Ya Having A Good Time, Boys?

Happy Anniversary, Boys.

Traveling along I-90 west from South Dakota into Wyoming to visit Devil’s Tower Monument, one of the first sights to see are those gray, aged wooden fences where two boys posted the body of Matthew Shepard ten years ago today.

The two murders’ names aren’t important. Their life sentences were well served with their act that took the life of an innocent 21-year old man of a different sexual orientation than their own.

What is most notable is that they are behind steel bars. With other men. For the rest of their lives. May they spend their days and nights getting their own just deserves from other cellmates.

Have a nice life, boys
