   It’s been decided. On October 20th, 2010, we will wear purple in honor of the 7 gay boys who committed suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse in their homes at at their schools. Purple represents Spirit on the LGBTQ flag and that’s exactly what we’d like all of you to have with you: spirit. Please know that times will get better and that you will meet people who will love you and respect you for who you are, no matter your sexuality. Please wear purple on October 20th. Tell your friends, family, co-workers, neighbors and schools. RIP Tyler Clementi, Asher Brown, Seth Walsh, Justin Aaberg, Raymond Chase, Billy Lucas and Cody J. Barker (picture not shown). You are loved.

   NOW GO TUMBLR BLOGGERS, REBLOG LIKE CRAZY! WE WANT EVERYONE IN ON THIS!

   I usually don’t reblog things like this, but this really just pulled at my heart strings. These deaths could have so easily been prevented and yet we failed as a society to protect our youth from all the bigotry and hate. It doesn’t matter if you’re gay, straight, white or puerto rican; everyone deserves the right to live without being persecuted for who they are. I’m on my way out to find something purple. This really needs to stop.

   OH. I’m going to wear purple later. :) RIP :-/

   I’M WEARING PURPLE NOW. RIP ♥
