‘It was a mistake’ local school board member said after posting link to LGBT hate group on Facebook

Source: KDVR FOX 31

A member of the Jefferson County school board is apologizing after sharing a link to an LGBT hate group on her public Facebook account.

On April 15th, Jeffco board member Julie shared a link to a page from SaveCalifornia.com, which encouraged parents to remove their kids from school to avoid participation in the “Day of Silence”.

The “Day of Silence” is a silent protest conducted by students across the country each year, designed to raise awareness of bullying, especially involving lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students...

In the link, SaveCalifornia.com refers to the Day of Silence as “perverse indoctrination” alleging “They’ll teach children to support and embrace the unnatural and unhealthy homosexual-bisexual-transsexual agenda.”

Ah, I love it when they sing the oldies.
"Some of my best friends are Negroes" - oh if I heard that once I heard it thousands and thousands of times growing up. Always after some really nasty racist remark. - see, I didn't mean anything cause I have friends that are {minority} so I can't be prejudiced.

I love it when they sing the oldies, it makes them so much easier to spot.

thanks to technology we know what many people have said in private--and they have paid the price.

there are no LGBT hate groups, this is just bad reporting, with a sneaky anti-gay agenda, of course this is a story from a Fox news station.
Save California is a "pro-family" faith based hate group, part of the Campaign for Children and Families. In other words, a Christian hate group.
They are actually anti-family (anti gay families) and anti-marriage (anti gay marriage), and have no problem with hurting the children of gay parents, in their fight against every advance in gay rights.
