Shocked, Disgusted, Hurt.

We need to be alive to see this change.
I am wiping away tears as I write this post. I do not know what people think when they go out and purposefully hurt others. It is an outrage at what has happened because of people's privacy being put public, and I cannot believe that this is still happening. I have a number of gay friends, and it is not acceptable for this to be happening. There is too much teasing and it has gone too far. Parents need to talk to their kids about stories like this one so they can have some understanding of how people are being hurt. We have to help, we have to make this stop. Everyone can make a stand to support causes like this. The LGBT community is growing and is strong and full of support for anyone who needs it. The Trevor Project is specifically to support the youth of this community in times of need.
Here is California we should set an example, be the most accepting, but America as a whole needs to grow up.

  1. #itgetsbetter.....literally... it is a HORRID world we live in when so many no matter the circumstance see no other option. if ANYthing remotely positive comes of this, is awareness and change. hopefully some sort of reprimanding actions towards those who push the innocent to the edge. "be kind, for everyone is fighting a hard battle."
