Agreed.

Saw this tweet the today and LOVED it. 

Not only because I'm a Harry Potter geek, but because it is so true and on point.

Tweet of the Day: Never thought I’d say this, but Voldemort’s got a point.

In the past couple of weeks, there has been a string of gay teen suicides as the result of bullying and Hollywood blogger Perez Hilton has been blowing up twitter and his site on how America should take a stand. Now I agree that no one should be bullied and that Americans should stand by the rights of everyone to be able to go to school without fearing physical or emotional beat downs, but I do have a few arguments on Mr. Hilton's approach.

1. Perez Hilton's been tweeting that gay teens have a much higher suicide rate that straight teens and should be reached out to more - now that grinds my gears. 

First of all, don't be biased - no one deserves more support than the other. Straight, gay, bi, black, white, tall, short, it doesn't matter. Suicide is suicide and it's heartbreaking regardless of who it is. 

2. Whooooo the hell is Perez Hilton to talk about bullying!?! This is the guy who built a blog just to bully celebs! This is the guy that tortures Lindsay Lohan and other celebrities by giving them mean nicknames and then drawing inappropriate drawings on their face, as well as other parts.

What a hypocrite.
