S. and I found the Hall posting on the Bloomington Community and mailed links out to pretty much everyone we knew. Nationally. Including to some people who have the means to publicize it further. And S. wrote to our local and national representatives about hate crime laws in IN.

What angered me, I think, as much as anything else, was the way in which certain people commenting on the posting over there got angry at the writer, calling it sensationalistic and over-blown. Now admittedly, it isn't the most well-written piece I've ever seen. But the fact even I, who live so close to where this happened and keep apprised of current events, didn't know about it means that in whatever form, it was important to get the info out there.
