This reasonable column by Maggie is overrun by comments from the other side. FReepers are well-advised to register at the Post and give some balance. And don't forget, like a good FReeper, always to be polite!

If they now suddenly believe we are shaped by our environment they must take responsibility for each serviceman that commits suicide.

[ChocChipCookie]

I blame gay activists for these suicides. Sensitive teens are told they can never change and that everyone around them H8s them. They already feel different and rejected, even if it’s just perception, and then to feel utterly hopeless... well, that’s a recipe for suicide. Very sad, but blood will be on the hands of those who prey on these teens and preach a message of hopelessness.

[rockinqsranch]

It’s the advocates of the lifestyle that have the blood on their hands, and like so many Leftists, as it’s their SOP they project their guilt onto others.

An irresponsible lot.

Kids need to be told to keep it in their pants and keep their mouths shut

[lacrew]

The school wanted my kids to wear purple in memory of these kids.

Typical libtard drivel. When something bad happens it is never the fault of the people that perpetrate it. No no no... In the libtard view, there is no such thing as personal accountability and responsibility, you must always find a scapegoat. It is just a plus if that scapegoat can somehow be made out of an employed, married, straight, white, Christian, male...no matter how twisted the logic.

Hey, why don't they just blame racist, pro 2nd Amendment, capitalist, insurance Company employees that are members of their local Chamber of Commerce? That way they could hit all the current liberal boogeymen at once.

Yeah, this week some of my family members on Facebook have been all over it this. They are in their early 30s and have bought into the 'we have to save the homosexual teens from bullying' idea. These folks seem to forget that LOTS of kids get bullied in high school, not just homosexual ones. I don't see anyone making big public pushes for anti-bullying for fat kids, or nerdy kids, or really smart kids. I suspect it's just another way to try to guilt everyone into acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle, for the children.

Maggie Gallagher is right, even in MA, where homosexual marriage is legal, homosexual kids are still killing themselves, so it's obviously NOT the push against homosexual marriage that is causing it.

[A_perfect_lady]

Oh, opposing gay marriage leads to gay suicides, eh? So there are probably no straight, married people who commit suicide, right? Because marriage is the cure for suicidal depression, right?

Yah. Yah, that's the ticket. Marriage will make them so happy they'll never want it to end. Yah, that's right. Yah.

"gay suicide" is completely a MSM manufactured phenomenon:

Look at the trendline - it spikes over the course of the last few weeks...

[chilltherats]

Teens want to get married? Who knew?

[tdscpa]

I wonder what is happening there. I did not think that paper was a queer publication, but the letters made it appear so.

[Tzimisce]

How DARE you disagree with the Gay Groups!

You’re a homophobe!

[CardCarryingMember.VastRightWC]

Some Freeper once said, on the issue of homosexuals' "right" to be Scoutmasters .....

Just which part of "I don't want my boys going into the woods with homosexuals!" do you not understand?

[kearnyirish2]

This is simply an attempt to silence opposition to their agenda; the nut who threw himself off the GWB was hardly some high school freshman, but an adult (a sad story, but hardly one to advance their agenda). His suicide demonstrates their mental illness, if the footage itself doesn’t. In fact, given the recent story about the lifting of the ban on homosexuals in the military, the dilemna of the Rutgers student’s room-mate illustrates the problems with lifting the ban.

[sport]

If they think that the teen, both homosexual and hetrosexual, is high now, wait until the shortages that their idol[obama] has decreed that will happen because of the policies he has instituted kick in. If they commit suicide now because someone gives them a dirty look or says mean things to or about them, wait until their bellies get empty and there is no hope of either getting enough food, a place to live, or food.

[MNDude]

Based on those figures, it’s obvious why the military doesn’t want them. It’s a bunch of VERY messed individuals.

The disfunctional Left is at it again, the “guilty” parties of this were two minorities who have felt no reperucussions from this because they are non-white, but instead the hatemongers as usual go with their anti-white tirades. These people deserve NO respect.
