Small Town Embroiled
in Gay Controversy

   

Krystal Bennett wore a tuxedo to her prom, and when titles for the prom court were handed out, Bennett was crowned Prom King. Bennett is the only openly gay student at Ferndale High School. While the students may be OK with this, many in the community of Ferndale, Washington, north of Seattle, are not. An outspoken anti-gay minister is to protest the high school's graduation this coming Saturday.
