The RIDDLE
What EXISTS in EVERY corner of the WORLD - embraced and celebrated in some countries BUT is ILLEGAL in 76 countries? What is HIDDEN for FEAR of public SHAME, IMPRISONMENT, TORTURE or even the DEATH penalty in 7 countries?? ? What TEARS FAMILIES apart? What makes people confront the RISK of brutal VIOLENCE on a DAILY basis? What gets CHILDREN KICKED OUT of homes, Students BULLIED and EXPELLED from schools and Workers FIRED from JOBS without warning? Second-Class Citizens? What has EXISTED in EVERY COUNTRY throughout history but some people still consider "ABNORMAL"?
The ANSWER
Being GAY, being LESBIAN, BISEXUAL or TRANSGENDER! All over the world MILLIONS of PEOPLE face VIOLENCE and DISCRIMINATION. JUST for BEING who THEY ARE!
EVERY NATION is OBLIGATED by INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS LAW to PROTECT ALL Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender people from TORTURE, DISCRIMINATION and VIOLENCE
The UNITED NATIONS has one simple MESSAGE to the millions of LGBT people around the world:
YOU ARE NOT ALONE! LGBT rights are HUMAN RIGHTS!!!
