Matthew Shepard wasn’t even Matthew Shepard

I was going to say it, too!

Why Tyler Clementi is not Matthew Shepard

... and why neither of them are Jesse Dirkhising

I have heard that Tyler Clementi also posted his sexual exploits on a gay site (a gay community version of U tube) which has now been scrubbed clean of Tyler's stuff.

This whole this is not what it seems, I'm thinking possibly a jilted lover scenario.

I have a question. There were two guys caught in the act by a video camera. One jumped, one didn’t. Is it possible the reason Clementi jumped was something personal between THEM?

[MrEdd]

This has been a matter of conjecture since the first threads.

1. Dumped by the lover.
2. Older man was Pedophile who groomed and used Clementi since his teens.
3. Professor or Grad assistant doing sex for grades.
4. Paying customer, and Clementi was hooking out of his dorm.

There are lots of possibilities that match all the known facts.

“Shepard doesn't count as it was a robbery and the recent stories are suicides. So, what violence?”

I was speaking generally, not of that specific case. It stands to reason to me that if you jam perversion into the faces of children it may not acclimate them to perversion as gay “activists” hope. It may make them nasty and angry. The question is are the rising generation nastier with respect to gays. Anecdotally, it seems so.

I don’t see that at all. What I see are stories where facts are ignored or twisted. I haven’t seen any honest stories of violence against people targeted because they are homosexuals. And the press HAS fooled the younger generation that it’s a “civil rights” issue.

Exactly! Why didn’t the author do a little research? Someone should email him the truth.

Thanks for pinging.
