    April 18th is The Day Of Silence. It is a day for all gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transexuals, and supports to stand up against all the hate crimes against our sexual preference. Be heard!
    This is the day where you take a vow of SILENCE for all gays, bis, transeuxals, ect, and stand up for what rights should be ours. Take the vow of silence!
    I'm going to do so with pride and make T-shirts and all. Do it with me!

    And I know I'll get put down for this, but gays and ect ARE people and should have HUMAN rights. Stand up for what rights we should already have.

    Here is probably the place you're least likely to be put down for it, it's the day for just YOU that you're usually put down for.

    A day of silence for homosexual people... I mean no offence, but the gay people I know are going to find this REALLY difficult. But then I think there are a lot of people in this world of ours who should have a day of silence, based on their social and political views. But they never freakin' have one.

    At least we're standing up.
    If they don't have one, then that's their "freakin'" fault.

    Oh my God, Realllly....That are...

    Well I never thought all gay people are nice, well let's look at Elton John...

    Wow He is soooooooooooo nice...

    Gay "people" are not another species for you to generalize them as just kind...Not of all of them are so, but then, I do not lump everyone together...I see them as individuals..with their own free will.

    Next you'll be telling me all black people love to daydream that they want to fly up in the sky...So high...

    There is no 'normal'... everybody are different, it doesn't make the way they are or see things wrong though... In fact I would go as far as saying abnormal is the most 'norm' these days.... Be happy, live happy, make others happy... what else is there? If you want to make others happy you are 'normal' if you want to make others unhappy then you are the not.... just my opinion.... remembering you have to keep yourself happy at the same time as making others happy :]

    There is normal.

    its called everyone. =]

    and im going to join the Myspace group.

    " ^and why would you be put down for such thoughts......many are homophobic only because of what they've been taught and the BS rhetoric from generations past...homosexuality is not for me by choice, however people can't help whom and what they chose to be in life...Love comes in many strange forms and should never be questioned....this reminds me of when I was a child and people who were developmentally disabled or afflicted, were shunned by society and put away regardless of who they were as individuals, we as a society tend to do that with everyone who doesn't follow the so called norm...whatever that is...."

    Under Section 28 in British Law, Schools were forbidden to not teach children that the gay family (nuclear, extended) was an accepted norm.

    Catholic Adoption agencies do not give children to gay couples, but suggest that they go to anpther.

    It's funny how such a thing as someone you fall in love with, can alter your entire life.

    Homosexuality is still discussed on whether it comes from internal factors (nature) or external factors (nurture)...

    Next thing you know, after colonising other planets in the future, and finding other inhabitants...I bet that they will be treated the same as ethnic minorities and homosexuals....

    Bob...

    Do you think that opinion of yours would be imparted impartially to a paedophile.

    Oh excuse me I forgot we live in a PC world...

    What I meant to say was 'Childlover'

    Queers annoy me. I'm okay with them, but they always make out in front of me. They screech when you punch them.

    That's a bit harsh john.

    personally, the lifestyle isn't for me but i guess if you want to be gay or lesbien then do your thing. i'm against it but i'm in no place to judge. and i think it's great that they can have their day

    You know what.....I want a freaking shirt for being STRAIT why is it that you all get your "day of silence" like its some sort of big deal....who cares if your GAY aka (happy as a lil clam) in my school we have are silent day spent being as loud as possible and it would tick off teachers but then again my old high school was full of farmers..... so yeah I wanna shirt for being strait and loving the he** out of my man

    Arash:

    I do not see any irony, just someone who seems to be an avid straight enthusiast wanting a shirt...

    And a person saying to keep quiet and get it already....

    Is that abuse..?

    I think you need your third eye checked...Lol.

    "Queers annoy me. I'm okay with them, but they always make out in front of me. They screech when you punch them."

    ^^Oh what? Like straight people NEVER make out in public either? Dude I'm in SAN FRANCISCO and while I've seen MANY homosexual couples I've never seen any go at it in public. And I'm not even going to acknowledge the last part of what you wrote.

    "You know what.....I want a freaking shirt for being STRAIT why is it that you all get your "day of silence" like its some sort of big deal....who cares if your GAY aka (happy as a lil clam) in my school we have are silent day spent being as loud as possible and it would tick off teachers but then again my old high school was full of farmers..... so yeah I wanna shirt for being strait and loving the he** out of my man"

    ^^The girl above is right, then go make your freaking shirt. You know WHY its a big deal? Because people like you judge a homosexual person based on their sexual orientation alone and for one, single, lousy day homosexual people get a united voice to speak out (or lack of speak out). If you want a freakin straight day then go out and make it, but don't sit and whine about a cause thats really important to some people. And for the record, gay doe snot always equal happy as a clam, grow up.

  • Noir

    I find it funny and humorous how people sit here and say...I want a day for straight people, I want a day for the majority...

    Well it's never ever gonna happen, wanna know why....?

    Because you haven't suffered the anguish and abuse...People who are gay and people who are ethnic minorities, were second class citizens. And now they have a right to celebrate what they won...

    But it seems to me, that in turn will never happen...

    Arash: Yes, I guess I want to be recognized as gay...How good of you to notice....Hint the Sarcasm why don't you?

    Anyhoo, what does Cowgirl have to be guilty about...Hmm? Did she kill any gay people...No

    But it's funny how you would say two sides of every story...Yes we can see that, but if the people isn't involved and they want something they haven't suffered and worked hard for...Well that's sad...Don't ya think?

    Arash, next time please...And I say this with a shred of respect...Maybe a dot of respect...Don't try to be neutral...You don't know how to act like it...

    And spell my name right...It's Noir...But I guess you need more eye drops and more sleep...Lol.
