Performance artist Lady Gaga is calling on the government to make bullying a federal offense.
Reacting to the recent suicide of bullied gay Buffalo teen Jamey Rodemeyer, the 25-year-old New Yorker tweeted Wednesday, “Jamey Rodemeyer, 14 yrs old, took his life because of bullying. Bullying must become be [sic] illegal. It is a hate crime.”
Linking to the late boy’s “It Gets Better” YouTube video, which encourages viewers to love themselves and ignore the haters, Lady Gaga said she’s been sobbing, musing, and shouting since the tormented 14-year-old’s Sunday death.
“The past days I’ve spent reflecting, crying, and yelling,” Lady Gaga tweeted. “I have so much anger. It is hard to feel love when cruelty takes someones life.”

Understand that the left has co-opted an emotional term, “bullying”, and have applied it to the homosexual agenda.
They don’t mean anything about a bigger kid picking on a smaller kid.
No, they mean “expressing any negative opinion of homosexuality”, and they’ve applied a term to it that makes this agenda unopposable. “What? You’re pro-bullying?”
And this isn’t about outlawing “bullying”, this is about criminalizing Christian beliefs.
This has nothing to do with the Scott Farcus types.
This has everything to do with Bible believing Christians.
Exactly right.
The only difference today though, thank to liberals, the cartoon would show Joe punching the bully then getting 7 years in jail for assault. In todays world of liberal madness, you have to get killed first before you are allowed to defend yourself.
In other words, she wants disparaging homosexuals in any way to be an imprisonable offense.
I didn't know either, until I ran across a Youtube video of one of her "concerts." She is a bad caricature of a caricature of a filthy slut.
And that's being nice.
She’s a Madonna rip-off, 25 years later.
Trumka & Hoffa & Rahm are packaging dead fish to send to her doorstep as we speak.
Some people, even kids, deserve to be bullied. How else are they going to be taught to behave properly? Lady Gaga obviously should be bullied, not be worshiped and given millions of dollars.
It's also hard to feel love when you look at her face.
Yeah that is an excellent idea let’s make a federal law against having a negative opinion of gays. Then we can keep a record of who doesn’t agree with us and bully them throughout their lives. Why don’t we just pass a law banning gay suicides?
“Stop taxing yourself! Stop taxing yourself! Stop taxing yourself!”
Liberals consider disagreeing with them as “bullying.”
When they said the “Road to Hell is paved with good intentions,” they were precisely referring to things like this.
Dan Savage is NOT vile or evil. (veil and live are two other anagrams and LEVI!
Good, pro family, pro American politicians like Mike Bloomberg and Andy Coumo marched in this year’s NYC gay pride parade.
Do you know who the grand marshal was?
Dan Savage.
So he can not be vile or evil. :)
Mr. Gaga plans on only a certain kind of bullying to be illegal. Political correctness will progress from being used by bullying socialists against the people they hate, to become the law so they can put their thought enemies in jail. Palin supports hate speech laws - as long as it is speech she hates.
A 14-yr-old homosexual? Also,what about the heterosexual kids who are being bullied?
It's also hard to feel love when I realize I just read an entire thread on FR about her/him/it. That's 5 minutes of my life I won't get back.
