The irony here is it not being highlighted.

School board bullies unanimously agreed to bully anti-bully activist by removing him from anti-bully event.

All they heard was the word 'activist' and it sent their tiny minds reeling.

No, it's because he's gay, not because he's an activist.

Actually, it's both. They can't imagine that a gay person could be any other type of activist than a "gay activist" hellbent on turning all their precious "normal" children queer.

It's an topical event. They want the presenters to be randoms off the street?

Anti-bullying activists are precisely the kind of people that we don't want leading anti-bullying campaigns!
