When Persons are Attacked for Who They Are...

New York Man Beaten for Being Gay. Clearly, violence is not a way to solve these sorts of problems. Please pay attention to the quote in this article. Remember it. It is a significant quote. I'll even reproduce it here:

"When someone is attacked for being who they are, and for being proud of who they are, there is no other explanation for that attack than hatred and bigotry," said New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, the first openly gay speaker of the city council.

When someone is attacked for being who they are, and for being proud of who they are, there is no other explanation for that attack than hatred and bigotry--really? I think we'll be finding out very soon. I'll be referring back to this in the future.

Peace.
