As someone who is bisexual your story really speaks to me. Thank you for standing up for your rights and in turn the rights of all people in the LGBTQ community!

My question: What can we do to make sure that something like this doesn't happen again?

That's really horrible. When I make statements like "Our country needs to get its priorities straight," I usually get a lot of bite back by people who tell me that the United States is great and that I'll get a lot more freedom here than in other countries.

This is partially true, but what I usually retort with is that there's no reason for our country to stop in its tracks now. Just because we have it good doesn't mean we can't have it better, and I think that's what scares a lot of people into not advocating for gay rights and the like.

They see that our country is well off compared to others and they think that we can't go any further, but we can! I hope that in your position you keep pushing to achieve the goal of equality for all, and I'll try to do the same! Good luck to you, and again, thank you so much! You're doing more for the LGBTQ community than probably even you know!
