Interesting news story from here in calm quiet Edmonton...
The student-painted mural above was put up in a local high school, with prior approval by the school principle and art teacher. Then the school got complaints and covered the mural up.
Would there be complaints if it was a boy and girl kissing... would the school have covered the mural up if was a boy and girl... so, homophobic much?
- Kaela Wilton, a 16-year-old student at Onoway Jr/Sr High School, said she designed the mural to show support for gay people, including those who are afraid to come out.
- The school says it has yet to decide what to do next. Here's a suggestion... ignore the haters. You are a place of education, now's your chance to teach diversity and tolerance.
