No Gay Zone

If you haven't heard about the high school in Mississippi that canceled prom instead of letting a lesbian student wear a tux and bring her girlfriend, you need to read this:

As you can imagine, I have a number of problems with this. I'll keep it short.

1- You really think it would be worse to have a gay couple there than cancel it completely?
2- Students are mad at this girl because "she got their prom canceled." It's not her fault! She wanted to go! Guess if she can't go, no one should be able to.
3- No one would even notice if they went. Half the people are probably drunk. The other half would think it was a joke to have a girl in a tux.

I'll leave it at that. But they're giving the south a real bad name.
