The Laramie Project

[oseancommander]

I think the day of silence is the best thing ever!!!! It makes me not scared to express my orientation!!!!

[pinoyguyable]

people are people no matter what let say if someone says white guy should not date a black female cause is wrong to date outside your race too me should not matter who you date black or white or others we are all human beings and being gay is what a person who is comfortable who they are too me is all about love is not always sex Okey they can love too like straight people too,

[western3589]

I have nothing against gay people, theres nothing wrong with it at all

Unless your faking it for attention

Or shoving it peoples faces for attention

However, the only thing I can't stand, is when they make it seem like they can't change the fact they are gay. You form your opinions, and control your life. Your not born liking ice cream, your not born liking the same gender. Your sexuality IS a choice, those who say your born with it convey it like its a disorder or something wrong with them.

Fred Phelps is a lost cause,and must be brought down.

[baire702]

Matthew: activist, caring, involved, quick thinker, darling, human, gay, Judy's son, did I say he was HUMAN?

May God bless you and keep you, Matthew; we miss you so very much!

This Was AMAZING!!!! You A Wonderful Job!!!!

[jkmnable]

Fuck religion. It stinks and it is just a dick in a pussy. Fuck your stinking, lieing religion.

[TheSilverphoenix88]

@jkmnable im sorry that you have been exposed to certain groups of religion that only show bigotry and narcissism. but i hope you meet some theists are open minded and tolerable. I am a Christian and i accept my brothers and sisters who happen to be gay as people with natural needs.

[jeffywuornos]

Totally disgusting what those fucking bigots did to him. I cry every single time.

[arctodus111]

I was in Blind Dog the night Matt was kidnapped and killed...I probably spoke with him though I have zero memory of it as I usually do when I'm in a bar...however-it should be noted that killing gay people is not a Wyoming value or a Wyoming thing....this state is very receptive and understanding of differences between people. Given that-I think you should all still stay away as I like my small state and don't want you to move here! LOL...

[zachpdoyle04]

this video is amazing. my drama class is doin this show along with a mixture of scenes. the scenes are about love and obviously laramie is about hate and this video is the perfect video for it.

[PeaceLovenHippie1]

@zachpdoyle04 i respect your view and agree with you but the problem with your statement is that by generalizing that all of Laramie is about hate your aren't being any better then the assholes that hate all homosexual people. Try not to generalize it is better yes there are some people in laramie that are hateful and want to do these horrible things but you must take into perspective the people that live there who are excepting good courteous people who also agree with your views

[psyclon09]

If I ever come across them protesters my god I will flipp they are so fucking discusting holding signs that say Thank god for Aids? seriously... only a sick minded individual could say that -.-

I am gay myself but I dont think the 'issue" on gays shouldn't be an issue we should be able to marry just like anyone else we are human too.

[PeaceLovenHippie1]

@psyclon09 amen to that brother. but i would really suggest not flipping a bitch on those protesters because that will just give them something else to say why gays are "evil" but i can also understand why you feel that way i feel that way my self im afraid if i ever came across the WBC i think i would have a tough time controlling my anger towards them.

[nirvanarocksyouknow2]

iam COMPLETLY FOR GAYS but it is a choice

[thestopgayhatelist]

@nirvanarocksyouknow2 off course not

[TheCrazedGuitarist]

@nirvanarocksyouknow2  You're born that way. You don't choose.

[asngurl2525]

what is this song called??

[MusicAngel2009]

man that was a good play <3 and I knew so many people who played a character..like over half the cast lol...if any of you read this you'll know who I am love you and good job.

[HeaterChimp]

... Wow, The crap they get... they fall in love wiht the same gender, and they get crap for it?! I'm 100% for gay rights.

You should be too, Or maybe they should hate you for being straight, think of it that way, what if gays hated you cus your straight and we did this crap to you?

[mdalvet]

He didnt just "get crap" for it. he was tricked and robbed and murdered.

[jpers10]

I don't hate gays, I just think it's unnatural and shouldn't ever be tolerated in society....it never has been and shouldn't be changed now, it's just another problem for society that should be kept to ones self.

[WHEEZY6789]

@jpers10 yeah well who the hell are you to say that about another persons religion???

[thestopgayhatelist]

@jpers10 i think people like you shouldn't be tolerated in cociety

[TheCrazedGuitarist]

@jpers10 But it's natural. Homosexuality is found in nature, thus making it natural.

[ActingGuy211]

This is amazig. My school is also doing The LAramie Project. I am creating a powerpoint to go on throughout the play. i was wondering if you found any news clips about matthew shepards death. Please let me know. Thanks

[bmopwnstd1]

mbss?

[jaclynthebrave]

unfortunately, whether it is right or not, it is an issue.

[KoolaidMolestors]

I'm gay.

I don't think it's a good thing to ask people what their opinion is on homosexuality. It's not about people's opinions, and it shouldn't be presented that way. Gay people don't "believe" in gayness, it's just who we are. People should be presented with the truth, with people just like them, who have a preference for who they love, just a minority preference. By calling gayness something anyone is welcome to have an opinion on, we're being looked at as an issue intead of as people.

[DysfunctionalDoll667]

amen.

[chemicalkidsx]

@KoolaidMolestors Im Stright.

And when i heard about Matthew, i fell to my knees and cried for hours. My best friend is gay and i can look at her say "I love you girl"

[Michaela24681012]

The fact that someone could do such a horrible thing to another human being is disgusting. A local school is doing this play for drama club and the same church that protested Mathews funeral is coming to protest the play...the drama club at my school is going to the play and we are planing on doing the Angel wings thing that they did at the funeral.

Thank you for making this video. Everyone needs to know about the horrible things that have been done in this world...and you have helped.

[67lyman]

This was a good video about hate being wrong, but being gay is a choice.

[spears23britney]

Being gay is not a choice. I am gay. I didn't wake up one day and decide that I was gay. You are born with it. Ask any gay person. They will give you the same answer.

[KoolaidMolestors]

No, it's not. Why would someone choose to be something which is discrimated against.

If you're heterosexual, did you choose to be so?

[MusicAngel2009]

its as much of a choice as your gender dear

[ninjapocky3]

.... i cried..... theres just no words to really explain just.... how messed up... screwed up... warped some people are.

[merrixdarling]

great job on this! xx

[inuki09]

OMG I live in Wy.

And i heard about that.

I'm sadden

[SMiNFINITi]

I personally am not gay, but my best friend in middle was gay and I got so sick and tired of the crap he got for it.

I think it's hilarious how the most God-loving people can be so cruel.

I'm a Christian, but my views are very Liberal. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ, we must all love each other as Christ loved us.

So if you're for gays or against gays, a Christian or not, tolerance is key.

Unfortunately, not very many people have tolerance.

[tsteckel916]

I agree, SMiNFINITi. I'm a Christian too, and my best friend is gay. I love him like a brother and am enraged when I hear people call him "fag". Nowhere in the Bible does it say that gays should die for who they are. You're so right, tolerance is what we all need. Tolerance and understanding.

[sexigurl906]

what is this song called...

[jaclynthebrave]

"don't panic" - coldplay

[MakeItCount27]

this is really great! right now my drama class is working on "The Laramie Project", and i'm very excited about it. this wuz such a horrible incident that every1 needs 2 kno about so that something lyk this doesnt happen again. thank u 4 posting this.

[deek23dg]

Touching! and Sad at the same time.

[dunedigger]

what song is this?

[dunedigger]

who sings this and what is the name of the song?

[jaclynthebrave]

"don't panic" - coldplay

[dunedigger]

lol, i thought it was coldplay. i would just like to say that i cried when i watched this. you did a good job, its sad what people to when they don't understand someone/something.

[jaclynthebrave]

thank you, that sincerely means a lot to me.

[GlamTrashQueen]

When I saw the sign "No special laws for fags" tears literally started streaming my face. And the little kid holding the "we don't want them" sign? ...

I always knew I was up for a big challange in life being gay, but I don't think it fully hit me until now.

[Kimbytns]

It's a sad fact, isn't it?

People whouldn't have to put up with this shit.

[kissababe]

No one should be judged by their sexual orientation, race, age, gender, ethnicity, or by their face. It just goes to show u that there are some people out there that just dont care...

[Gboyke]

Respect everyone! Respect gay people! Equal rigths for everyone! Gay marriages in the USA!

[Agila1]

excellent!

[GalloJ]

Haha i found you Jaclyn. Woot Laramie!
