Warwick School Superintendent Peter Horoschak is stepping in after a student mural at Pilgrim High School was deemed inappropriate and painted over because it depicted a man holding the hand of a woman and child.

A parent of a Pilgrim High School student who first reported the incident to WPRO's John DePetro Show. The mural was meant to depict the life of a man and it ended with the scene with the man, woman and a child. The student artist, 17-year-old Liz Bierendy, said that she depicted the man and woman has married with wedding rings. According to Horoshack’s press release the scene was painted over because “some of the members of the Pilgrim High School community suggested that the depiction of a young man’s development from boyhood through adulthood as displayed may not represent the life experiences of many of the students at Pilgrim High School.”

According to the release, the assistant principal approached the Bierendy after the concern was raised from the school and “asked her to look at other ways to show the outcome of the subject’s progression to adulthood.”

You have got to be kidding me.

The stupidity and injudiciousness plaguing our schools is completely out of control.

No wonder kids and young adults are soft these days. They are being coddled and protected like some rare albino African Pygmy Hedgehog.

Somehow, I think that the ACLU is not going to become involved, since the grown man is not depicted being sodomized in a bathhouse as a part of his journey though life.

Someone had to say it.

Well what the hell was she supposed to depict at the end? I mean, marriage between a man and a woman is the most common outcome I can think of. It might not be everyone's life goal but I bet more of the kids identify with that than anything else.
