Nobody's children deserves it. They are just fine the way they are. We call on all Americans to examine their own hears with Matthew's parents and say stop the violence. We cannot let this happen to anyone's child again. Thompson explained his hope in brining people together to stop violence.
Hate crimes happen too often.
We can stop it. We have to teach out children that hate is wrong. That violence is wrong. Even if there are only five people, we are going to walk. Judy Shepard will be the keynote speaker at the kickoff in Seattle, Thompson said.
