I ja sam hteo da otvorim temu o ovom i ne samo o ovom vec o celoj ovoj tematici u Americi, ali od straha da me se ne napadne kako "stalno pljujem po Americi" (kako su otprlike par nekih glasnih anti-Velboy-evaca ovde znali da mi izvrnu i spochitnu), nisam.
no, poshto je tematika srecom otvorena, prilazem par stvari koje dobih samo vecheras u mom webmail-u (koji je moja aktivistichka "centrala", prvenstveno ) gde se vidi da je stanje zapravo daleko, daleko gore i teze nego shto je i uvodni post onim videom i rekao.
HRC (Human Rights Campaign) mi je poslao ovu poruku kao chlanu:
Dear Vel,
This is an epidemic
Communities are reeling from recent suicides.
Students are being pushed to the edge. The bullying must STOP.
Last week, Rutgers University freshman Tyler Clementi killed himself by jumping off a bridge after his roommate secretly recorded him with another male student, then broadcast the video online.
I wish I could tell you this was an isolated incident. But Tyler's death as a victim of anti-gay harassment was just one of a number of recent suicides among teenagers who were ruthlessly "bullied to death."
Our schools and our nation cannot sit back and wait for the next tragedy. So today, we're calling on Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to speak out immediately – and to push every school anti-bullying program in the nation to include sexual orientation and gender identity like HRC's Welcoming Schools program. Please stand with us.
Ask Arne Duncan: improve our nation's anti-bullying programs so we can end this tragedy.
Tyler wasn't the only one.
After months of relentless bullying, 13-year-old Seth Walsh hung himself from a tree outside his California home this week. Billy Lucas of Indiana was 15 years old when he hung himself after being called a "fag" over and over again. Asher Brown's classmates teased him without mercy and acted out mock gay sex acts in class, and last Thursday he shot himself in the head. He was only 13.
And a single district in Minnesota has seen seven suicides in the last year by young victims of intolerance. As a virulently anti-LGBT candidate seeks the governor's chair (a man who could decide the fate of anti-bullying measures), it's clear that the very lives of Minnesota's children are at stake.
This isn't a new problem. It's been happening for decades. And too often, administrators fail to act, even after parents complain about the bullying at school.
That's why HRC developed Welcoming Schools, an innovative program that gives elementary school teachers, parents and students across the country the tools to help stop the name-calling, bullying and gender stereotyping that so many students face every day. It helps kids learn respect and tolerance early on, to prevent violence later in middle and high school.
But it's up to those who run our schools – from Secretary Duncan down to every local school board – to act to end the bullying.
Secretary Duncan: No more children should be bullied to death. Help stop anti-LGBT harassment in schools now.
Once you take action, I hope you'll write a letter to the editor of your local paper. I hope you'll also let educators and administrators in your local school district know about
www.welcomingschools.org and explain why you want to see Welcoming Schools in elementary schools near you. The more we spread the word, the better our chances of preventing another tragedy.
If school officials don't act, more young lives will be tragically lost. We can't let that happen.
Sincerely, Joe Solmonese
Ask the Secretary of Education: take action NOW to make our students safe. (evo i linka

kao i ovo gde neki antigej pomocnik Attorney General-a u drzavi Michigan (rust belt) fizichki shikanira, uhodi i progoni prvog gej predsednika studentskog saveza na Univerzitetu Michigan :
Chris Armstrong, a student leader at the University of Michigan, is being attacked by a state employee for being gay. He's being stalked and harassed by Andrew Shirvell, Michigan's Assistant Attorney General who's also an anti-gay extremist.
If enough of us contact the perpetrator's boss, Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox, and tell him to stop the madness, we can help protect Chris from further harassment. Chris Armstrong, the first openly gay student assembly president of the University of Michigan, is being stalked and harassed by Michigan Assistant Attorney General Andrew Shirvell.
Shirvell, an anti-gay bigot, has started an appalling blog called Chris Armstrong Watch, an online forum for his rants about Chris.
But he has also crossed a line. Shirvell has shown up at Chris' house and he regularly posts lies about Chris' personal life. He's obsessed, and it's gotten scary.
On Tuesday, Shirvell was interviewed by CNN's Anderson Cooper, who asked repeatedly about
his claims that Armstrong was "Satan's representative" in student government. In a cringe-worthy performance, Shirvell could only respond that he had the right to do what he was doing.
This is unacceptable and bizarre behavior from anyone, let alone a public official!
Tell the Michigan Attorney General to take action and stop his employees from harassing private citizens. ( ovde je link

Take action now and help us defend Chris. Ask your family and friends to do the same.
Eto kakvu atmosferu u Americi kreiraju tea-party-jashi i republikanci. omiljeni sport im je izivljavanje nad gejevima, bash isto kao shto antigeji u zemljama ex-Yu rade. Ali, dok zemlje ex-Yu vaze za nazadne, primitivne .... u poredjenju s Amerikom, Amerika je eto "land of free, amazing grace...." i svetski policajac i "savrshena svetska zemlja-prva sila" - a, evo ima stvari i praksi u americhkom drushtvu koje se samo s primitivnim delovima sveta mogu ravnati. Ovo prilazem i zbog toga shto i mene lichno sve ovo podseca na one dane kada sam i ja bio antigejno gnavljen, shikaniran, vredjan i napadan na nekoliko mesta tj. shkolskih i poslovnih institucija otkad uselih u Ameriku.
