If anyone knows where this poor kid is...
May each member of this family die slowly, painfully and soon.
Warning: This is ugly s**t.
A Gofundme set up in Daniel's name has brought in nearly $20,000 in 24 hours.
Wow. Just... wow.
oh dear. It got so ugly and upsetting I had to stop listening before it was over.
Bless that poor boy.
Whoever said ignorance is bliss was a liar.
I hope Ellen Degeneres picks up on his story.
"And I have a lot of friends that are gay, but they are friends, they're not RELATED to me".
How anyone could ever treat their own child this way is beyond my comprehension. I hope he gets the emotional support he needs as well as the financial.

That's terrible. I hope he's okay and that he got out of there and to someplace safe.

I turned the video off before it got going. Because, why is there video? And why would a character, sorry, real person say anything like "I have a lot of friends who are gay..,". The dialogue is unrealistic for a moment of violence.
His mom was right about one thing...he is a son of a bitch.

I dunno. Too many faux victims of non-existent hate crimes have rendered me suspicious.
I get a little weary of the victim-narratives too, Namo. And I have no idea why the young man was taping it all. But something about this rings true to me. Bad dialogue and all.
I had to turn it off. Absolutely heartbreaking.
I can't imagine... it just crushes my soul to know this exists.
Apparently, he came out to the stepmother and father back in October and recorded this because they decided they needed to have some kind of lifestyle intervention.
Ever the celebrity chaser, Dr. Drew interviews Daniel and brings along David Pickup just for kicks
The young man is asking all donations to be made to Lost 'n Found, a shelter serving lgbt youth who've been kicked out of their homes and have nowhere else to go.
Pierce asks for donations to be sent to homeless shelter.
I won't watch it... It sounds to terrible to be real. I hope that guy gets all the support he needs.
