I admire Larry for being so brave at such a young age. I know this story, though very tragic, is touching people and bringing awareness to an issue that is clearly in need of addressing. My heart goes out to you and your family.

I seem to be jaded by so much of what I hear on TV and the news, but when I heard about what happened to this innocent young boy while watching Ellen, my heart sank into very deep, sad place. I also have a son in Junior High and it makes me sad to know that children (yes children) this age are capable of such fear, hatred and will to murder, and actually carry it out. Larry will be in my prayers.

My heart goes out to Larry's friends and family. I'm just so sorry that this has happened. Larry was very curagious to be himself in spite of some of his classmates' intolerance. I would have been proud to call him a friend if I knew him.

I live on the other side of the world from Larry's family, but I cannot express adequately enough how much I feel for your loss. Here in India, sexual orientation is definitely a touchy issue - and I was more convinced of this after participating in the only campus production of the Vagina Monologues in all of South Asia in six years. While many supported the message behind the Monologues, there were a number of people who used it to attack the actresses' performances. To be so brave and be so open, and then to be hurt so violently for it... My deepest, deepest condolences to the family.

We shall never really understand how such unkind actions like this can happen. Condolences to the family,friends,and to those who were traumatized by the actual shooting at school, which will never be the same. Peace.

What a sweet-looking young man.  Kudos to him for knowing who he was and being brave enough to live life on his own terms. He will be missed, even by those of us who'd never had the honor of meeting him. Blessed Be.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I teach a class on race, gender, and sexuality and my students are always shocked to find out that people are still killed because of blurring gender lines or for being gay and not afraid to live it! This should get more media coverage and attention NOW! My thoughts are with you.

I only just now heard of Larry's passing; in one moment, memories of my own junior high and high school years came back in a flash, and how painful and challenging they were. And I cried, for Larry, for anyone who has been bullied or taunted, regardless of the cause; I cried because, as an adult, I'd forgotten how terrible and awful it is to be made fun of; I cried when I read about Larry, and his personality and humor, and saw his photos, and recognized someone who would have grown into a person I would have called a friend. We can't all be saints, and I detest the "PC Police," but we CAN be kind, and we CAN teach our children the basic principles of kindness. Bullying and teasing will never go away; it's almost like nature's hazing process of adolesence. But there is a major difference between "normal" teasing, and fostering such bigotry that outright hatred and murder are the results. Larry, you will not be forgotten. I will try to conduct myself as a better person in your memory.
