watch: the evolution of the gay rights movement

I'm pretty sure I've been very vocal in my feelings for the need to give equal rights to gays everywhere, but just in case I haven't, I'm posting another video that everyone should really watch.

In 7 minutes, it's the evolution of the movement, from the thought that it was new and weird and unlawful, to the bullying, to the laws helping equal rights happen. If you're anything like me, and you have a heart, you will definitely shed a tear.

It's great to see how far we've really come, but I also think it's important to keep in mind that there's still a long way to go. Either way, that video does show some promise.

Here's to hoping that "the end" is a lot nearer in time than "the beginning" is from right now.
