The silence surrounding the issue of teens being harassed and bullied due to their actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity has gone on too long. People are people and all deserve respect and love. In a time when kids are dealing with just trying to figure out who they are and how they fit into this world, the last thing anyone needs is to be fearful for the life and safety. And for these kids to think that ending their lives is the only way to escape being tormented... For too long have we not taken the steps to ensure the safety of ALL of the students. It is time to step up and show that we give a damn.
