The Peter has a new reason to go on the unhinged warpath since this is in his backyard.

    [T]he plan isn't likely to become a reality before 2012, and that's only if it passes through the bevy of criticism it faces from both sides of the political spectrum.

    Conservatives say the Social Justice High School-Pride Campus would be a misuse of public funds and require administrators to take a moral stance on homosexuality, a judgment well above their pay grade. Even some gay rights advocates argue that isolating the gay and lesbian population from the mainstream would be damaging and prevent different groups of students from learning to interact.

I hope it never happens.  Maybe they just want anyone who is different segregated from the rest of society.  Out of sight, out of mind.
