If everyone is like me, they have just about reached the breaking point with all this fucking war shit on TV 24/7.

But here's a GREAT WAY TO VENT all tha pent up emotion. Contact this fucking bitch!!

Jeannie A. Metcalf
3772 Burbank Lane
Winston-Salem, NC 27106
email: jmetcalf@wsfcs.k12.nc.us
922-2805 (H)

Does the "H" stand for "home phone number?"

This ignorant bitch is a member on the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County school board.

Metcalf was quoted last week in the Winston-Salem Journal as saying she thought that homosexuality is a sin and she didn't care if gay students were teased.

Metcalf wrote: "Let's have murder-pride marches, rape-pride marches, etc. I'm sorry if that offends you, but that's what I believe."

Nice lady.

Please send her a Valentine's Day present...a deluge of e-mail and phone calls educating her sorry ass on true Christian principles, gay teen suicide statistics, and the general unfitness of someone as prejudiced and ignorant as herself to serve in a position of authority for young people.

If you want to participate in a little arm chair activism please send this name and address out to everyone you know. Please post it on every gay message board you can find.

Thanks

North Carolina School Board Official Attack Plan To Stop Gay-Bashing

(Winston-Salem, North Carolina) The Winston-Salem/Forsyth County school board has voted to remove questions about anti-gay bullying from a systemwide survey of students.
The meeting was dominated by conservative board members who said the questions gave homosexuality what one member called "an air of respectability."

The two questions at the center of the fury ask: "How often have you heard students put down or make negative comments directed toward homosexuals at school this year?" and "How many teachers or staff members have you heard make negative comments directed toward homosexuals at school this year?"

Board member Buddy Collins, objected in part because it gave the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, which helped develop the questions, too much credibility.
Members Donny Lambeth and Jill Tackabery said a general question about bullying was enough. But, Jeannie Metcalf said homosexuality is a sin and should not be encouraged.
Metcalf was quoted last week in the Winston-Salem Journal as saying she thought that homosexuality is a sin and she didn't care if gay students were teased.

The paper has also uncovered an email in which Metcalf reiterates her belief that homosexuality is a sin: "And believe me, I know we all sin but what other sin can you think of that has been so whitewashed?"

Metcalf wrote: "Let's have murder-pride marches, rape-pride marches, etc. I'm sorry if that offends you, but that's what I believe."

Only two of the seven member board voted to keep the questions. Geneva Brown and Lynn Thrower said slurs against gays and lesbians may be more of a problem than school officials realize.

Metcalf said that a distinction exists between teaching tolerance for a person and teaching tolerance for a sin.

"We shouldn't be teaching tolerance for sin," Metcalf said. "But that doesn't mean anyone should be harassed. I don't think anybody should be harassed for lying or stealing, we shouldn't be harassing anybody."
