Forum - Day of Silence
Anyone participating?
0 | http://www.dayofsilence.org/ So, apparently in about two weeks, there's going to be the Day of Silence, a protest against anti-gay harassment. I'd heard about it last year, but didn't become interested until this year since I'm on the newspaper staff and we've decided to run a big story on it, so to that end I plan on participating. Anyone else plan to do the same? On a related note, that Lawrence King story is real screwed up. I mean, seriously, some 14-year-old kid in his class just waltz up behind the guy on a random day and blows his brains out in the middle of the classroom. I mean, that's just disturbing, y'know? Despite my cynicism, I still find it hard to believe a kid could just murder someone in cold blood, simply because the victim was gay. Also, I would really wish people would refrain from posting things like, "This thing's gay," or "Only fags support this," or other such immature crap. I realize that such a disclaimer shouldn't be necessary, but the internet has made realize it's better safe than sorry. |

0 | I wouldn't expect that kind of reply on Libelldra. It's pretty tame around here for the most part. I would hope nobody that is human would say such a thing. This is not funny or gay in any way. What do you need to do to participate? I will gladly participate if I can. |

0 | It seems a little asinine to me to stay silent. I remember this from when I was in high school. If anything, homosexuals shouldn't remain silent, because isn't that what they usually do? Doesn't silence contribute to the negative impact upon homosexuals? I knew a few gay people in high school, they all hated this, because of this very reason. As one suggested "Why not a 'loud as hell' day?" |
