Anti-gay bullying victim kills self

After enduring daily taunts of being gay and having no one to turn to despite his mother's pleas to the school for help, 11-year-old Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover hung himself with an extension cord on Monday, unable to cope with any more of the torture. This is at least the fourth suicide of a middle-school aged child linked to bullying this year.
