The Right-To-Bully Law

The Family Action Council of Tennessee (FACoT) is upset because students who are preacher-programmed homo/transphobes can no longer strut the Tennessee school hallways damning GLBT people to hell due to Tennessee’s anti-bullying law. On their website, FACoT claims: Tennessee law contains several provisions designed to prevent bullying in schools.   These provisions define what constitutes bullying; require school districts to […]
