This story is the saddest I've ever heard. I am 16 now and I'm from Portugal.
Homophobia is everywhere, not just in USA. It's horrible what people say and what they think. No one chooses to be gay. Larry just wanted to be accepted, he just wanted to be loved, he just wanted to be happy. And he loved Brandon. How's that even possible? I am so sorry. Humans say that they believe in God and that being gay is wrong. Murdering someone, murdering an innocent kid...that is wrong. And whoever uses religion to attack gay people is just being a coward. God does not hate anyone. God is LOVE.
And although I did not knew you, I love you Larry. And I love your parents. And I am so sorry for what you've suffered.

im not happy how this young boy's life was taken away from him nd his still greveing family it is tatol disrespect to the gay comeuite and i hope the killer dies in prision nd his family gose down as the worst parents ever rip littile larry king

Today at my school we had our day of silence in memory larry. its very sad what happened and shouldnt happen to anyone but he's my hero also. i just wish that some people werent so cruel.

It is a tragedy that such horrible things have hurt the GLBT community. i myself am bisexual and plan to take part in the day of silence. I pray for you and wish you the best

Friday is the Day of Silence. I promise to help to keep his memory alive and to work for the tolerance and civil rights of the GLBT community. May G-d continue to protect Larry and his family. "O Lord, grant that this night we may sleep in peace. And that in the morning our awakening may also be in peace. May our daytime be cloaked in your peace.
Protect us and inspire us to think and act only out of love.Keep far from us all evil; may our paths be free from all obstacles from when we go out until we return home."
Remember,Never again.

ive knows about your death for some time now.. it was march of '08 i think i heard about what happened from gslen. they sent me an email about it. i was devastated that someone would even think of doing something like that to someone else. regardless. i held a day of silence the next day in memory of you. now im in 10th grade doing a presentation about homophobic bullying. im dedicating the entire presentation to you. never knew you dude, but i wish your family well.
love you dude. - aaron guzman/inuyashafreak64
