An absolutely unbelievable speech a Texas council member gave about his experience being bullied for being gay, and about his plea for young LBGT kids to find outlets and help if they're being bullied, and to not take their own lives. Truly one of the most moving things I've seen in quite awhile.
Wow. This man is a hero in my eyes.
