Tomorrow marks the 4th anniversary of the suicide of Tyler Clementi
A life so tragically taken from us (and yes I still have no respect for the people that stood by the sentence of the man that caused this suicide).
2010 was not a good year for young LGBT, we lost many that year but if there is to be a silver lining in what happened in 2010 it raised awareness to a problem about bullying.
Tyler, it did not get better for you but hopefully your death & the deaths of many others that year brought awareness to the problem and is now saving lives.
May you eternally rest in peace (you have your wings, that's for sure & know that you are not forgotten).

Bullying is evil and for those who participate in it, I hope karma comes back to bite them in the ass.
