Seth's Law Passes.

Seth's Law Passes.

If you haven't been following the huge amount of lgbt suicides due to bullying this past year, there was one in particular that caught a lot of attention. It was the story of a 13-year-old boy in California named Seth Walsh.

Soon after a battle began to stop schools from looking the other way when students are bullied because of their sexual orientation. That battle ended Friday when Seth's Law was passed. This means that public schools will now be required to create policies for addressing bullying incidents. This is a huge step for a state who repealed their legalizing of gay marriages.

The law passed through the state Senate on Friday and had already been approved by the state Assembly in June, so it now heads to Gov. Jerry Brown for his signature.

This may not affect us much here in Michigan but I like to follow all lgbt advances all over the nation because a victory in California is still a victory and it gives me hope that other states will follow suite.
