i have never personally been a victim of a hate crime. Nor have a i observed one.
i've lived in relatively peaceful suburbia most of my life. unfortunately i daily deal with a family that is less than accepting of homosexuality and non-mormons. it is exhausting. intolerance is everywhere. unfortunately too many people allow stereotypes to govern their behaviors.
