If you don't start putting a hanky warning on these blogs, I am going to stop reading reading them. This one is 7 1/2 hankies and Kleenex that I used to get through the whole thing.

Whatever happens, however disappointing or encouraging the outcome, we know there's more work ahead until the day when no gay or lesbian youth experiences anything but full equality.

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me - and by that time there was no one left to speak up." So today, with all the injustice, let's update it.... First they came for the terrorists, and I didn't speak up because I was not a terrorist. Then they came for the gays and I did not speak up because I was not gay. Then they came for the immigrants but I did not speak up because I was not an immigrant. Then they came for the those that did not agree, I did not speak up to show I disagreed. Then they came for me......... So a famous pastor during the Nazi era said
