That poor sweet little boy. I just started weeping when I looked that that slideshow. I read the LA Times article, and I could completely identify with him. Although I am 44 now, I will never forget how utterly miserable middle school and high school were for me. I hope his senseless death will spur badly needed changes in how bullying is treated in our school system. This kind of crap has gone on way too long.

it truely is very sad when ever anyone dies especially prematurely but it is a tragedy that this brave young man had to be a martyr like this even here in "The Land of The Free" i never met the young man but i couldn't imagine him as anything other than a strong individual

My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family..

Rest in peace Larry and may you soar among the angels.
A life lost and a legacy born.

my heart breaks.
the world will one day right itself, until then we can only honor Larry by living proud.
his pride set him free.

Please know that the world is with you and that Larry will never be forgotten. I pray from this tragic event that many lives are saved and hearts are opened with acceptance

Larry sounds like such a brave and self aware human being. I so wish that had been rewarded. He was being who he was, not hiding. All I can hope now is that his death is not for nothing. Ignorance and hate is a very dangerous combination.

Im so sorry for your loss. My family sends our prays and support for you at this time of need.

I just found out about this horrible crime today. I hope that some day in the near future, hate crimes will have become a thing of the past, and we can all live peacefully with one another. Your boy did not deserve this end, this abrupt, violent end. I'm sure that he is protecting you, his family, with a beautiful smile on his face. The love you have for him will reach him, where ever he may be.

My Condolences
I feel sorry your loss.

Respectfully
Ryan
