A 12-year-old girl and her grandparents are suing the Chicago Board of Education as well as a substitute teacher and the principal at Ashburn Community Elementary School after the girl was “traumatized” when the teacher screened the movie Brokeback Mountain to her 8th-grade class. “It is very important to me that my children not be exposed to this,” said the girl’s grandpa, whose suit seeks $500,000, claiming his granddaughter required psychological treatment and counseling brought on by seeing the homosexual cowboys. “This was the last straw,” he said. “I feel the lawsuit was necessary because of the warning I had already given them on the literature they were giving out to children to read. I told them it was against our faith.” The teacher, who didn’t have signed permission slips from parents allowing their kids to see the R-rated movie, was said to have closed the classroom door, saying, “What happens in Ms Buford’s class stays in Ms Buford’s class.” Of course, anyone reading about the goings-on at Pure in Las Vegas, knows that catchy axiom is bogus. Frankly, we think the sub didn’t have a lesson plan that day and had just got her NetFlix in the mail that morning and…well, two birds with one stone. (Source)
