I think I made the point that Shephard's death was heinous and a tragedy under any circumstance (at least I tried). I don't believe that being murdered because you are a homosexual is any more tragic than because you are black, a Jew, white, ugly, fat, etc. Murder is murder. They are all tragedies. JLA

Where is the wisdom in sending our children, or ourselves to a culture where they are encouraged to put themselves in the most vulnerable position a human being could ever allow themselves to be (intoxicated) with the goal of going off to an unknown destination, with a stranger and availing their sexuality to this person? I agree with you 100 percent. The "the good times" lifestyle romanticized by the media and permitted by parents in this country constantly puts young people at risk of alcohol poisoning, drug overdose, sexual disease, and violence. I don't believe this cultural problem can be solved on a governmental level, however.
