reject the amendment
 

This amendment seems to be leading us closer to an Orwellian future (but hey, maybe no one will read Orwell again, since someone may deem it "sensitive").  Parents and students already have the power to opt out and who decides what is "sensitive"?  Too many pitfalls here to navigate.
