SHUT UP Options

[*mSz_dOrk_anGeL*]

Erhm, I posted this on Clique and yeah I wanted to put it here for more to see =/


Right okay, So whats everyone doing April 13th 2005. I hope nothing, this is the day you need to be quiet.

Why do you ask?

'The Day of Silence institutes a visible silence, a silence during which participants protest anti-LGBT* discrimination and abuse. Such an effort also allows us to reflect upon how powerful silencing can be, to focus on how we can make our own voices stronger and to begin to stop silencing ourselves.'

Now, some of you may have seen my topic on cB about the study done on abuse of Gays and Lesbains in school and can see that I do support Gay Rights. I'm just saying this is a great 'slient' protest and I would be happy if you took part.

I myself am going to show what I'm doing by wearing a shirt I will make that says

Front:
"SHUT UP"

Back:
"Protest anti-LGBT discrimination and abuse."
"Day of Silence 2004"

Thank you for reading and I hope you take part

okay earlierr this year i think in october but 2 or 3 weeks before holloween, just baout our whole 8th grade took the vow of silence, to support gay rights, and against abuse and everything, no i'm not all for gay rights but i am against prejudice against ppl, well like i said we tried, and it stirred up a big conservty (sp?) with the parents, and half of the 22 of us, so about 11 ppl were suspended. And for all the ppl who are saying that it will piss parents and teachers off, think about this, when you're talkin in class you're pissin teachers off, when you're not paying attention in class you're pissin thiem off. and just like when you don't do what your parents do you're pissing them off, so get over it, if you beilive in the cause then you'll do it! So yeah in Aprill i'll take a vow of silence and like [2] Nekked said you can do it as long as you want, i'll probably only do it for an hour or so, cause i know i can't go long without talking
