This Wednesday is Harvey Milk Day in California; a day which is
intended to celebrate this important gay rights activist. One
conservative anti-gay organization, SaveCalifornia.com, is using radio
ads airing in Sacramento and Los Angeles to urge parents to keep their
kids home from school that day. Randy Thomasson, the president of the
group explains his reasoning behind the illogical boycott:
According to the Sacramento Bee,
the group's president, Randy Thomasson, says: "This is harmful to
children...This is not academic, it's brainwashing." Thomasson also
explained his feelings on the holiday to CBS13: “Children belong to the
parents, not to the state, and to force a sexual
agenda and a political agenda upon children, that’s highly
inappropriate.”
What is highly inappropriate is the all of the information as well as
a video posted on on the group's website which is full of hateful lies
and anti-gay propaganda. The alarmist image above is from the group's
website.
