Any event which highlights LBGT bullying,especially in schools can only be a good thing.But I fail to see how a 'Day of Silence' would make a difference.Surely being silent is exactly what the homophobes/bigots would like,for us all to be silent,permanently! But nor do I see how fighting bullying with violence,(as someone here suggested),can be of any help.
This is fucking stupid. Day of silence never works in my community, nor does it work anywhere else. Teenagers live in a world of angst, it's high time you stopped being such pussies and fought bullies by sticking a finger over your mouth and shuttingtfu and punch them in the goddamn face. That's how you counter a bully, you fight the fuck back, and if they keep coming after you, guess what? YOU KEEP FIGHTING!
Not to be a troll or anything, but can you explain to me what you mean by day of silence? Are we promoting to keep quiet? Shouldn't it be the day that we stand up and voice our opinions about open sexuality and use our voices to stop bullying? I had a discussion with a few friends about this because I don't quite get how it effects anyone if we remain silent... So isn't it contradicting that you the motto is "How will you end the silence?" when it's called Silence Day?
I participated in this today, but I didn't really understand what is was exactly. All i knew was that it was to support those who choose to be gay, lesbian, bi or transgender. And now that i've been getting more information on this all i have to say is wow. I'm sure glad that I did what I did today. It's definetely something I'm going to be thinking about more often... and certainly supporting it too.

Great job to make silence day succesful. The next day of silence will be on April 21st to save our football season. Everday fans are silenced by greedy owners and players of the NFL. on April 21st no matter if you are fans of Steelers or Cowboys, Vikings or Packers, Jets or Giants. We will demand our season back. So please on shut the hell up, it shows you care.
@gr8phuk The point is for 1 day, get people to BE silent, and get attention about the cause. Words don't always solve everything. I sat through the entire day listening to people ask me "whats the point in the silence? Why are you doing this? Hows silence stoping anything?" Its to show suport. Raise these questions about the cause. And plus, Its fun. To try and not talk all day, handing out cards and using hand signals to say what you want without words. Maybe if you try it, youd get it more.
@angiegreen1 I get why they're doing it, but bullying is already at the forefront of topics people are talking about, but there's no one really DOING anything constructive about it, and, the silence only creates more silence.
Awareness is great, but what brings more attention to this is creating solutions and merging alliances with teachers and schools and outside sources that can oversee the broader problem of bullying.
For supporting me and my friends who are everyday silenced by gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and more harrasment. I'm participating in this today beause I am a straight, androgonous "gay enabeling" student who belives that everyone deserves to be heard and the people at my school are going to break this silence - One day it will happen, and I'm going to try to bring it to reality in my lifetime.
I Chose to participate in this today. I am straight but i am taking a vow of silence for all of my gay and lesbian friends and fam. We will break the silence. Our unspoken voices will be heard!!
I chose to partake in this, I'm also glad my school does this, despite how defiled my school is. I can't wait til tomorrow :) I'm definitely staying silent because I have a voice that will be heard amongst all the others and that's like the best feeling, knowing that your adding to a great cause. Plus, I can't believe this got dislikes. The discrimination just won't stop, but our voices will be heard! :D
Please don't come here and hate on the event.This is a good cause and for people who think that it's immature, well, you're the immature one. If you weren't, you wouldn't care that people are doing this. People don't be afraid for who you are. If you are LGBT then don't be scared about it. The people who still appreciate you even though you are, are the only people that matter. If they only like you if you're not, then the
I'm participating in the Day of Silence. I am secretly bi-sexuall and very afraid to come out about it. Several other friends of mine are participating aswell. I find this a great, peaceful, way to try to get the message across. And to all of those out there who thinks thisis stupid, Fuck. Off. We don't care that you don't care. Alright? So, just back off.
They are not going to "take action", they are going to immaturely give people the silent treatment. Really, I thought that was something you outgrew in 5th grade, and now you are making it into some sort of statement?
Also, good job yelling at bystanders for being silent, then organizing a day where everyone is a bystander.
LOL. More perversion in the united states and the destruction of the once beautiful white christian civilization to worship these disgusting abominations and encourage it, and its not to bring about justice or equality but its done by corrupt anti-white government people who are aiming at destroying white America with this filthy fucking Marxist scum
@JoanBeatrington001 You are correct,..all is going well according to the Zionist plans.....Thats ok,it will come to a head pretty soon,& it will be every man for himself,and most of the people watching this will wind up in a FEMA camp,..dont believe me?..search "REX84" on here & see what their plans for you are...ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,
Why does Lance "take it up the" bASS feel the need to puch his immorality on the rest of us. Freedom of thought is the greatest virtue to humans, why would anyone want to restrict that? Homosexuals are nice people but that doesn't mean society should change their views and laws to cater to their behavior.
@rapolitical The law does not have to be changed to cater to other people's behavior, but the laws should be changed to allow people the freedoms to marry who they love and to eliminate all forms of discrimination.
@jettpax marraige is a christian (or religious) creation. One cannot take someones creation and change the rules of it. Come up with your own creation. You and others like you do not feel justified in your behavior so you want the rest of society to come down to your level so you can 'Feel' good about yourself. Develope your own sense of worth and/or belonging don't seek it from others. Good luck
@rapolitical Incorrect... Marriage existed LONG before Christianity ever existed. The institution of marriage pre-dates reliable recorded history. Each culture on this planet has a different way for people to be married. If you had any reliable education beyond that sand-pit you hid your head in, you'd know this.
Ok listen, all of you Homosexual twisted supporters. IT IS WRONG. It defies GOD AND NATURE. There is no arguement, it is wrong, It will always be WRONG. It's so sad hollywood and the media is making this shameful way to live acceptable in the poor children's eyes. It is so wrong! No questions asked. I will do everything in my power till the day I die to end this homosexuality nonsense.
@ItalianDude000 Alright, if you think it's so wrong then explain to me one thing. Why did it happen? If this supposed "god" that most believe in exists and SUPPOSEDLY hates gays then why are they still here? All the religious people contradict their beliefs when they say that god loves all and then turn around and say that god wants every gay man alive to be dead. And when I say man, I mean mankind in general not just men. It's people like you that make me worry about the future of the earth.
@ItalianDude000 i love how your belief in God teaches you to despise a group of people. practice what your God teaches. which im guessing is tolerance and 'love'. im not gay, but i have nothing against ANY group of people we're all humans and that is enough to call the person next to you brother/sister. What makes you so right? Luke 6:37 shove that bible verse down your throat buddy . GOD bless you.
@BIGTEDDY818 Homosexuality does not belong is this world, it defies the laws of nature. People are just so damn sexually deviant these days, they will have intercourse with anything including children! Society needs to re-evaluate themselves and supress this "LGBT" community. I don't hate the "LGBT" community, I just dont like what they do and support. And yes you are correct, we are all humans, lets START ACTING LIKE HUMANS and everyone be straight like we were designed to be.
@ItalianDude000 lol yo im not trying to start a flame war here but id really like to know where your learning these "laws of nature". and i suppose jesus walked up to you one day and told you that being straight is how we were designed to be, right?
@rpgmaster113 Well all these atheists that believe that this is no God, and therefore therefore there is no morale code is a bunch of bull. The "laws of nature" are to pro-create. So if they are trying to defend their choice by saying that it's ok because God isn't real, therefore I have no morale standards to adhere by, then nature is are the next real laws to abide by. You see no form of sexuality with animals (besides the rare cases only because there is something wrong with those animals)
@ItalianDude000 alright, i think i can solve the war going on between you and the other people that you talking with here or atleast try to help you comprimise with 'empeacefully. all i need to know is your age really, i can probably fix just about every flame war here by simply knowing different peoples ages. please be honest and if your not comfortable with other people knowing your age then feel free to say no, or tell me via PM.
No man, woman, or even a god should have the right to damn a being for loving the same sex. I always get this, "God curses you" when I walk down the hall way, or even in a store. But in the bible, there is homosexuality. They call us names, and spit venom. Yet, what makes them any better? You don't see us going around calling them straighties, or something. My name Is Alexandria, and I am a Lesbian. I support GLBT rights.
Action is a great many thing, like handing out cards with information explaining why your silent for the day.
Speaking is done with more than verbal words, shown by the very ACTION of me typing, see what I did there?
Doing, well hell that is just like acting! I am, by participating in the day of silence, bringing attention to that silence, and when people ask why, or try to figure it out, I either give out, or leave information for people to READ
@eventheinnocent This is similar to how Gandhi protested. Getting in people's faces and telling them how wrong they are and what they need to change is not always the best way to get things done.
Some times pacifism gets more done than action. Some times being quiet gets more attention than being loud. This is a brilliant and positively creative.
@jettpax pacifism is very different from non action. Gandhi got half a million people walking to the beach to get salt (which was illegal ), your proposing people be quiet. its a bad idea, if you get 500 people chained up in a public place with duct tape on there mouths, that would send a message, if you tell a bunch of people to be quiet for a day, your doing nothing. Gandhi protested peacefully, your advocating non action. i must continue to disagree with this truly bad idea.
@PhilliesGURL530 During the day of silence, participating individuals do not speak for the day, which can end at your discression. Some people are silent until the next day, some will stay silent until after school/work and than do somthing while ending the silence (yelling, going out for pizza, whatever).
During your silence, you either hand out info, or direct people to info, on the day of silence, showing your silent to bring attention to those forced into silence.
"what are you going to do to end the silance" um lol how is being silent going to solve anything and wow "hundreds of students are going to participate" i think you need just a tad more...
@TheMusiclove93 oh i'm sorry..and who says i'm not in north korea struggling for every right that exists? who says i'm not an afghanistan woman being denied a bounty of rights? there are bigger problems in this world sir. stop whining and start with the priorities.
@k10sstar as any decent member of the psychological or social work fields know, there is no hierarchy of oppression when PROPERLY treating it. Unfortunetly, people like you tell others their cause isn't bad enough. As I tell many people, if the only people who could every complain or find a problem were those who had it the worst, than there would only be a handful of people fighting for anything.
@k10sstar Straight people don't have to struggle every day to not get their asses kicked and even killed because they are straight. I do however, believe that straight people should have a "Straight Pride" day. There's nothing wrong with that, as long as it's not just a hateful thing toward GLBTQ people.
@k10sstar There are a few groups GSA (Gay Straight Allinace), BGLSA (Bi, Gay, Lesbian, Straight Aliance) These groups DO include us straight people. The folks who commented above are right in some part that gay people are struggling to have the same rights as us. They don't get to marry or be recognized as a committed couple legally, they are forced out of waiting rooms of loved ones because they are not blood relatives. It's wrong how gay people are treated and we need to stand up for them
Wow seems pretty anti-productive... hey guys all these gay people need to be silent so they don't get bullied sooo lets have a day where no one talks cause its going to solve everything by being so unproductive for a day... worst idea ever. I am all for people becoming more accepting of other but as far as children being unproductive in class due to lack of participation from not talking I don't agree with/
@Corporis People can still be productive in class, there is more to school than talking for sure. However I feel like many people are missing the point, it isn't JUST being silent, and that isn't meant to fix everything. It is giving out information and directing people to what the day of silence is about, either with info cards, or telling them about it the next day.
It is meant to bring attention to the silence, not be the one and only force to fix it. That is what comes AFTER awareness..
amazing. Im straight but know gay people who are harrased and teased. My ex broke up with me because he THOUGHT i called him gay. I felt terriable and i still do every day when i see him in the hallways. He is a great guy and i still love him (as a friend) and one day hopes he knows i would never do that. I plan to show him 2marrow by being silent all hours. Hope he 4gives. but i relized its so hurtful and can can a bad affect on everyone to tease or bully about gays. Its not cool. Dont do it.
@kboy71 Wow, you're really mean. What exactly have they done to you? They "deserve" to be bullied just as much as the Jews "deserved" to be slaughtered. Hitler would be proud of you, prick.
@kboy71 What are you? Some kind of Neo-Nazi? The Jews did NOT cause World War 1! All of the assassinations in Europe are what triggered World War 1 you retard! Get your facts straight before you go being racist on the internet. Go back to hell where you belong!
A week left for DOS 2010 (: I am very excited. Last year, I got called names. Some of my friends were harassed and violently approached. But, we got through it. There's always going to be someone who speaks against it, that's a given. We can make it, though. Their cruel words only show others what we are fighting for. We know we are fighting for a good cause. We know we are doing nothing wrong. And nothing they say can change that truth. (: Good luck, everyone!
People are so ignorant. I am straight, and I am doing the National Day of Silence with my school. If you don't like gays, don't talk to them. And, no Christians don't hate gays. At my church, there is a gay boy and no one cares.
If you do not agree don't participate. It is as simple as that. I am a straight woman standing up for what I believe is right. you respect me I will respect you.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
we are all bullied for one reason or another, this is no different. Gay people are not special and we should not feel sorry for them being bullied....any more than the rest of us....
@ColeFierceFaggot It's not just about "criticism" dude. Last week I got a glass bottle thrown at me from a car window so hard that it broke on impact. And I live in a place that is supposed to be fairly tame. You call that kind of shit "criticism?"
im a bi girl. and I felt alot of hurt that you said that. I've gotten so much hate and lost "friends" I assure you it isn't easy being any kind of Gay.
i have multiple friends who choose to live an alternative life style, i back them up and support them 110%, my parents also live this way, i have two mothers, i love them with all my heart and i dont care what anyone has to say about it, instead of hating about it, they need to get their facts straight and accept them for who they are, not what they are
thats crazy!!!!!!! people are told its immoral, according to me, but you do what ever you want just dont change my laws to accommodate your fetishes. and thats called anti-gay. see thats funny cause when i say, im christian, i get "your a bigot, racist, sexist etc... maybe you should celebrate your day of silence by actually being silent and not being a bunch of friggin hypocrites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well..seeing that i have homosexual family members but i am not homosexual myself, i have enough common sense know that i do not feel what they feel even though i have conversations with them about the issue. and...i do accept your apologies sir
I came out of the closet the day after this. I participated, and the people who did got a lot of shit. I made it though the day, with the help of my friends and the others who participated.(: The teachers had an awful time, and I was surprised that a lot of them just sat back when awful names were being tossed the whole day; faggot, dyke, freak....
Stupid! I won't be silenced. Homosexuals are disgusting. The bible says no HOMOSEXUAL shall inherit the kingdom of GOD. Just goes to show you how the government is trying to teach our children that its okay to be GAY. DISGUISTING
"...the government is trying to teach our children that it's* OK* to be gay.*"
I want you to listen to this, and listen clearly; religion and state are separate. Shall I enforce Islam on you, and other families, forcing them to abide by what the Koran says? America is a country with freedom of religion, which is protected by the government, not forcing your religious beliefs on the rest of us. You are a bigot, you are a homophobe, and you are a dying species.
we can only hope that they are a dying species. But that kind of thing is what day of silence is about. it shows people like that that not just the 'fags' support gays. it shows them that its NOT OK to bully, tease, and discriminate. :D thank you all DOS-ers!
@BestJaxx: The government is not sponsoring this ad. The non-profit organization, the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network (GLSEN) is sponsoring the ad.
The U.S. Constitution's First Amendment's right of freedom of speach gives GLSEN the right to post this video and spread its words via all types of media.
Maybe you should organize an out-of-school thing so that the school can't stop you. Tell people about it and gather at your house, someone else's house or a public place where you can all meet. If the school doesn't want a Gay-Straight Alliance, make one that they can't stop.
No it's to stop people like you, so other's wont get hurt. I took a stand today for the ones took their life or had it taken. W/e you're selfish like the rest go look at beyonce shake her a** or something or spongebob because some people's brains are like queefs. To: vitralizer and others alike.
i participated in this today... there is so much hate toward GLBT people. i see the reason they protest. i'm strait, and i participate every year. today i was called faggot, queer, flamer, any name you can think of. it was terrible. the hate has to stop!
Tysodag? What? Dont complain? Sorry, but you need to educate yourself.
The point is, in this DAY, which should not be on the school campus(political agendas should not be in school) because it creates a sense of being uncomfortable(hostile) for those who don't want to participate and feel obligated to do so, just by the peer pressure of it. So....someone else is just supposed to 'take it' at their expense? That is wrong in so many ways. Christian persecution? Would you be SILENT for that?
I think *you* need to be "educated." Ever heard of a little court case called "Tinker v. Des Moines?" Perhaps you should look it up. Whatever your opinion may be, Day of silence is completely legal and protected by law.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
LOL...as a teacher, I know full well what it was. Thanks again for comparing this to homosexuality. Its ridiculous. This was about disagreeing with Vietnam. That is/was in no way making a whole damn school a "captive" audience as with the DOS. I find it funny all the students LOOK up ways to justify their means. Vietnam was senseless. Wearing arm bands is one thing, but making the whole damn school feel OBLIGATED to one certain group is another. Want respect? Give it! Simple! Make it for ALL!
You have some serious issues! Judging by your comments on other videos and speaking so frank about your bodily functions...you have some growin' up to do, yet!
You know, for every finger you point, you have four more pointing right back at you.
Equality? Yes, it should be a day of silence for ALL who are bullied. Segregation is a thing of past, lets keep it that way, shall we?
so you think the issue makes a difference? if you're a teacher you know there is something called a "precedent" then don't you? well in that course case it was ruled that symbolic FREEDOM OF SPEECH is protected.
how is day of silence disrespectful? you're out of your mind. day of silence is a PEACEFUL *cough* SILENT *cough* protest! You're going out of your own way to feel offended on your own.
I know the case dear. Really, I do. Course case? I think you mean COURT case. I know what freedom of speech is. Know it perfectly well when I marched because of what happened to Matt Shepard. Oh yes, I did. Notice though, I did so because he was a human being, not just because he was gay. You are out of YOUR mind if you think holding a captive audience is right. Its not. I never said it was disrespectful young lady. NOW YOU are putting words in MY mouth.
and you basically implied that day of silence was "disrespectful" when you said "want respect? give it!" which i don't understand at all. how is day of silence different from any other protest?
I guess I should have been more creative in my words. What I mean by respect, is basically......being tolerant. Being tolerant of others who may not feel as you do. A lot of ppl spew the word tolerance, and have no clue what being tolerant really is. If ppl, ANY ppl want respect and tolerance, they must learn to give it as well. If anyone makes anyone feel uncomfortable for going against their beliefs, I feel that it is wrong to make them a captive audience.
In todays society, if one does not fully align themselves with one side, ie: gay agenda, right or left, they are considered intolerant or a bigot. Those words are tossed around so liberally that no one knows what a REAL bigot is. Just because someone does not accept homosexuality, does not make them a bigot. There is a difference. I, personally, can tolerate just about anything, but that does not mean I have to accept as true for my life. I hope that makes sense.
i don't consider myself 'right' or 'left'... well to tell you the truth, i still don't understand why you are offended by the day of silence. I feel like you're going out of your way to be offended for no reason at all. Day of silence is a peacful protest. No one is being forced to do anything. It's not like we're trying to make you gay. Maybe you're just no familiar with what it really is. Day of silence is protesting violence and harrassment against LGBT youth on school campus.
lol i dont' think you can make anyone gay either. but for some reason i hear a lot of ill-informed people thinking that pro-lgbt gay rights organizations is out to make our society "more homosexual" ... ridiculous, i know.
What you are failing to understand, because you dont seem to have an open mind (proves the hypocrisy with those who SAY they are tolerant, but really are not) is that this is a captive audience. Do you understand what that is? I suggest you look it up. What it means, is that its FORCED on all ppl. Its not a MARCH or a protest on the street. This is a school and its closed campus. Do you understand the difference here? Marches, well, we can just WALK away. School? Not so much!.

Homosexuals are nice people but that doesn't mean society should change their views and laws to cater to their behavior.

You and others like you do not feel justified in your behavior so you want the rest of society to come down to your level so you can 'Feel' good about yourself. Develope your own sense of worth and/or belonging don't seek it from others. Good luck

@rapolitical Incorrect... Marriage existed LONG before Christianity ever existed. The institution of marriage pre-dates reliable recorded history. Each culture on this planet has a different way for people to be married. If you had any reliable education beyond that sand-pit you hid your head in, you'd know this.

@eventheinnocent This is similar to how Gandhi protested. Getting in people's faces and telling them how wrong they are and what they need to change is not always the best way to get things done.
Some times pacifism gets more done than action. Some times being quiet gets more attention than being loud. This is a brilliant and positively creative.

@jettpax pacifism is very different from non action. Gandhi got half a million people walking to the beach to get salt (which was illegal ), your proposing people be quiet. its a bad idea, if you get 500 people chained up in a public place with duct tape on there mouths, that would send a message, if you tell a bunch of people to be quiet for a day, your doing nothing. Gandhi protested peacefully, your advocating non action. i must continue to disagree with this truly bad idea.

During your silence, you either hand out info, or direct people to info, on the day of silence, showing your silent to bring attention to those forced into silence.

@Corporis People can still be productive in class, there is more to school than talking for sure. However I feel like many people are missing the point, it isn't JUST being silent, and that isn't meant to fix everything. It is giving out information and directing people to what the day of silence is about, either with info cards, or telling them about it the next day.
It is meant to bring attention to the silence, not be the one and only force to fix it. That is what comes AFTER awareness..

Sorry, I was just being facetious.
I guess I should have been more creative in my words. What I mean by respect, is basically......being tolerant. Being tolerant of others who may not feel as you do. A lot of ppl spew the word tolerance, and have no clue what being tolerant really is. If ppl, ANY ppl want respect and tolerance, they must learn to give it as well. If anyone makes anyone feel uncomfortable for going against their beliefs, I feel that it is wrong to make them a captive audience.
whitedovenativeangel 2 years ago
In todays society, if one does not fully align themselves with one side, ie: gay agenda, right or left, they are considered intolerant or a bigot. Those words are tossed around so liberally that no one knows what a REAL bigot is. Just because someone does not accept homosexuality, does not make them a bigot. There is a difference. I, personally, can tolerate just about anything, but that does not mean I have to accept as true for my life. I hope that makes sense.

i don't consider myself 'right' or 'left'... well to tell you the truth, i still don't understand why you are offended by the day of silence. I feel like you're going out of your way to be offended for no reason at all. Day of silence is a peacful protest. No one is being forced to do anything. It's not like we're trying to make you gay. Maybe you're just no familiar with what it really is. Day of silence is protesting violence and harrassment against LGBT youth on school campus.

I am not offended. Did I say that? I dont think so.
I am saying, singling out any one group for bullying is wrong. Equal? Then count everyone in the mix.
LOL...I dont think you can MAKE anyone gay. Sorry, but thats just silly!

What you are failing to understand, because you dont seem to have an open mind (proves the hypocrisy with those who SAY they are tolerant, but really are not) is that this is a captive audience. Do you understand what that is? I suggest you look it up. What it means, is that its FORCED on all ppl. Its not a MARCH or a protest on the street. This is a school and its closed campus. Do you understand the difference here? Marches, well, we can just WALK away. School? Not so much!.
