What can one say? Some of us do have good parents. Ryan Skipper, Ryan Shepard, and so many other Ryans around the world, open, honest, brave men die so one day we can live free in a free world where the power of love overcomes the power of hate. Wherever their souls and spirits are, let us commit to continuing the struggle for our freedom. Show those who died so we might love, they are not forgotten.

My heart goes out to the Mulder family, to their loss, and my sincere thanks for their support and advocacy. In this case, I am impressed.

This ... this 'recounting' reveals much.

It reveals the power of hate and fear and how it can be used to demean and diminish humanity.

It reveals something more powerful, more important. The power of love to transform, to enlighten, to educate, to empower and to love even more!

I am sorry for the Mulder's loss. I am awed by their ability to grow from this. We could all do well to learn from them.

It is unfortunate that a few people hate those who are different be they gay, Lesbian or Transgendered.

I support equality for all not just a few heterosexuals.

Hate is the down fall of all civilizations. It is also infectious.

These stories make me so sad :( It's sad that we still live in a world where hate runs rampant and takes innocent lives. The destruction it causes to individuals and their families is immense. RIP Ryan and I hope these type of situations become less and less as time goes by.

If you kill a gay man and he has done nothing too you , then you should be put too death! Why ? they didn't get the death penalty is wrong! there is no justice in this nation. I hope they both die in prison or some gay brothers in there will kill them in the prison yard.

Your imagination is working well today and ready to take off on flights of fancy. A little daydreaming will lead to some inspired ideas, as will discussing your thoughts with someone who's on the same wavelength as you. Speaking of wavelengths, you could have a telepathic experience now that defies explanation.
