Fifteen years after Matthew Shepard’s murder, Wyoming remains anti-gay

In memory of Matthew Shepard“Fifteen years after Matthew Shepard’s murder, Wyoming remains anti-gay” is the title of a article in The Guardian newspaper.

Please can you all take the time to read the article @ www.theguardian.com/world/2013/oct/10/matthew-shepard-wyoming-gay-rights-laws.
