So wasteful............
Disgusting - I could careless if you are gay, straight or whatever else is out there today. But there is no need to celebrate another persons lifestyle. Is this not discrimination against straight people?
“When you’re in elementary school, and you’re just coming into adolescence, it’s a very vulnerable time,” said Greater Essex County District School Board vice-chairman Julia Burgess, who introduced the motion. “You may not have a lot of peers like you. The Pride flag tells them we have their back.”
That's not disgusting.

So basically, "Let's make an already intricate time in a child's life even more complicated by telling them what they should do by way of careful indoctrination."
Absolutely absurd as well as disgusting. Is this what we've become?

The three of you have kind of proven the need for this. You're even grown ups and should know better. Imagine the crap the kids pull.
Sorry, missing your point. Dumb it down for me.
Okay, I'll make it real simple, even for you:
The only flag that should EVER be flying at a school is a Canadian flag, and to a lesser extent, a provincial flag.
As Canadians, we are to all be equal. How can this be achieved if we keep granting special interest groups privileges like this?
Furthermore, Let kids be kids.

More than likely this though: Homophobic? Maybe You’re Gay
In recent years, Ted Haggard, an evangelical leader who preached that homosexuality was a sin, resigned after a scandal involving a former male prostitute; Larry Craig, a United States senator who opposed including sexual orientation in hate-crime legislation, was arrested on suspicion of lewd conduct in a men’s bathroom; and Glenn Murphy Jr., a leader of the Young Republican National Convention and an opponent of same-sex marriage, pleaded guilty to a lesser charge after being accused of sexually assaulting another man.
One theory is that homosexual urges, when repressed out of shame or fear, can be expressed as homophobia. Freud famously called this process a “reaction formation”

A lot easier for straight kids to be kids than it is for gay kids to be kids.
Kind of the point of flying this flag once a year during pride week.
Four of you.
Which constitutes a majority.
