Obama's radical leftist group change.org and the ACLU are injecting themselves into our local issues

Gay activist gears up for protest against Flour Bluff High School

Obama's change.org group has sent out the email that I copied below and added this cause to the front page of their website. 

Please tell us what you think by posting a comment below, and if you would like to send a message of support to FBISD, I have provided the email address of Dr. Julie Carbajal, Superintendent.

When Nikki Peet recently asked for a safe space for students to meet and discuss issues like anti-gay bullying at Flour Bluff High School in Corpus Christi, Texas, she expected the support of her school district.
But instead, Dr. Julia Carbajal -- Flour Bluff's Superintendent -- decided to cancel all extra-curricular clubs in order to prevent Nikki’s "Gay Straight Alliance" (GSA) student group from forming. It's her way of getting around the federal "Equal Access Act" law mandating simliar access on school grounds to student groups, regardless of their politics or philosophy. 
We know what happens when schools fail to address the bullying of LGBT kids: depression, isolation, and suicide. So we need to help. 
Nine out of ten LGBT students experience harassment in school because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. At least two-thirds feel unsafe in the classroom. LGBT teens can be up to four times more likely to commit suicide than their heterosexual peers.
In just a few days, nearly 4,000 Change.org members have signed the petition supporting Nikki, sharing the story on Facebook and forwarding emails like this to their friends.
This Friday, Nikki and members of the Corpus Christi community are organizing a major demonstration outside Flour Bluff High School. At the protest, Nikki and her supporters will be delivering petition signatures to Flour Bluff administrators, sending a strong message that it’s time to provide a safe, caring and effective learning environment for all students -- including LGBT youth.
The superintendent's outrageous actions have garnered attention throughout the U.S. Students, parents, and school officials everywhere are watching to see what happens -- and the outcome in Corpus Christi will have reverberations across the country.  
Sign our petition today, so Nikki can deliver the signatures of as many people as possible this Friday in Texas:
Thanks for taking action,
- Eden and the Change.org team
