Who is this Matthew wotshisname?! Propz Pilgrim
His name is Matthew Shepard, a gay college student, who was murdered 11 years ago.
My post contains a zillion links. Press one or two and find out who he is. Broadens one's world. . . ;-)
We were both very young when he died. I was 10 years old. You?
au revoir
I was also very young when Matthew was murdered. I was only 54. :-P
What worries me is this: changing the law is a lot easier than changing human nature. Crime in all its nasty forms will never be eliminated, but at least it can be contained to some extent.
Obama's critics accuse him of being naive. Well, maybe that's what it takes, and if that's what it takes, then let's go for it.
It is a different world now than it was just 11 years ago.
I was not out then and I remember trying to watch the news and see what was happening with the case without looking too interested. Everyone that I knew had an oppinion that they were happy to share. That I'm sure today they would be embarrassed to admit to.
STEW. . .that they would be embarrassed today to say what they were willing to say 11 years ago is in itself a real sign of change, isn't it.
GARY. . . naivete is not always a bad thing. Often it means you are able to move on and do things. . .without all the cumbersome baggage that comes with being a self-made "know it all". hehee
STEW. . . look at you, dude, standing there almost as tall as the Pilgrims' Monument in Provincetown. hahhaa. . .Nice. . .very nice ;-)
Oh, I have a monument in your town? ...11yrs ago I was 8, and I´m nozt that interested in such dead peepz.
I was 8 and didn´t even know that there was other than straight peepz.
