This is about human rights and us gay men deserve exactly the same rights as anyone else, He lived with his partner for 6 years, shared a mortgage and shared a business. They were best friends and in love and he was denied to say goodbye or even find out exactly what happened from the hospital.

If this was a straight couple who had been together for over half a decade then im sure the partner would be allowed to visit the body or get some closure on what happened after such a tragedy.

You cannot assume he commited suicide either, have you ever heard of accidental death?

I would be devistated if this happened to me but no redneck family threatening me with physical violence would not keep me away from the funeral.

**** the legal system, this should be about equality, compassion and respect for anyone grieving the loss of someone they were in love with.

Its like they totally pretended he never existed and was left totally alone with no closure on his relationship.

wow, you are LYING about what i said. i'm not going to bother with you if you are going to just be hysterical and unable to have a conversation.

I clearly stated that i absolutely support gay rights.

I said the video looked highly edited (which it is) and i don't feel comfortable jumping to any conclusions. you havn't heard all sides of the story, and from what i've seen in this video it seems specifically edited with music and clips to play on peoples emotions. You have no idea about the true story when you watch such a highly edited film clearly from 1 point of view which doesn't present any other view points. You can accept clear cut heroes and villians all you like, all i'm saying is that this video is clearly made from a very emotional view point from just 1 side.

How does that mean that i'm against equality? i'm not.

You've heard one side, and you automatically assume the family are rednecks? so you've already shown yur prejudice, yu have no idea if they are "rednecks" or not, whatever that even means.

All i said is that when i see video's edited in this way, it raises red flags with me, because the maker was clearly using editing and music to play on emotions, and that type of manipulation can be very persuassive.
