There is some important, sobering information that I wanted to share.
I don't know if you heard about the two 11-year-old boys who
tragically committed suicide because of anti-gay taunts at school in
the past two weeks -- Jaheem Herrera lived in the state of Georgia and
Carl Walker-Hooper lived in Massachusetts. Both were called "gay" all
the time at school and both Carl and Jaheem's moms complained to their
schools. They hung themselves because they couldn't take it anymore.
