Parents, Be Prepared for This if You Stand Up For Traditional Principles in Your Child's School

News Staff : Mar 22, 2016  Mass Resistance

"In our opinion, this is a pivotal battle that could set the tone for the rest of the Bible belt, and ultimately the rest of America." -MassResistance

They had indicated to parents that they would vote to remove the newly formed "gay" club from the county high school. But instead of taking any action, they surprised everyone by briefly discussing some proposed rule changes for all school clubs (designed to put constraints on the "gay" club)—then simply tabled the discussion and adjourned the meeting. (Photo via LifeSiteNews)

Joyful LGBT activists, mostly from out of town, comprised approximately three-quarters of the nearly 250 people in the audience. But the local parents at the meeting were extremely angry, feeling they had been lied to and deceived by their elected officials. Brian Camenker of MassResistance had been invited by parents and was also present. They told him they are not giving up.

After the GSA club was revealed, the national ACLU sent a strongly worded, detailed legal letter to various Franklin County school officials threatening to sue the school system if they did anything to disallow it. But this didn't dampen the energy of the community.

Also, the national pro-family legal group Liberty Counsel has spoken directly with school officials—disputing much of the ACLU's statements and offering to defend the county in court if necessary.

The LGBT movement also didn't let up. In the days preceding the March 14 School Board meeting, LGBT activists told parents across the county that the school was in danger of losing all of its clubs if the Board did anything to stop the "gay" club. This is not necessarily true, says Liberty Counsel. But it has frightened parents whose kids are active in school clubs.

On the day of the School Board meeting, Brian Camenker of MassResistance was in Franklin County. Early that morning he was on...
