You are twisting words and quotes to try and...Tom,<br /><br />You are twisting words and quotes to try and make your point.<br /><br />You state that, "The mother of the student notes that " some groups are more vulnerable, noting "there's literature that says (gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender) persons are a high-risk group." <br /><br />It was not Tammy Aaberg that said this, but Phyllis Brashler, suicide prevention coordinator at the Minnesota Department of Health.<br /><br />Tammy Aaberg does not have a gay agenda, she is trying desperately to prevent the deaths of LGBT students who are being bullied to death in a school district that is failing to protect these students. Tammy is trying to prevent others from going through the pain she and her family are dealing with, because of Justin's death!<br /><br />Anti-bullying laws are not to further the "gay agenda" they are to protect all children from the type of bullying that is occurring across this country.<br /><br />I notice that in your posting you do not even mention that in this very same school district teachers were actually found by the MN Human Rights Commission to have done the bullying and anti-gay harassment themselves!!!! <br /><br />You say, "To live or try to live in conflict with how we are made will invariably cause problems, e.g. emotional, psychological and social." You are absolutely right, in fact studies show and numerous doctors agree that homosexuality is not a choice and cannot be changed!<br /><br />Homosexuality is natural, it has been around since the dawn of time, and even occurs in animals...you really need to do some more research in to facts, instead of dogmatically holding on to your close-minded, homophobic view.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7535354299638217634.post-59517079190882571962010-10-06T08:44:38.094-06:002010-10-06T08:44:38.094-06:00Hi Tom,

But the new girl at the SuperCuts messed up the back of it, and took an extra inch off. Oops. <br /><br />I was a little girl, had no breasts yet, too young for makeup, no easy gender identification for other people. And when they found out that I was a little girl, they hated me for something that wasn't my fault. Injustice hurts. Two of the NINE DEAD TEENS from this last MONTH were straight, but the perception of them being queer was enough to get people willing to torment them, gladly and viciously.<br /><br />How much do you think it takes to get a defenseless child to cry? How much injustice do you need to break a young heart, break a spirit so badly that no hope is left? <br /><br />If your pronouncements were valid, your judgment sound, these kids would still be alive. And you are advocating for blaming them for what was done to them. You are not hateful. You are blind. And loud. That is enough.flamingswordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17423835950483421731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7535354299638217634.post-89803347977949937502010-10-04T17:18:37.040-06:002010-10-04T17:18:37.040-06:00Isn't the loving thing to do to actually love ...Isn't the loving thing to do to actually love people regardless of your perception of their "flaws"? I think if someone is being bullied (regardless of the reason), they should be protected and loved. <br /><br />Tom - if I bullied you because I thought you are gay (which, by the way....I do), how far would it be acceptible to go? Should I start to stand outside of your house with signs telling the world that you are outrageously gay because of the way you dress and look. Would that be okay? I haven't had sex with you, but I'm assuming you hadn't had sex with Mathew Shepard either, but that doesn't stop your "stating your case."<br /><br />What if people start to believe me, and you begin to feel that the world is ganging up on you to the point that, in your despair, you kill yourself.<br /><br />How can that possibly be the loving thing to do.<br /><br />You ARE unloving and hateful. Think about what your words can do to others before you spew your hatred. I hope that there are more loving people around you when you finally admit to your family, and the world, that you are gay.<br /><br />"judge not"<br />EdEdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08923831222007013849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7535354299638217634.post-55191713562730628232010-10-04T15:14:49.726-06:002010-10-04T15:14:49.726-06:00Tom, when you reference articles to make your case...Tom, when you reference articles to make your case, you should really read them all of the way through.<br /><br />When Matthew Shepard made a pass at one of his assailants, the beating began.
