North Carolina passes a bill that Protects LGBT kids
The North Carolina house and senate passes a bill that protects students bullied for their perceived or actual sexual orientation or gender identity.
Now the bill goes to Gov. Beverly Perdue, so she can to sign it into law.
This is great news for LGBT youth who are teased and bullied for being themselves. Great news.
Here's a great quote from Dems representative, Grier Martin:
"To oppose this bill because you object to [gay or transgender people] is to fight the culture wars on the back of a child."So True

- I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here
