Matthew Shepard was a college student murdered because he was gay. Much too little is done about anti-gay hate crimes. To see the extent of this, visit the Matthew Shepard Online Resources site. Some of the things people say about us are horrifying. And now they're trying to pin the Colorado shootings on us, too. Why are people so quick to blame us? Don't they realize that when they use those names to insult someone, they're hurting us even more?
I made up a list of internet links for any of you who want to go snooping...
