    i decided to have a look though the gay and lesbian part of Netflix last night and came across this documentary, i found it out upsetting really to think something so bad had happened to him when he was just getting back on track with his life and the aftermath of it all as well.
    Just wondering if anyone else has seen/heard about this??

    I saw the documentary about a week or 2 ago and I cried a lot.

    It's so sad how people can just kill someone so violently because he was gay. Plus they tricked him by saying they were gay too. smh, poor boy. He didn't deserve this.

    I actually noted his birthday and the day of his death just so I can remember what happened to him and mourn a bit but at the same time gain some courage and determination because his death lead to a lot of people becoming more acceptant of LGBT+.
