Homophobic Bullying Kills

This is terrible:

A girl of 14 committed suicide because she was taunted by bullies who called her a lesbian and laughed at her dress sense.

Belinda Allen hanged herself from a tree using a scarf outside a social club after enduring more than a year of taunts.

One of Allen's shocked friends knew about the bullying, but thought the girl took it in stride: "I didn't know how badly she had taken it. On the outside she was happy and bubbly."
