Joel Burns tells gay teens "it gets better"

An emotional plea for tolerance of gay youth from Fort Worth City Councilman Joel Burns has quickly become one of the Web's most-watched videos this week, catapulting the elected official to the forefront of a larger movement to prevent suicide among gay teens.

Burns used his allotted time at last Tuesday's council meeting to share his own story of being bullied as a young gay man, breaking down into tears. Burns also shared the stories of a rash of recent gay teen suicides.
