All of these shootings here in the states have me terrified of public places and I fear for my newly out brother attending pride events.
Why are you afraid for your brother?
He was always too shy to say that he is gay.
I'm glad to see you supporting your brother for coming out as gay. I also understand your fear of homophobic people.
I personally think that all the shootings are caused by the bad people.
The shootings are very scary and I understand your fear. As long as you are there for your brother, you can't stop living your life.
