I seethe NOT because my son is gay. I seethe because he lives in a country in which some elected officials find it politically advantageous to deny him dignity, basic rights, and protections. I seethe because there are people who preach hatred and discrimination towards gays yet claim to be "good" and "loving" Christians. I seethe because there are groups who claim to be "advocates" for the family but who work to do great harm to any family that doesn’t fit their narrow template for “normal”.

SFPD "It Gets Better" Video
This video really got to me. And I've got to believe that if I were a scared, bullied, gay or lesbian kid, this clip would really give me hope and comfort. It is one of the more powerful "It Gets Better" videos I've seen.
Impressive that this was done, and that so many wonderful police department employees took part - this could help a lot of young folks see that their future can be rich, loving, and successful.
