    The remains of Matthew Shepard — whose brutal murder in 1998 became an important part of the fight against homophobia in America — will be interred at Washington National Cathedral later this month.https://n.pr/2ywAl9r

        The National Cathedral isn't Catholic, but non denominational.

        The bench honoring him at the University of Wyoming is a special place. He truly deserves to be in this extraordinary special place forever.

        Bless his wonderful parents and family. But, I’m so sad that there are still people like Mike Pence who still deny the LBGT community equal rights. We still have a lot of fight to do.... VOTE

        I wonder how his mother and father would think about you. Oh wait. I know they would love you with open arms because I know them and they loved me with open arms. The loss of their son, brutally beaten and left (still alive) for dead tied to a fence. Just stfu

        Liars! You "forgot" somehow to mention that, despite all the caterwauling of the homosexual lobby about "anti-gay hate", that Shepard was actually MURDERED BY ANOTHER HOMOSEXUAL. Mustn't let a little thing like the truth get in the way of the homosexual propaganda campaign. RT

        There’s is absolutely no evidence to back up that claim. It’s a conspiracy theory that’s been debunked several times
