My heart breaks when reading Larry's story. As a parent and as a sister to a brother who was bullied and tortured throughout his childhood and H.S. years I am angered and saddened that school's including our country have not taken the necessary steps to make bullying a crime. NO person should ever be pushed to the point of hopelessness nor should there lives be taken from them. We as parents need to educate our children and raise them not to be bullies and to be brave to stand up against bullying. Parents need to be involved because these children are influenced so easily and most time dont know any good. My prayers to your family! Larry I know your resting in peace and you are an inspiration for all kids to be themselves! Your time here on earth was very meaningful!

My thoughts and prayers go out to the parents, teachers and all the students who had to witness all this. It should have never happened. May this beautiful little boy RIP! Another thing that's on my mind is that if every parent paid more attention to what their child brings to school (a gun) and especailly to who their children are hanging around with sometimes things like this don't happen! RIP may god always be with you.

I am so sorry for your loss, I know Larry is at peace now and that you miss him, but he is free now and still lving you.

I am so sorry for this. I am an eighth grader also, and I am LGBT. I haven't come out yet, but I can definitely imagine the horrific bullying that Larry must've gone through. I hope he has been carried to heaven on the wings of Angels and become free of this torture. May he rest in peace~ <3

I just heard of your very sad and unfortunate story ~ please accept my sincere condolences. And may justice prevail.

I am so sorry your son was bullied and murdered. What a horrible thing. My heart just breaks for all of you. Just know that
there are a lot of us out here in America that are praying for you all.

I pray that Larry has peace now.

What a brave and beautiful angel. My thoughts are with his family. I will use Larry's story to keep a dialog open and ongoing with my kids about bullying and discrimination. May Larry r.i.p knowing his story has inspired so many.

i was on my pc when i heard this story on cnn. my mom was watching and i just stopped what i was doing and listened from my room. it really made me stop and think of how bad bullying has become. what a sad story. my prayers are with larry and his family. we are all different, people should see the beauty in that.

Did not deserve to go like this . its just disgusting to see this happen to teenagers as young as 14 ... R.I.P
