Click here
If you live in Tennessee why don't you do me a favor and liberate those poor kids.
I will salute and say something nice about the south for a day.

1. If I was the Tennesse Governor
I would order the National Guard (well, if they weren't in Iraq) to storm the camp, liberate the prisoners, and forcibly arrest the Commandant, er, camp director, as well as all the goons of the camp. The conditions at this camp seem little better than Gitmo.

21. Yeah, but you see you're sane and you live in a sane area
You see this is in the south and the majority of the people that live there are insane.

2. We have about as much control over that
as you do over all the hordes of Ohioans (IFOs) who come to Nashville like it is Mecca.

5. Well those people are wanna be briars or briars in general
You see while you people were down there handling snakes we had something called the Industrial Revolution in which we mass manufactured goods. Well a lot of your briars moved up here so they could work those jobs and personally the ones that vote for those 'pugs I would get out of my fucking state and go back to the hills where they can their cousins and leave me the fuck alone. You see you guys can go over there and kick the door in and let them out. Or something else like that.

3. That Tennessee is infected by many who love Jesus and march in lockstep
to the beat of their drummer should be obvious for all to see.

4. Alas...those you speak of know nothing of the teachings of Jesus...
only the rantings of those who have corrupted them for personal gain...:(

If some of these pseudo-christians would read the book instead of getting perverted synopsis', they'd be far better off.

9. Uh, didn't we fight a war to get rid of slavery
some time ago?

The government of Tennessee should shut this thing down, and now. If not, it needs to be torched.

17. Beethoven was a child of the enlightenment and that's what took us out of-
the medevil ages. They want us to go back to the medevil ages.

15. I can just imagine
I've worked in a State hospital, done drug rehab and done adolescent treatment. I've heard of the "make people straight treatment" centers. I love that question: that if it is a choice...when did you decide to become straight. I've always been cool about gayness. But, would I want one of my boys to be 'one'. God, what a dangerous choice. What if they got beat-up? Killed? Harassed? Man. I just wouldn't want them to suffer. It just couldn't be easy. I don't think anyone would come 'out' if it wasn't something they just couldn't help. Bless those people with gender identification difficulties.

18. Think about it, why would anyone choose to be gay
You get beat up, killed, attacked, discriminated against everywhere in America, and just because they're gay. You don't see this shit happening to straite people do you? No!!

19. Hey, didja know?
"Wasn't I born gay?"

No, you weren't born gay. There are many factors which influence the development of same-sex attractions during childhood. These include the relationship with your parents, relations to other children of the same sex, possible abuse or molestation, etc. God has allowed you to have this particular temptation, but he has also provided you a way out.
I Corinthians 10:13 says, "No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make a way for you to escape, that you may be able to bear it." You may not have chosen your sexual struggle, but you can learn how to choose your sexual activities.

26. The worst part is...
The parents believe they are doing the right thing for their child. In reality, they have opened a gorge between them and their child which will more than likely never heal.

They will never trust their parents again with the slightest problem or situation, when they have shown such poor judgment in the past.

30. Homophobia is one of the worse sins ever!
These are the sort of people who would call Jesus a "fag" or a least a "fag-lover" and what to beat to death. Wait, they do that everyday at this camp by mentally abusing these children! :cry:
