I have gotten very involved in these discussions here in the past, because even though it's not an issue that directly affects MY life, it's an issue that affects and hurts a lot of my friends. Overall I'm really impressed with this thread....minus one person who I'm completely appalled at! (And I don't give breaks because "They're only 13".

My brother just turned 14, and he has NEVER been hateful towards any person or group of people. Age has nothing to do with hate, unfortunately.

I'd like to add more but I'm exhausted....I hope this thread keeps going the way it has been, I really enjoyed reading all (but one of) the responses!
