LOVE DOESN'T HAVE A GENDER. I feel like people are so ignorant, and so insanely frightened by anything that's different. Last time I checked, NO ONE has a right to tell ANYONE how to live their life....

@MrBalto57 I'm going to be honest here. I would usually take the stance that you are entitled to your own opinion no matter how bigoted it may be but this isn't something you would just find randomly. you had to LOOK for this video. and the fact that you looked specifically for this video just to write something hateful and bigoted and ignorant as a comment to it is just plain rude and terrible of you. i'm sorry but it is.

@CliffM85 hello, that is really mean of you to say. I am a straight allie of the lgbt community and i think that is jist wrong of you to say. Yah it is doing something. It telling people that it is so hard for someone to come out without being teased or bullied. How they cant really do anything about a homophobic remark. Homosexuals dont like correcting people unless they are out.

@MrBalto57 -Based off your comments, it seems like you and I have the same standpoint on this whole video. I don't understand why you're mocking me by telling me I'm politically correct. Silly!!

[CliffM85]

Can anyone tell me that this video is as inspiring as Martin Luther King Jr's "I have a dream" speech?

No? It's not? Why?

Oh...because they're just being pompous and not saying anything. Yay for accomplishing NOTHING for gay rights by pretending that shutting the fuck up means something!!! :D

@MrBalto57 yep!

[MrBalto57]

@icet676 That must have felt darn good! Did you dedicate it to "The Day of Silence"?

[sylentphreez]

@EKmion for once, i want sum1 to argue their case w/o the words: 'the way i was raised' or 'where i come from.' u kno u dont have to c gay PDA, there's something called looking away. im sry that ur being bullied @ ur skool(u shud move to a dif skool if ur bein bullied b/c of ur race btw),but wen u say that the day of silence is just a "way for liberals 2 put down the majority",u should b supporting it considering that, in your school, u r part of the minority.best wishes 2u my friend:)

[EKmion]

@sylentphreez I think you would be like me if you where raised in my position. Go to a county all black school for a year. One good enough with people yelling black power all around the halls spiting at you for being white throwing cans at you, and the teachers dont do jack worth shit. I think my points stated when i say im raised like this. Maybe your right im ignorant because i dont like gays for really any reason.

Yeah it is a day of silence but please if your gay, I dont wana see it.

[sylentphreez]

@EKmion i don't know how you can use "adam and eve" as a defense against homosexuality when, in the bible, eve is considered to be the original sinner. also, the reason you are being harrased is because of your own ignorance. saying "white power" is very racist, my friend, and wearing an "adam and eve" shirt is very homophobic. those are the acts of narrow mindedness and you are also offending the peers that you interact with, hence you deserve harrassment for you are racist and ignorant.
