Dr. Michael Brown - You Should be Ashamed!!!

[funk7000]

The facts are this: Bullying should not be tolerated, and Dr. Brown's views are protected by the 1st amend. Kids/teens are more likely to be depressed and contemplate suicide if and when encouraged to embrace a homosexual lifestyle due to the sexual confusion that comes along with it regardless of whether or not people bully them. Homo-on-homo violence occurs far greater in volume and in frequency. If you have a prob with Brown, swearing and screaming is not the way to get your message across

Also, homosexual behavior is directly associated to much much higher rates and spread of STDs, HIV, certain cancers and psych problems. This is still a fact even in many very pro-homosexual locations such as the Castro district, Massachusetts, and the Netherlands.

@funk7000 Bullying causes more psychological problems than simply being "gay". There wouldn't be so many psychological problems if people embraced others for who they are, instead of condemning them! If you can defend this dude, you're no better! Shame on you for making up false statistics - I want to know where you got your "facts"! If you can't provide a source, then get your head out of your ass! Welcome to earth! His opinion is protected by the first amendment, but guess what? So is MINE!

@TheBasementAtheist Nobody just decides to commit suicide overnight or in the blink of an eye. Suicide Ideation starts from within…internal conflicts, such as anxiety and depression that festers from within. Bullying may be the ‘tipping point’ that may push somebody over-the-edge, but it is NOT the root cause of suicide and suicide ideation.

@funk7000 NEVERMIND THE FACTS - Kids who are bullied are 9 times more likely to commit suicide than non-bullied kids... 1 in 3 kids who identify as "gay" try and kill themselves! 9 out of every 10 gay kids are bullied, beaten, or bashed! Your preachers preach hatred towards gays - bullies learn it from their authority figures, including parents!! Kids rejected by their parents are 8 TIMES MORE LIKELY to try and kill themselves! Bullying creates the inner turmoil - defending that is killing kids!

@funk7000 SHAME ON YOU!

@funk7000 I'll come across however I want to - like you said, my "views are protected by the 1st amendment"... Fact - 19.3% of all hate crimes are motivated by a sexual orientation bias! That's just convicted hate crimes - that doesn't include the things that go on unreported! 25% of bullies are convicted of a criminal offense within their first years out of adulthood. 60% of all students witness bullying on a daily basis! Making up statistics - you should be ashamed of yourself!!!

“It is important to point out in these moments of grief that there is absolutely no scientific evidence of an ‘epidemic of 'gay' youth suicide,’ or even that 'gay' youth kill themselves more frequently than do straight youth. To assert that there is an epidemic of 'gay' youth suicide is not only speculative, but also irresponsible, b/c of the message it delivers to 'gay' youth: ‘be prepared to kill yourself.'"

@funk7000 "He sees Savin-Williams’ point that linking suicide and bullying to gay adolescence can paint a grim picture of what it’s like to be a gay teen these days. But those gloomy circumstances remain an inescapable reality for some kids."

"Goldstein, however, sees more danger in underestimating the problem than in overestimating it. “I just don’t get his logic,” he says of Savin-Williams. “Talking about a problem, discussing it in the press ... that doesn’t cause the problem.”"

Cherry pick?

@funk7000 I'm done with you, post whatever else you want. You got the date on the article you took this from wrong, it's December, not October - I'll leave you with this: If you can defend the bullying, you instigate the deaths and the suicides are part of your problem - not mine! Shame, shame, shame...

You're just mad because Dr. Brown exposed your secret gay agenda to live as free and equal human beings in an unbiased and accepting society like you deserve.

Ha, nice try you sneaky little bugger :)

Seriously though, the actions of these retards make me ashamed to be human; Time for a reboot of the species.

I'm sorry for all the bullshit people have put you & other LGBT people through; I was lucky to be born straight & not have to deal with those same issues, but I understand the frustration.

[TheBasementAtheist]

@Quimbyrbg That's a lot of history to apologize for lol... But not a problem! Don't sweat it ;-) We won't hold the grudge after we get our rights!

[Stylah3001]

Agreed! he's probably a "doctor" of the 19th/18th century mentally.....bring out the pillory and the a G for gay on our shirt will ya.... BARBARIC :-( !

[TheBasementAtheist]

@Stylah3001 I was really just taken aback... I mean, really?! Shame on him for using innocent children's suicides' to advance his christian agenda! Fuck him!
