	The murder of any 14 year old is unjustifiable. But similar tragic events have happened since time immemorial. Schools share some blame for lack of educational programs directed at the issue. But programs advocated by the GBLT deny natural realities and exacerbate the situation. Assaults of lesbians by natural females resulting from sexual advances are rare. Natural females view advances by lesbians as either amusing or flattering and serious conflict in this area is minimal. Gay-‘straight male’ contact is something quite different. Throughout the animal kingdom aggression and competition defines male sexual behavior. It is a deadly serious area of natural behavior. The sexual identity of heterosexual males is ultimately the most important aspect of their existence. Threatening or compromising this identity is the single cause of violence against lesbians and gays by male heterosexuals. Nature dictates gays will remain a minority and educational programs should be structured thusly. The programs should not target heterosexuals but gay survival in the natural world. Had Brandon hit Larry a non fatal blow up beside the head with a club in response to his loathsome advances this case would have powerful educational value. It would serve exemplary to gay males the seriousness of approaching potential partners. Teen lesbians could benefit in learning the consequences of intruding on natural relationships without the physical trauma of experience; having their teeth knocked down their throats or their female bones snapped like twigs by enraging the awesome physical power of the human heterosexual male who, by natural design, will continue to dominate the species. It’s just common sense Guest
