    Great message. Excellent line from Janet Jackson, "None of us are safe, until all of us are safe." People need to visit SF to see what acceptance and the ability to be yourself is all about…Especially Castro. :)

    Its sad that a video needed to be created for this!! I blame the parents of the children who bully and belittle others for being different!!! I think they should show this to kids in schools across the country!! Children can be so mean at times!!!!

  18. Amanda says – reply to this


    118

    Re: kkk_4_life

    BURN all the people who think that burning people is a funny or righteous or sane thing to do. Except don't, because even the hateful deserve basic human rights, something the hateful like you would no doubt deny others.

  27. Beth says – reply to this


    127

    So Perez, are you going to stop being hateful and saying hateful things about people for being who they are, or it okay for you to be hateful and spread hate, but not for anyone else? You're a hypocrite. You make fun of people, call them names, spread lies, put them down for looking the way nature made them, but you only get on your high horse when it involves gay bashing. Why is it okay for you to bash people? In case you take this as an endorsement of gay bashing, it is not. I think it is heinous. But what you do here every single day is heinous, too. You disgust me with your hypocrisy. You're too lazy to work, so you spend all your time putting down other people and making fun of their lives, their looks, their problems, their tragedies. Disgusting. That's you, you, you!!!

    130

    people are murdered everyday….why when they are gay or black does it make the mainstream media?
    because of the liberals. good job america, way to loose your ethics. what about little Mike Fyutrik from Jersey who was shot by a gay man for refusing to take part in intercourse.
    Where is his commercial. It's because gays and lesbians run hollywood. get over yourselves you are no more discriminated agianst then ugly or fat people.
    god damn perez, must you constantly remind everyone of the "Plight of Homosexuality"

    Sounds good. Just keep the government out of it.

  34. Hypocrite says – reply to this


    134

    Perez, I cannot deny that this message is excellent — it's not OK to hate. Does that apply to you, too? Even if you choose not to filter the shameful hate comments tht appear here, your own comments you write about Rumer Willis are equal to, if not worse than cyber bullying. You, yourself, set a horrible example for young people reading your site. Your scathing put downs of older icons, such as Goldie Hawn, fly in the face of your telling us other people shouldn't be discriminated against. I have no hate for you — in fact I love what you are doing and only hope that you can step it up, as Ella says. Can you find it in you to practice what you preach? I know some of you will consider it "cool" to rush to Perez's defense, but this comment really needs to be posted. Messages like this video would carry a lot more weight on your site if you were someone who stood for what it is advocating.

    Re: Don – I can bet a million dollars so are you. When havent you ever used the word gay? havent you hung out with friends and are goofing around or upset bout something not going your way and said "thats gay" in no way refering to someone who actually is gay? but simple using a word. that no a days has completly changed meaning. no longer a word used to put someone down. and for the person who HAD to copy and paste taylors lyrics you obviously do not know what kind of artist she is . she is an amazing person and out of all her song that the one time she uses the word gay and what immature high school teen age girl hasnt said something similiar to that only difference taylor sang about it and by no means did she actually mean he was gay so how is the spreading rumors? all her real fans who listened to ALL her songs know each meaning to each song. because they all are based of her life. so what she used the word because it rhymed and notice how before she write shes crazy and obsessive many women would be offended if a guy said that gosh it is people like you who judge and promote hate. your bulletin was completly trash about taylor. yet you have no clue who she is. FYI she appeared on Ellen twice way before this video was made and thinks perez is funny. so who does her saying the word gay in a innocent song make her a hypercrit. you are the hypercrit and the one spreading more hate.

    144

    Pereziti, THANK YOU for posting this. I am proud to claim my place in my family as third generation gay, but first generation as identifying as out gay. When I think about how much as changed in my 45 years and how hugely different it must have been for my grandfather's gay cousin who I had the pleasure of knowing at the end of his life, I am so thankful to have made the choice to be out; truly there is no other way to live life. It's the scariest and most liberating act a young gay person can engage in and the more secure we make their world the more secure they will make ours.

    Perez- You forgot to mention Sara Bareilles!

  46. SAxlerod says – reply to this


    146

    I'm with you on this one. But the bad thing is that the people who truly need to see this PSA won't see this and won't care. Ignorant people will always not like people who are different. This PSA will enflame many and make the situations even worst. But I do like this as a start of something positive.

    I posted the video clip on myspace and it's already getting others to post it aswell…. yay!!! It is time that we do thing now about it. To bad that there wasn't help for me when I was going to school. I feel for any child that is being teased or tormented by others. I had that happen to me everyday that I went to school. It was so bad that I ended up missing helf of the school year. The kids would make fun of me for being poor and not having the latest clothes. I couldn't help that my mother was a signal mom and had 7 kids to take care of. I even tried to commit suicide to stop the pain that I was feeling from the kids at school. It didn't work obviously and I'm happy with my life now. I have two kids and a wonderful husband and I try to teach my kids to have compassion for others, and to be a friend not a click. I want to change the way kids teach eachother and I can only start with mine.

    Uh, if anyone wants this madness to be stopped, you need to tell the gays before anyone. No one would be like that towards them if they would just accept the fact that their lifestyle is wrong, it's NOT who they are, and they need to realize two people of the same sex CANNOT reproduce!! Gays are de-populating us!! And i feel for the kid, i really do, but how disrespectful towards him and his family to claim that he was killed for his orientation which is COMPLETELY false! If anyone was tuned into the news that day you'd know he had beef with that guy for the longest time over a war of words. The situation never got better, no adults stepped in, it's as simple as a human killing another human for simple hatred. Not all this "killed for wearing makeup and a dress" crap. But of course, any chance they get, the gays will cry for sympathy! And i love how all these artists star in these things do the gays can think they actually support them and go buy their music. It's sick it really is. Reminds me of Hillary and Obama.

    166

    It's a great message but it rarely works. The majority of people who do discriminate believe what they are doing is right, and no matter what we say will stop it in most cases. However, it's definitely important to stand up either way, because even if there are 10 people discriminating, atleast the person being discriminated knows that there is at least one person on his/her side. His death is sad though and I wish these things could be stopped and didn't happen. It's so pointless and I wish people would spread their horizons. I know that was a long reply =/
