LaBarbera and friends are terribly worried about ?No Name Calling Week?.
Really, because you know, it’s all gay and stuff.
How do we know? Because in the list of sponsors of “No Name Calling Week” is the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network

Even if one disagrees with one’s sexual orientation, is LaBarbera and gang suggesting that nonviolence and nondegrading responses aren’t the proper response?
The name of the organization (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network) would imply there are straight people who count themselves as members.
Therefore, LaLaBarbaric is now also discriminating against straight people as well as gay people… (granted, I’m using some version of twisted wing nut logic)
What to do?!?! Must be difficult always being such a nervous nelly about what your neighbors might or might not be doing.
Did you just call Pete LaBarbera a “nelly” during No Name-Calling Week?
I’m waiting till next week to start calling him names.
I suppose the appropriate response (in their minds) would be to picket schools with slogans like “God hates fags” or some such nonsense.
