I would like to see better coverage of these above average moments in gay life. There are never enough heroes in the gay world and there seems to be nothing ordinary about Mitch Anderson's life. Well worth your time to follow the links and read his speech. As I said, a courageous young man.

That might be the best salutation speech I've ever seen. Yet, if you read the comments that follow it, every one of them is negative! I don't get it. That speech was truly wonderful. Just shows, words won't affect some people. They enjoy their own hatred too much to be swayed.
