    Love this line: "I am against the video - even though I've never seen it."

    Kind of the definition of bigotry, innit?

    Well, I hope they do decide to include the video. It makes me happy to see schools taking a stand in the fight against homophobia.

    Yeah I think that man is just from the age when gay didn't "exist" so he believes things like my mother sometimes does. That hearing stuff about being gay will make one think they're gay. >_>

    I thunk this is the absolute number one best way to fight homophobia in this country. Kids make fun/are confused and scared because they don't understand. So let's help them understand.

    I'd like to see the video in question, and some google searching didn't find it. I don't see a reason to not show it (even if, as it is claimed by a naysayer, "the video is more about coming out than about not bullying"), but I'd still like to see it.
