Outside of a curriculum based need, and before children reach a certain age, race should not be discussed in any significant way.

 

In case you don't understand, this is as much to prevent a second grade teacher from spending a little time each day convincing their students that homosexuality is an immoral choice and gay marriage is wrong as it is to teach a more tollerant message.

Come on, you'd have to be terribly naive to think that this was done to protect gays.

This case in particular probably wasn't, but (in general) a policy preventing issues being discussed unless there is a significant need within the curriculum and it is at a age appropriate level benefits everyone.

In general, but in this particular case I think the point is to decrease visibility of homosexuality, and make gayness seem even more deviant, taboo etc.
