for gender and racial equality; radical activism changed that. If America looks unready for non-heterosexual orientations to be accepted, it is because we are hopefully in the process of moving towards acceptance...
...couldn't wait for concerts," says Doug. "He'd get a grin and look straight out to us and give a thumbs up." And many mornings Drew would get dropped off by his parents at their home to chat and sip hot chocolate while he waited for the bus. Just days before the incident at Westside Middle School, Jackie says he was on his best behavior, accompanying her to the hair salon and earning plaudits for his demeanor from the astonished stylists...
...Tuesday, March 24, Mitch and Drew skipped the school-bus ride and first period.

Woodard?s claim also runs counter to the accusation of Doug Golden, Andrew?s grandfather -- who says Mitch was the one responsible for stealing his guns. The two families may squabble over whose child took the lead, but only the Arkansas juvenile court can untangle the truth...
...Rutgers student (Republican, Democrat, feminist or not) has been exposed on many different occasions to the fluorescent posters stapled to the lamp posts and bathroom stalls of the University by numerous organizations on campus. Some students may ignore the different views suggested to them as they wait for their bus ride to class, while others feel compelled to voice their counter argument. Still, some can do nothing but tug at those advertisements and toss them in the trash, omitting any possible threat that they perceived. They simply pretend those opinions don't exist...
