‘NO PRIDE IN BEING STRAIGHT’
“In yet another example of ‘I believe in free speech, but you need to shut the hell up,’ a series of posters calling for a week of ‘straight pride’ were seized and removed from the campus of Youngstown State University in Ohio.
“The posters read, in part:
“’Join us by celebrating straight pride by not annoying the shit out of everyone about your sexual orientation!
“’Brought to you by the students that are sick of hearing about your LGBT pride. Nobody cares about what you think you are, or what you want to have sex with. We have nothing against your sexual orientation. We just don’t give a fuck.’
“Amid a rainbow hurricane of outrage and glitter-spackled tears, the posters were removed. Campus information officer Ron Cole said:
“’While we recognize the right to free speech, this is counter to our mission of being a diverse and accepting campus.’
“In other news, war is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength.”
