my deepest sincerest sympathies to the family and friends of Larry. What a tragedy. I am very proud of Larry for standing up for what he believed in. He is an American Idol and his death will only be in vain if we as humans allow it to be. We need to recognize that Larry paid the ultimate price for gays and lesbians all over the world to become more free. We need to now act upon this tragedy and go to local school board meetings and ask what is our schools doing to teach our children tolerance. This is unacceptable not to mention a kid having a gun at school. I will not let Larry's death be in vain. I be an extension of him and stand up for him and his legacy. My thoughts and prayer to all gay and lesbian children through the world. Don't let this tragedy discourage you but let it motivate you to make change......for Larry.

I'm horrified that something like this could happen. My condolences to the families of both Larry, and the shooter. I hope time and support will help ease the pain. I also hope young children will be better educated about homosexuality. I myself was ignorant and intolerant of it until high school when I met great people, who just happened to be gay.

OUR THOUGHTS are with your family and please know that our organization is doing everything we can to help STOP the SENSELESS, HATEFUL violence that Larry and so many others have so tragically suffered! http://www.tumbleweed.org/GreenHouseProject.html

I am so sorry for your loss. This is the first I have heard of this horrible incident. This is so unfair and tragic. He was beautiful.

I learned of this horrible tragedy via the Ellen show. Her words were some of the most touching I have heard. I am so very sorry to the family and friends of this young boy. He, nor anyone else, deserves such a thing. Something needs to be done to help protect others in the same sort of situation. This proves it more than ever.

My Adonai curse the ground of the person who shed Larry's blood my Adonai curse the life of him who murders, may Adonai deal justly with those who rasied a murdered. May the eaarth shake and the water turn to blood if justice is not given for this life taken from those who loved him and the world which needed him.
All my prayers all my heart, all my soul are with you.
upon reading this i was reminded of my own experiences in school, the hatred that is bred from ignorance and fueled by our "open minded" culture.
My tears have fallen for you, larry you can hear and see the crying, you can hear the dreams all had for you, you are ever with those you loved. In truth you never died you steped into life everylasting Psalms 9:9 "the Lord is a refuge for the oppressed a stronghold in times of trouble"
Adonai bless you and keep you and may He make His face shine upon you

I am so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful child. Noone should feel the pain that you have. Larry you are in my thoughts and prayers. You are now a special ANGEL watching over your family.
