Wear Purple for LGBT!

Today I'm wearing purple to show my support for LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) People across the world.

"On october 20th we will wear purple to bring awareness to, and put an end to intolerance in honor of the 6 boys who commited suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse at home and in schools. Purple represents spirit on the Lgbtq flag and that's exactly what we would like all of you to have with you: spirit. Please know that times will get better and that you will meet people who will love you and respect you for who you are, no matter your sexuality. Please wear purple on October 20th. Tell your parents, friends, co-workers, neighbors and schools."---Offical FB fan/group page

The bullying needs to stop.
The hate needs to stop.
It's 2010 EVERYONE needs to be respected and loved for who they are, not WHAT they are.
Will you join me and wear purple today? Addi is :)
