I don't often go against the wishes of the victim's parents, but I don't want to see another child die simply for being who they are.

DA

I know Avery felt forgiveness towards Darius.

Eric Parker

Darius: I just wanted to talk to Avery.
DA: Talk, or tease?
Darius: A little bit of both, I guess.

Then why didn't he push someone else off the bridge?

DA

I know it's no excuse, but Darius has had little exposure to transgender people.

Teacher

I wish the DA had come to the service. Avery was all about forgiveness.

Avery's mother

My son got the crap kicked out of him when he was a boy because he was gay. No one ever apologized.

Fin

Darius: I was afraid.
Lawyer: How do you think Avery felt?

What makes a boy decide to be a girl? I mean, is it cause he likes boys and doesn't want to be gay?

Sonny

Darius' Mom: Darius. Why would you do that?
Darius: I didn't want my friends to think I was gay.

That boy goes around dressed like a girl. You should be talking to his parents, not my son.

Darius' Mom

Let me be clear. This behavior is in no way indicative of our community. We strive for inclusion.
