I am heartbroken and appalled over the suicide of Rutgers University student Tyler Clementi. I think his roommate and classmate should be charged with manslaughter or wrongful death for their disgusting actions. Not just invasion of privacy. What were these 2 morons thinking? It is bad enough that everyone is so self-involved that we have to tweet about everything or update facebook statuses every time we cough, sneeze or pass gas. But to turn on the webcam and broadcast another person's intimate moments to the whole world? In what universe is this behavior acceptable, funny, or amusing? This issue not just affects the LGBT community. It affects everyone. Because hatred and bigotry degrades everybody.

It won't bring Tyler back to life, but I would take delight in knowing that the 2 idiots responsible for his death would be spending the rest of their sorry lives in prison.
