Sobbing. This is so painful/uplifting. PLEASE watch it all the way through, beginning to end.
Fort Worth City Councilman Joel Burns reaches out to GLBT teens with a personal story and a message of hope.
"Give yourself a chance... It WILL get better... You'll never have to deal with those jerks again, if you don't want to."
"Please stick around to make those happy memories for yourself... Please live long enough to be there to see it."
"Attitudes will change. Life will get better."
