Open Thread – Spirit Day

Teenagers who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender (GLBT) are four times more likely than straight teens to commit suicide. 9 out of 10 gay teens are bullied, verbally or physically abused. After several recent incidents of the bullying of GLBT youth who ended up taking their own lives, supporters are participating in Spirit Day by wearing purple to bring attention to this tragedy. You can even wear purple for the day on your Twitter avatar, or your Facebook profile by going HERE!
