On September 22, 2010 Tyler Clementi, 18, jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge. The bridge was located near his school of Rutgers University where he was a freshmen. He was bullied for several months for being gay. On the day of his death about ten minutes before his death he posted to his facebook wall "Jumping off the GW bridge, Sorry". He then got in his car and drove to the bridge. He was spotted by by standers but they were to late. His body was found a day later. The people that pushed him to that were not charged.
Tyler's story is only one of the many you will read. I hope you enjoy but most of all realize that words do hurt. So be kind, be accepting and be loving.
That is a sad story. People need to realize they are not bad. They need to kno that the things they say is very hurtful to people.
