Well said Ellen, and the positive response of the audience was great too. The page on her website is here http://ellen.warnerbros.com/2008/02/a_tragedy_that_should_never_ha.php
I love Ellen. Hearing her say "I am not a second class citizen. It is OK to be gay" really made me feel so great, so good in myself.
Wow good on her for expressing that on TV, and focusing on society's role in it, rather than Brandon's.
Wow, great audience reactions! I don't expect many anti-gay people to show up for an episode of Ellen, but still...
