Bullying and slandering a homosexual person - or any person for that matter - is indeed deeply hateful. But merely disagreeing with homosexuality is not.
Born just 4 months before me Matthew was bright, energetic, motivated, friendly and kind. For that he was beaten, kicked, pistol whipped, tied to a cattle fence with his own shoe laces, robbed and left to die. Matthew's parents asked the courts to show mercy on his murders where they did not show it to him. Rest his body upon this earth, fix his memory with-in your mind and shelter his family in your heart.
Is heterosexuality also something a person DOES rather than being something a person IS? IOW, if a man or woman dies a virgin, having never had any sort of sexual contact with anyone, does this prove that person was NOT heterosexual? Because I happen to know of gay people who live their whole lives in a self-imposed closet, never acting on any of their attractions, but they are still gay and/or homosexual.
People need to show a little bit of respect for him... if you have a problem with gays... don't look this up. Grow up and have some respect for the dead and go post your narrow minded bigotry somewhere else... or just don't post it at all. (See it's fun to use your brain!) R.I.P. Matthew... you're in our hearts and will never ever be forgotten. <3
Well, like I said I understand your argument, but with my experience within the LGBT community I guess I feel a lot of them were born that way, but I do understand what you're arguing and I agree with you to an extent. I think with this argument, it's a never ending one... so a lot of times you have to agree to disagree. I know a lot of people can get nasty too. People have gotten nasty with me and I'm the least homophobic person you'll ever meet... it's a very emotionally charged debate.
Well, okay... then I'm sorry, I guess. And I was listening to something on the radio, some talk show thing and I heard they actually prefer the term gay, and a lot of my friends do as well. And I suppose I would agree with it's something they do, but people are born that way. I know science doesn't back it up and all that... but it doesn't make sense for someone to choose to be gay, because they would be choosing to be discriminated against. I didn't wake up today and choose to be
@oddtreenow2 If you have a problem with gays, then stop looking this stuff up. Matthew was a victim, plain and simple. I get what you're saying to a point... but I was paying my respects to Matthew, I didnt really ask what anyone's views on gay rights/ gay rights activists were... quite frankly because I don't really care.
For all of those who hate and fear others I can only pray for you. I can only pray you find peace within your hearts because I know that hate comes from insecurity. RIP Matthew, we miss you, and I know you're in a better place, you didn't deserve what happened to you.
@addisontymez your hate is a far greater hell then Matt Shepard will ever experience....hell is created by minds like yours......and for as long as you hold on to it you will be burning from the inside out!!!
You know i cried watching this video! How people are so closed minded and believe so much in their own hate that they havent stopped to realize that an actual human being has died? Its a shame that people will put so small a thing on an individual! Matthew was a good, loving, caring man who did not deserve what happened! Blindness just makes me plain sick is all I can say! It really does!
WE'VE GOTTA MAKE THEM STOP TO HURTING US SIMPLY FOR BEING WHO WE WERE BORN TO BE... GOD'S CREATED US HOMOSEXUALS AND NO MORTAL BEING HAS THE RIGHT TO DESTROY OUR LIVES AT ALL!!!
WATCH THIS VIDEO CAREFULLY THEN POST A COMMENT TO STOP HATE CRIMES EVERYWHERE NOW!!!
Bit random but has anyone seen the BBC film Merlin? There's a scene where the evil queen mab is being her usual evil self, and they all turn their backs on her. She asks Merlin what he's doing and he says "You can't fight us or frighten us you're just...not important enough anymore." She demands they look at her, but they just leave, peacefully. I really don't know why, but that scene just jumped into my head...I guess it just seems appropriate.
for all the people that say god hates fags why don't you question that statement casue we say that god loves EVERYBODY that includes blacks,whites,hispanics,murders,drug addicts, saying that god loves everybody but gays makes it sound like god is a hypocrit so think before you speak next time you haters
George Aiken said " If we wake up some MORNING and find out that every1 was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other causes of prejudice by NOON". Meaning people just look for stupid excuses to perpetrate Hate.
RIP MATTHEW. God loves you most!! I wish you came into a better world!
MAY THOSE FILTHY HATEFUL BLOODSUCKING MAGGOTS WHO KILLED YOU ROT IN HELL & SUFFER ETERNALLY!!! JEEZ I'M SO PISSED!! TOO YOUNG TO BE GONE~HE WAS *FIRST* HUMAN* LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.
Does anyone notice how pathetic and very ALIKE those protesters are? The stupid thing is that they say "FAGS SHOULD DIE" & FAGS GO TO HELL but where does any religious, fictitious or factual book say that *GAYS SHOULD BE KILLED*?? I though vengeance was for God? This just shows that it is all in the MIND and these bloodsuckers just feel the need to perpetuate HATE!
Does this mean that i can go kill that FAT UGLY FEMALE PROTESTER AND SAY *GOD HATES SLOTHS*?? It does says so in the bible!
I have had 3 friends brutally murdered by homophobic bastards..none of whom got very long sentences...some were as young as 14 when they kicked and stamped David Morely to death on Londons South Bank (and he survived the bombing of the Admiral Duncan Gay Bar in london a few years before...saving lives in that atrocity!!)...so this song/film and story touchesme deeply....I no longer have any tolerance for religion or fucked up 'str8s'...or justice....hit first and hard ........
For those of you with nothing but hate and fear in your hearts, ask yourself how many people will walk the streets in celebration of your life after you are gone. I hope that you find peace wherever it is that you are going.
@pitbulllover74 - Matthew Shepard did not molest any kids as I'm sure you are aware. Why bother being polite: you are a pointless, mindless, shit stirring piece of redneck trash - the vast majority of child rapists (97%) are heterosexual males. I'm sure you are only too 'familiar.' Normally I wouldn't lower myself to comment on the likes of you.
Matt was a hero which is not the least bit suprising since both of his parents are as well. As for the ignorant bigots who have nothing but hate in their heart, they know WE are winning! Soon, the world will recognize their terrorism and hate just like that of the Klan - EVIL. Worse yet, it is evil done in the name of God - they Hate someone who knew only Love. These are the antichrists of the world - but good will overcome their bigotry and hatred. God help the bigots to understand!
I am sure, in the end all will be judged. And the ones, who don't care, love and respect will have many questions and fears in the end, when they have to leave this Word. So much suffer and pain, You must have had.
Only You know.....
Never seen or known You, but feeling close, also to Judy and Dennis.
May God have mercy on your evil soul where there is no presence from Him who is love. You have only hate and deception and we all know from where it comes!
fuck gay rights they have as much rights as my dog, yup thats right if they get loud ill stick a boot up there ass... the difference is the fag likes when i do that,
what a sad motherfucking specimen.. why the hell is america making such a big fuss about some scrawny queer faggot who most likely contributed to the spread of AIDS? fuck this guy, i hope he's enjoying hell as satan fucks him in the ass with a steamy hot pitchfork
Karma has a way of dealing with the evils of the world , may you rest in peace Matthew you didint deserve to die so horribly , i'm sure the angels are looking after you now god bless xx
while these videos are beautiful and i'm sure it's reassuring for the families to know how many people will remember how disgusting this case was, it's also a shame that there are so many homophobic people waiting for videos like these to be made so that tey can be shocking and hateful to rattle some cages. along with everything else, it's not original, it's a little pathetic.
i WANT AN AUTOGRAPHED PEICE OF THE CATTLE FENCE THE FAGGOT DIED ON SIGNED BY HIS MURDERERS. MATT SHEPERED WAS A PEICE OF SHIT.............THIS FAGGOT DESERVED EVERYTHING HE GOT.HAHAHAHAHA
Having created several tribute videos myself, I know how hard it is to do these kind of videos without having your heart break over and over as you put the various clips together. Very good job with a great tribite. Rest in peace, Matthew Shepard. You have been not been forgotten.
Thanks Parker for sent this sad touching song about this horrible subject MURDER of homosexuals or others which r different by EVIL a..s, STUPID a..es an and FUCKING BASTARDS!!!
God rest his soul! All of us should be much better with people around us and help them if we can and to try to glad for every new day and to be happy. There are much more important problems in our life, like diseases, or jobs, then sexual orientation of us.
God Bless Matthew & his still grieving family & friends. I have to believe he did not die alone, that in his final moments he transcended his pain & found a healing grace & peace. Certainly the beauty of his spirit still inspires us, & moves us closer to tolerance, acceptance & LOVE.
This was a crime to satisfy the sexual gratification of 2 so called straight men.The fact they never recieved the death penalty merely demonstrates the life of a gay man is less than a straight one. I hope they end up picking up the soap in the prison shower every day for the rest of their miserable sad shallow evil empty christian life. The true show of strength was the parents of Mathew. Mathew, you may have passed, but your suffering and memory lives on.
@ukmike --Aaron McKinney, one of the two brought to trial for the murder of Matthew Shepard was facing the death penalty. Dennis Shepard, Matthew's father, asked for a sentence of life imprisonment instead. In a very moving statement to the court he said, in part, that it was time to begin the healing process. He asked for mercy for McKinney in the name of one who was shown no mercy and that McKinney remember every day of his life that he is alive because of one who no longer is.
you aren't going to convince a christian they're wrong and i'm not going to try to convince anyone i'm right. my point from the begining was that it is a terrible shame that matthew was killed because people think they are better than him when really everybody has faults just as much as he does!!!!
okay frankly i could care less whether someones gay or not. i am sick of people telling me i'm a terrible person because it's against my religion. girls have vaginas for a reason. it's so a guy can put his dick there......god created us with parts that fit together in the opposite sex. and by the way i never said i'm against gays.i'm not. and for heaven's sake why do atheists keep wasting time and energy on something they don't even believe exists. just stop wasting my time and yours.
Girls have vagina's so men can screw them? what a ridiculous argument, I guess you think rape is ok and natural then? I dont recall Jesus ever making use of a vagina, but I do recall him spending his time with 12 male disciples,,, you do the maths!
what an amazing video! Its so sad what happened to him all over his sexual preference! that shouldnt matter to ppl he was an awesome person..what is it to someone what ppl do in their private lives? i wish that one day glbt ppl will b treated just like any straight person an have the rights as we do..b/c its not fair that u cant marry the one u love an have it be legal like i can..its not fair and it has to change..NOW!!
A young man's life was taken away, his future denied. A family lies brokenhearted, devastated. A community has lost one of it's citizens. Does not the bible say THOU SHALL NOT KILL: DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE DONE UNTO YOU: LET HE WHO HAS NOT SINNED CAST THE FIRST STONE? There was only one sin here MURDER. How dare anyone excuse that horrid action?
If you truly obeyed the rules in Exodus, you'd stone your children who disobey you and avoid all contact with all women on their period, have you READ the bible, you can't just 'pick and choose' what rules you want to stick with - we have science to explain things now, we don't need the bible to anymore.
THE bible not my bible, does not consider love a sin. Christians are taught to love everybody, but romantic love is supposed to be between a man and a woman. homosexuality is the part that is unholy. but don't think that means i see it as a completely terrible thing. i am a christian but i try not to judge and see everyone equally despite their religion, race, or sexual orientation.
13mlc314, if your religion limits the amount of love shared while we're here on this planet, if its between you and somone else or between other people, you might start to wonder if you are really worshipping a god, or if you are worshipping evil.
unbelievable....people standing there with signs saying fags go to hell.....what happened to love thy neighbor. what about finding the wrongs in yourself before pointing out someone else's faults. we're all sinners. only those who don't have a relationship with God go to hell. no sin is bigger than any other. people don't realize that being jealous of someones car is just as big a sin as homosexuality. all they are is a bunch of hypocrites....who have sinned just as much if not more than matt.
You're disgusting. Do you know that? They sinned "just as much if not more than matt"? Homosexuality isn't a "sin", you self-righteous ass. Neither is jealousy for that matter. Natural human emotions aren't something people should be made to feel ashamed about. Acting upon feelings which cause you to hurt others is bad. But being human is not.
Homosexuality is a sin, by the Bible. I'm not religious at all but by the Bible's standards it is a sin, whether you agree with it or not. Your beliefs are not higher than anyone else's you should stop arguing with that pretense.
Bullshit. Are you suggesting that my belief we should not kill people is equal to the belief that we should? Or that my belief we should have equal rights is equal to the belief we shouldn't? I'm sorry but that's utter bullshit.
You will never get your head around what my point is because you are so deeply indoctrinated with your self-righteous attitude that your ways are higher than other people's ways. You are lost in your own prison.
My morality is better than that of the Bible, as is yours and as is almost anyone alive today. People who need primitive books to govern their lives are the prisoners, if you choose to use such an annoying metaphor.
To stone people to death? by who's perception? are you asking my personal opinion which includes the way I was indoctrinated? or are you saying universally is it moral?
No I do not. I answer this question under the power of the United States Human Rights ideology. However, it is conditional in my opinion. If in other cultures it is "right" to stone people to death, have a blast.
So far you're doing better than the Bible when it comes to morality. But surely you could have decided this for yourself without a document of human rights to tell you it's wrong?
"But surely you could have decided this for yourself without a document of human rights to tell you it's wrong?" No you could not. I did not invent human rights. Another thing... why do you feel it necessary to call someone stupid or be a smart mouthed 18 year old punk at the end of your claim? don't do it, it makes your argument look weaker.
Ah right and adding your little insults at your arguements make yours so much superior. This is the Internet, neither of us are adhering to any strict debating rules or even fantastic manners.
You are not understanding the fact that you create your own realities. Put your instruments down and pick up a book, then come talk to me. I'm done for now.
Don't worry, I won't be chasing you up for a conversation any time soon. You're a hypocritical, obnoxious idiot who presents a persona (which I suspect is somewhat false for the sake of being annoying) which is unable to make instinctual decisions without first referring to a document of some description.
If you think being 18, playing instruments, or not being fat takes away from my arguements, I was right from the beginning - you're an asshole who doesn't read the opponent's arguement.
You're the BIGGEST prisoner because you claim to be free of the ideologies that bind other people, meanwhile you make these claims with shackled wrists.
I know what the Bible says and I don't give a crap about it. I put "sin" in quotes so you'd understand I didn't mean the Bible doesn't say that, but rather I meant it is not wrong, regardless of what some daft old book says. Are you stupid on purpose or are you actually trying to make sense?
It is evident by your previous comments that you do not know what the bible says. The word sin is a word almost unanimously attributed to religious wrongdoing. Envy is a sin. It's a HUGE sin. It is one of the 7 DEADLY sins. Just because you don't care about what the Bible says doesn't mean that you have free reign to write revisionist history.
Quotation marks don't mean anything in this context. They do not take away the pure fact that by the standards of the Holy Bible homosexuality is deemed a sin. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. WHETHER YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE. BY THE BIBLE'S PERCEPTION, HOMOSEXUALITY IS CONSIDERED A SIN. Are you saying the bible does NOT consider it a sin?
In that case, you do not understand quotation marks. The Bible considers it a sin. The context of my sentence makes it clear that is not what I was talking about. English is your native language, is it not?
If you want to get bloody pedantic, then fine. You can call it a sin. But that doesn't make it wrong. It makes it wrong in the eyes of primitive people from a long time ago, and people from today who still follow this old nonsense.
okay obviously your aren't a christian. i don't agree with your beliefs but i do respect them. however the fact that you don't believe what the bible says doesn't change what it says. homosexuality is a sin and so is envy. that's what the bible says and i am a believer in that. i could have one discussion after another about this but i know it wouldn't do any good. and by the way i don't have anything against gays. i have gay friends and i love them just as much as my straight friends.
All you people out there who call themselves righteous or blessed or chosen, there is only one path to god which is LOVE and nothing but Love. Îsâ loved everyone, Allah loves everyone, God loves everyone, why can't you!
awesome video..This was a really nice tribute to Matthew. RIP ..these people who kill gays in the name of god ..do they not know the commandments ..thou shalt not kill ,so they will burn in hell.. what goes round comes round
Silence kills in its complicity to killing by treachery.
A bigot doesn't admit to his or her own bigotry because to do so they would feel diminished. And they already feel small. Only people who feel small and weak need to ACT big and tough.
The real cause behind such madness comes from the fear.
This scares them so much that they are emboldened by their fears to bare their flaws.
why can't everyone see the real problems in the world, letting us gays love who we want should be the last problem on the list. We love who we love, we don't choose to be this way, we are who we are and it is about time realize this. We have feelings just like anyone else in the world. How long will it really take for people to realize the things happening to gays are wrong. Matt I know its been almost 11 yrs, but may u rest in peace, and ty for opening peoples eyes to what really is going on!!
try to remember its not really about gays...or race...or whatever one's object of hate may be...it's really about hate...hate comes to them first...then they look for someone to blame...they know not what they do...try not to let haters invate your mind...
damn this shit is sad...the first time i heard it was on the headphones in a borders store...i had to get the fuck out of there cuz it was too much for me to handle...this is a grim reminder of how fucked up the human race has gotten...
I HATE that love the sinner, hate the sin nonsense. I hate it, hate it, hate it. Fuck you. As a gay man, I dont need your acceptance or tolerance or approval. I find it condescending and patronizing. So take your Christian "ideals" of tolerance and go the fuck away.
i am a christian, but the hate that "christian" people showed in the protest, was worse than the criminal guy that killed Matt.Jesus showed so much love and compasion, he came to save ,not to condem...that kind of people only dishonour God with his actions , hate and hipocracy...God hate sin, but love the sinner. He is in charge of the judment
If Jesus appeared in the USA I have no doubt that the Christian Fundamentalists would crucify him all over again. They have corrupted their religion and filled it with hate and prejudice in the same way that the Taliban and Al Qaeda have corrupted the Moslem faith.
no doubt they would be scared of jesus and call him evil and kill him...they dont know what love is...they only know hate and fear...they are scared to death and thats why they are so angry...anger is really fear...
i agree... FAITH has become a picnic at the local church discussing other peoples lives and less about the humanitarian sacrifice... well written mairtiparamita...... hate seems to have become the common thread... god has gone commercial... advertise you issue "here"
Faith isn't corrupted at all - this is what happens if you hold faith in a disgusting, primitive text. If you want to be faithful to the Bible or the Quar'an then you'll punish homosexuals, "heathens", and generally anything which gets in your way.
Fucking hell, it's 2009. Stop embarrassing yourself with religion and move on, humanity.
Excuse me? This boy was killed due to people with primitive mindsets. I promote logic, reason and thinking in general. Had these been employed by everyone, this boy would still be alive today. Yet you think this makes me the bastard? Pull your head out of your ass and learn to think before you speak.
Again, head out of ass please. Read. I said "primitive mindset". Homophobia is primitive. Period. If you're arguing with that, you're the one with the foolish beliefs. However, I reckon that you're just trying to argue for the sake of arguing and you're not even taking the time to read what I say.
i spent years trying to get back what i'd lost...some people spend their whole lives...but it's just not possible...we just have to accept that we have changed and move on...
my god is this not the saddest song ever?...i couldn't help but cry the first time i heard it and i never cry...to me the friend that died was my innocence...i spent 5 years on the streets in california and i lost everything...may i rest in peace...
oh i would also like to mention that wyoming is the best place to live and people should stop thinking were all hateful people i mean for god sakes we're the equality state and im proud of it

Bit random but has anyone seen the BBC film Merlin? There's a scene where the evil queen mab is being her usual evil self, and they all turn their backs on her. She asks Merlin what he's doing and he says "You can't fight us or frighten us you're just...not important enough anymore." She demands they look at her, but they just leave, peacefully. I really don't know why, but that scene just jumped into my head...I guess it just seems appropriate.

George Aiken said " If we wake up some MORNING and find out that every1 was the same race, creed and color, we would find some other causes of prejudice by NOON". Meaning people just look for stupid excuses to perpetrate Hate.
RIP MATTHEW. God loves you most!! I wish you came into a better world!
MAY THOSE FILTHY HATEFUL BLOODSUCKING MAGGOTS WHO KILLED YOU ROT IN HELL & SUFFER ETERNALLY!!! JEEZ I'M SO PISSED!! TOO YOUNG TO BE GONE~HE WAS *FIRST* HUMAN* LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

Does anyone notice how pathetic and very ALIKE those protesters are? The stupid thing is that they say "FAGS SHOULD DIE" & FAGS GO TO HELL but where does any religious, fictitious or factual book say that *GAYS SHOULD BE KILLED*?? I though vengeance was for God? This just shows that it is all in the MIND and these bloodsuckers just feel the need to perpetuate HATE!
Does this mean that i can go kill that FAT UGLY FEMALE PROTESTER AND SAY *GOD HATES SLOTHS*?? It does says so in the bible!

Matt was a hero which is not the least bit suprising since both of his parents are as well. As for the ignorant bigots who have nothing but hate in their heart, they know WE are winning! Soon, the world will recognize their terrorism and hate just like that of the Klan - EVIL. Worse yet, it is evil done in the name of God - they Hate someone who knew only Love. These are the antichrists of the world - but good will overcome their bigotry and hatred. God help the bigots to understand!

This was a crime to satisfy the sexual gratification of 2 so called straight men.The fact they never recieved the death penalty merely demonstrates the life of a gay man is less than a straight one. I hope they end up picking up the soap in the prison shower every day for the rest of their miserable sad shallow evil empty christian life. The true show of strength was the parents of Mathew. Mathew, you may have passed, but your suffering and memory lives on.

@ukmike --Aaron McKinney, one of the two brought to trial for the murder of Matthew Shepard was facing the death penalty. Dennis Shepard, Matthew's father, asked for a sentence of life imprisonment instead. In a very moving statement to the court he said, in part, that it was time to begin the healing process. He asked for mercy for McKinney in the name of one who was shown no mercy and that McKinney remember every day of his life that he is alive because of one who no longer is.

THE bible not my bible, does not consider love a sin. Christians are taught to love everybody, but romantic love is supposed to be between a man and a woman. homosexuality is the part that is unholy. but don't think that means i see it as a completely terrible thing. i am a christian but i try not to judge and see everyone equally despite their religion, race, or sexual orientation.

You're disgusting. Do you know that? They sinned "just as much if not more than matt"? Homosexuality isn't a "sin", you self-righteous ass. Neither is jealousy for that matter. Natural human emotions aren't something people should be made to feel ashamed about. Acting upon feelings which cause you to hurt others is bad. But being human is not.

It is evident by your previous comments that you do not know what the bible says. The word sin is a word almost unanimously attributed to religious wrongdoing. Envy is a sin. It's a HUGE sin. It is one of the 7 DEADLY sins. Just because you don't care about what the Bible says doesn't mean that you have free reign to write revisionist history.

Quotation marks don't mean anything in this context. They do not take away the pure fact that by the standards of the Holy Bible homosexuality is deemed a sin. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. WHETHER YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE. BY THE BIBLE'S PERCEPTION, HOMOSEXUALITY IS CONSIDERED A SIN. Are you saying the bible does NOT consider it a sin?
XforeverlongingX 2 years ago

It does make it wrong. By the standards of the christian bible it is wrong. By YOUR standards it is NOT wrong. What is so complicated here?

okay obviously your aren't a christian. i don't agree with your beliefs but i do respect them. however the fact that you don't believe what the bible says doesn't change what it says. homosexuality is a sin and so is envy. that's what the bible says and i am a believer in that. i could have one discussion after another about this but i know it wouldn't do any good. and by the way i don't have anything against gays. i have gay friends and i love them just as much as my straight friends.

Silence kills in its complicity to killing by treachery.
A bigot doesn't admit to his or her own bigotry because to do so they would feel diminished. And they already feel small. Only people who feel small and weak need to ACT big and tough.
The real cause behind such madness comes from the fear.
This scares them so much that they are emboldened by their fears to bare their flaws.
