Van Nguyen, an openly gay citizen, should be socially accepted by the modern environment.

Local Californian student and minor, Van Nguyen, feels as if though "coming out of the closet" has done more harm to him than love and acceptance. In fact, quite the opposite effect took place once he noticed death threats and hate mail sent to his home. Even secluded from school friends, they have abandoned him once he announced his sexuality on popular media website "Facebook", admitting to participating in homosexual curiosity. This boy deserves more than acceptance: This boy deserves equality, as well as love.
