This post is brave and timely for now, I wonder what the reaction was back when she first said it.<br /><br />And yes I did hear about the Rutgers thing, and the bullying incidents in the news as well. Sad and shocking.<br /><br />Being an out gay man, comfortable in my &#39;out&#39; life, so much of the hatred is foreign to me, certainly the violence is, though many of us including me have had family and friends walk away from our lives due to homophobia. Is always shocking. The Rutgers incident was beyond that. Beyond shocking. I too am following it in disbelief!Brahm (alfred lives here)http://www.blogger.com/profile/11883394577835241921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-53094206150049526142010-10-01T16:24:59.988-06:002010-10-01T16:24:59.988-06:00That is well said! This post is tragically timely. I don&#39;t know if you heard about a terrible incident at Rutgers University where a gay student was videotaped with another man without his knowledge by his roommate and it was broadcast online. The poor kid killed himself.<br />I was so saddened by the story and absolutely outraged by the heinous comments that followed it on Yahoo where i read it. Running in the liberal circles that I do, i had no idea that there was still so much intolerance and outright hatred toward gays out there. I feel like our country and society has actually gone backwards in its progress on this.<br />Just had to share.Saucy Bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16260245350148530500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134830813707647265.post-66303591004050224722010-09-30T22:07:03.196-06:002010-09-30T22:07:03.196-06:00Wow.
