Just a guy tired of being called a faggot and watching friends and bullying victims kill themselves. Some of us are tired of being told to sit back and take racism and homophobia, meanwhile it's killing some of us. Maybe next time some redneck keys my car, or calls me a faggot outside a club I'll just sit there and take it like a good little liberal pacifist.
