"'At least this article mentions the higher suicide rate of gay teens. '

That's actually a canard often repeated by the pro-sodomy crowd.

The truth is that "gay" teens have higher suicide attempts...the actuall successful suicide rates are no different than the heterosexual community."

Why would gay advocacy groups have propoganda saying they have more suicide rates?

Anyway, the times I've seen statistics about higher suicide rates have come from articles revealing a number of statistics showing health and mental problems associated with homosexuality. I'm being a little lazy here not pulling up a quote, but I'm pretty sure if you search on the web site for Concerned Women of America or Focus on the Family, you'll see what I'm talking about. Oxford University also had a study showing the same.
