I was looking through blogs in my google reader account and came across this post in a blog I follow and it got me thinking about bullies. There is so much hatred going on in the world today. I don't like it. I don't like how it makes me feel and I don't like how it makes others feel. When I think of all the bullying that goes on in school because a kid wears glasses, is too fat, is poor, is not athletic enough etc. it makes me sick. I hate when I get treated differently just because I'm a "Mormon". When people get to know me they see that I'm an nice, genuine, and honest person. Before you judge someone take the time to get to know their true colors.
While I may not agree with the homosexual lifestyle the men and women who live this way are still human beings. They have a right to be treated with respect just like anyone else.
I don't understand meanness. I understand when people are perhaps ignorant, but when that ignorance breeds intolerance? Wow. I have a lot of thoughts on that matter.

That's a powerful video clip - thanks for posting it, Julie. The more I live, and the more I get to know people, the more I find that people are people. Everyone has a story.
