It's funny how I am totally there with you on giving my HS reunion the finger. I am not usually a bitter person, but when it comes to HS, I genuinely HATED a good 90% of my HS. This not only had to do with the blatant homophobic atmosphere, but mostly centered around the atrocious level of bigotry and intolerance on ever level. I come from a relatively wealthy area in Northern Virginia and with that comes spoiled "rotten" jerkoffs. I can't begin to explain to you how shady and evil most of the people that attended my HS were.
BTW Allison, I'm REALLY sorry that happened to you. I'm not the one to resort to violence out of the blue, BUT, if I saw someone being treated like that I would go apesh*t on the harassers. It only takes one person, you know...
