High School Community Rallies in Support of Tolerance & Diversity

MC volunteer Scott Van Duyne grabbed the camera and I jotted down notes to capture the rally at Gunn High School this morning on behalf of tolerance and diversity. It became known that some agitators from a church in Kansas would be picketing out front of the school to voice their opinion that a godless gay-tolerant community is what is behind the recent suicides. The assertion is by definition ridiculous and should not be dignified by anybody even showing up -- that's one approach and it has its merits. However, 400 people felt it was important to show up, be counted and drown out the fringe message. The following video, I hope, will share the strong sense of community that was engendered this morning on the campus of Gunn High School.
