Yes, I had to announce this to everyone. Today is the National Day Of Silence. Basically, people around the United States keep silent today to express how many gays/lesbians/bis/transexuals all over the United States feel from hiding their sexuality.

I hope each of you are kind and openminded enough to participate in this.

Random Fact: About 4 out of 5 gays/lesbians/bis get harassed everyday.

Thank you.

--Jordan

^ I agree with most of the things you said until the last statement.

Okay, protests HAVE and will change things. How do you think blacks got their rights? Through protests. How do you think women got equal treatment as men? Through protests. I would use so many more examples but I'm really tired.
