Sarah’s Message
"Dear America, when you tell gay Americans that they can't serve their country openly or marry the person that they love, you're telling that to kids too. So don't be shocked and wonder where all these bullies are coming from that are torturing young kids and driving them to kill themselves because they're different. They learned it from watching you." Sarah Silverman
Dear Readers,
When you don't make it clear that being LGBT is a positive orientation, you are contributing to the culture that bullies LGBT kids. We need to make it clear that LGBT is a positive, healthy and normal way to be. Otherwise we are reinforcing the negative behaviors and stereotypes. We would not stand by and watch a kid be maligned for her color, religion or gender. Why is being LGBT such a huge leap?
Ms. L
