Bill singles out gay HS students for harassment

Hmph!

Reminds me, in a roundabout sort of way, of the debate on the word "racism/racist". In that case the strategy is to deal with racism by changing the definition of the word, effectively making the real thing (the abuse of power by a members of the dominant culture, using their inborn superiority as an excuse) invisible.

This isn't precisely the same, but it's a riff on the same strategy: make the queers invisible again ... then dollars to donuts the argument will be the old "looking for special rights" nonsense.

I hope the people of Iowa don't fall for it.

ETA: having worked for 4 years on a college campus known far and wide for queer-bashing, I can attest that lgbt folk are most definitely singled out for harrassment and worse.
