LGBT youth suicide CARL JOSEPH WALKER-HOOVER

[Miikaika25]

Carl was not gay!! why does everyone want to put him in a LGBT group when all that was ever said about him is that he acted like a girl?? I've know guys who act like girls but grew up to be straight, not to mention he was only 9! being 9 and acting like a girl doesn't mean he was gay!

You know something for those bullies who have constantly taunted this poor. Id like to see them in person so I can give em a massive painful beating with an inch of their lives to see how it feels.

Im no vigilante but I went through the same thing he did in middle school.

Thank god my parents taught me to love EVERYONE unconditionally, regardless of anything. There is no room for hate in this world, and yet we see it all the time. Thank you for fighting for this.

and this happend all because of all the homophobes in our society, if he was or wasnt gay shouldnt matter

[lilanaxo]

@sandynikkicarol exactly, homosexuality is not the issue here, as it is not clear as to whether the young man was gay or not (and he was so young he probably did not know himself) but the fact that there is such hatred toward homosexuality and homoesexual people. homophobia is the disease. we should cure homophobia and stop trying to cure homosexuality.

the boy wasn't gay he was taunted because he was sensitive

[lilanaxo]

i understand. but isn't it sad that our society teaches boys that not only is it wrong to be sensitive, but that sensitivity is equated with homosexuality and thus needs to be ridiculed to the extent that young boys kill themselves? we need to teach our children acceptance. we need to teach our boys that violence is not what makes someone a "man". and we need to teach acceptance of differences-- including sexual orientation.

[lilanaxo]

@halliezmandy he was taunted because he was sensitive which indicates that he was taunted for exhibiting a non-masculine quality which caused other guys to question his masculinity and thus his heterosexuality. this just shows how deep the issue of homophobia is. it is a part of a much greater issue in our society which is gender socialization in which there are certain norms that we are forced to maintain ourselves in based on our perceived gender...

This is a very powerful video! My heart goes out to the Walker Hoover and Herrera families. It's sad that in this day and age people STILL have such hate and intolerance in their hearts.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
