My heart goes out to your family, the students, and all of the families who are affected by this tragedy. I pray that this crime will open the eyes of the intolerant and inspire those with the courage to make a difference in this world. Lawrence's family and friends are in my constant thoughts and prayers. May God be with you all in this time of mourning. There will come better days. God Bless

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

In 1963, Martin Luther King said:
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."
maybe 45 years later, we should at last continue this journey. All human beings are equal, in America and in the whole world!
I'm so sorry that Larry was the victim of hate and intolerance. We must protect our children and we must teach and show them that love is the right answer.
Rest in peace, brave young man!

something tragic like this needs to open up peoples eyes, that everyone is human and no matter what their beliefs they should not be shot down in dismay or in tragedy like larry, larry was a very brave young soul who was taken too early from his life, they say the good die young and once again we lost one of the very best. I pray for Larry and his family and anyone who was affected by this absolute horrific crime. May god rest his soul. God Bless

I am extremely saddened to hear about this very horrible tragedy. I have a gay son whom I love very much. It breaks my heart that people think being gay is bad. It's not. I think gay people are the most courageous people around because it takes alot to come out and then deal with whatever family members, friends or even people that don't know them personally react to it, even when it's hateful. Please, let's stop the hate. Love people for who they are. You might be missing out on one of the most special people that can ever come into your life.

Im crying right now inside for this young man and his family. Im a gay teen, and I it hurts to see that this kid wont be able to see his family anymore, go on to high school, college, or realize the many joys in life that we will. Being a gay teen I have taken for granted everything ive been blessed with as we all do. My heart goes out to his family, and I pray that this child is in heaven with our father, and we will see him again.
I didnt know him, but I went through what he did as a 15 year old. He did not deserve that, no one does. Lets pray that another teen wont have suffer the same fate he did. Through his death i hope people realize that something must change.

I am so sorry for your family. My heart goes out to you.

I heard about this from Ellen Degeneres, I'm so sorry for your loss. He looked like such a great kid.

One thing that is not being said about Larry here (or any where else), is how brave he was. Larry was doing what he wanted to do and the guts to do it regardless of what others thought. How many adults can say that! When I think of this beautiful young man I think about what a wonderful brave human he was and that his soul is. God Bless you Larry for being yourself! You are my hero!

My friend J. Eight, told me about this story- and i am sooo sad to hear about this. Rest In Peace. My Heart goes out to his family and friends.
