I am proud that we can discuss a Gay-Straight Alliance club today. If this topic came up when most of us were in school, it would have been a dangerous conversation. We have a long way to go in showing respect to ALL of our citizens, but that said, we have in fact came a long way. I am also hopeful as our generation dies out, the next one will make this world a better place for those still on the way. I hear so often here about the Good Ole Days, well I agree we have pockets of problems today, but overall I feel we are a better society to address and change issues like we discuss here and not drive them into back rooms. No one should live their life embarrassed nor ashamed of who they are. I am speaking of Sexual Origination, Race, Gender or choice of faith.
