B4 BY DAN MORSE The driver of a tour bus that
crashed along Interstate 270 died of a heart attack just before the bus tumbled down a 45-foot embankment, state police offi- cials saidMonday. Autopsy results confirmed ac-
counts provided by passengers that Joseph A. Clabaugh, 66, was sweating profusely Wednesday afternoon as the bus started bumping along a guardrail along an HOV ramp in Bethesda. “We started veering to the
left,” passenger Sally Currie said in an interviewMonday. “I stood up and tapped himon the shoul- der, and I said: ‘Hey, sir. Is everything okay?’ And with that he slumped over.” Currie said that she saw the
driver’s eyes roll back and that he appeared to lose consciousness. She tried to grab the steering
wheel and change the bus’s di- rection. But the position of the
drivermade that difficult. “Itwas a futile effort. . . . That’s when we

PETULA DVORAK For gay teens, the world is still far from accepting dvorak from B1
homosexuality with a fervor that can be frightening. Just take a look at the Supreme Court’s docket this week, where the Rev. FredW. Phelps will insist that it’s his
right to devastate a mourning family with his hateful, horrid, anti-gay protests at soldiers’ funerals. And technology affords a
handful of newfronts for bullies to harass and humiliate: Facebook wall posts can be seen
by more eyes than any bathroom wall graffiti, and Twitter can outrun all playground gossip. Relentless texts and e-mails pound a young soul to a pulp as bullies hide behind anonymous e-mails and whittle away at any sense of safety.

It also appears that some of
our nation’s grown-ups have set a deplorable standard, without the help of a blog. The teens at SMYAL told me horrible things about the way they were treated by the adults who should be protecting them. Cole still remembers being
slapped across the face when she was 14 and told her family that she was gay. And she still remembers their shock a few years later when she announced that she is transgender and began taking female hormones. Many LGBT kids get kicked
out of their homes by their mom, dad, grandmother or auntie. They’ve been forced into Bible study for “reeducation” and humiliated in front of entire church congregations. They’ve dropped out of school because they get jumped every day. None of the teens I talked with
was all that surprised by the recent rash of gay youth suicides across the country. I got a smirk, an eyebrow
raised, a head-thrown-back laugh from them when I asked. “Guuurl? You think it’s easy
for us out there?” “I met one kid who was
carrying a hammer in his backpack to school every day, just so he could defend himself,” said Cortez Riley, 22, who can understand that kind of logic.He had it pretty rough growing up gay in Charles County. He heard his teachers loudly
