My heart hurts thinking about Laurence and all the others living with and dying from this kind of hate. I grew up Gay in Santa Barbara. I see Laurence's face and see my own. I will never forget him.

l think it's sad what happened to him he didnt deserve that and who ever did this you should be killed personly because that boy didn't deserve what was coming to me YOU f**kING BASTARD

This story deeply saddens me, and my sympathy goes out to all of those who knew Larry. I hope that some day we might live in a world in which it is okay for someone to express their sexuality and not be victimized for it. Hopefully this doesn't have to happen anymore in the future.

I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THE LAST I MITE NOT KNOW LARRY BUT THE SOME BLOOD THAT RUNS THOUGTH MY BODY RUNED THOUGHT HIS BODY AND IT MAKE HIM MY BROTHER I FEEL THE PAIN THE FAMLY IS GOING THOUGTH. CUZ NO ONE SHOULD TAKE NO ONE LIFE AWAY. WE ARE THE SAME IN GOD EYES

MY PRAYER ARE WITH YOU. HIS POEM IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SHOWS HIS PARENTS RAISED HIM WITH FAITH. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY BUT BE STRONGE AND HE WILL ALWAYS BE AROUND YOU. MY SELF BEING A PARENT WOULDN'T KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH THIS. I DID HAVE TO BURY MY CHILDRENS FATHER AT A YOUNG AGE. WHILE BEING PREGANT WITH OUR SON. I WILL PRAY FOR LARRY AND HIS FAMILY AS WELL. MY GOD GUIDE AND GIVE YOU THE STRENGTH TO COPE WITH YOUR LOSE.

i didnt know larry but when i watched the video on youtube i really started crying because it hurts so much to see that kids can be so cruel and take away his life just because he was different. it just dont make sense.R.I.P LAWRENCE "LARRY" FOBES KING

I am very truly sorry to Larrys loved ones, I feel this is one of the most hateful crimes anyone could commit. May he rest in peace and be remembered for his kindness and his laughter. I feel discusted that this event was not publicised more, if anything it should be known world wide. My condolences again. Larry, keep on truckin' =]
