He'll wear his purple when he gets beat up by an angry mob..

On October 20th, 2010, I wore purple in honor of the numerous homosexual teens who committed suicide this year. When Clint McCance, Vice President of the Midland School District, was asked to do the same, he spoke his mind about the event in a Facebook status. Not only did the school official call the teens "queers" and "fags", but he stated, "The only way I'm wearin it for them is if they all commit suicide." He went on to say how he "likes how fags can't procreate," and he "[enjoys] the fact that they often give each other AIDS and die." (Miller)

This man can unnecessarily share his rude opinions on any social networking site he wants, but the fact that he is the Vice President of a school district makes this even more unacceptable. He should be setting an example for all his students, much less be judging a group of people. There are probably gay students going to Midland High School who are disgusted that they go to a school run by this person.

It is a shame that some people just can't let others live in peace. If you don't agree with the homosexual lifestyle, don't associate with them. People also need to watch what they say on the internet. It just might make national news.
