How the hell can he have been found NOT GUILTY???? He brought a handgun to school and shot a kid. That's premeditation!!

Ugh! I hate discrimination! Awesome story by the way man. I'm proud of you.

First I would like to say : I loved your one shot. I have read a good majority of your stories & have enjoyed every single on of them.
Second I would like to say: What happened to that boy was tragic. (To say the least) I am out of school now(have been for sometime)but I remember the bullying for being "different". Now I am also bisexual, but I didn't come out till I was 20, so by then, there was no more bullying. But my brother was bullied in 7th grade (he is 12th now) because kids thought he was gay. (But in fact, he is straight) It is not right. And the kids who bully those for being different really need to look at themselves once. Since reading your story, I might participate in the day of silence thing, as well as inform my fiance' (girlfriend) of this, and see if she would like to participate as well.
Your story was lovely.

wow that was sad what happen to Lawrence King. I believe people should be able to express there individuality. my brother hated bill when he saw him on t.v because he thought he was a fag that was protraying a women and that it was wrong for him to make people think he was female. but this was he reaction after I told him he was a boy. before I told him bill was not a girl he was like who's the hot babe that's in that rock band she's beautiful. his action's were wrong and he shouldn't react like that especially being told that his style is offensive. see he dresses like tom and acts black and he's blond with blue eye's. he gets mad when people call him a wankster. he has mostly african american friends so he doesn't see his style as wrong. people that first see him judge him just like he did with bill. and he didn't see that he was wrong. I just don't understand how people who are bulled for their style can just bully someone else just a vicious cycle.

it was very enlightening and I felt that McInerney should have got premeditated murder because his actions prove he planned to kill Lawrence ahead of time. he got away with it what is wrong with our judicial system.

I use to judge people by their sexual orientation but I realized that it's not a choice who you love and everyone should have the freedom to live their own life the way they feel. all because of prop 8 in california. one of my friend who's like a sister is a lesbian since forever. and I just treated her different always thinking that her girlfriends were just her friends she was hanging out with. and her real sister disowned her when she came out. but it shouldn't have been a surpise to anyone that she was because she was all dressed as a boy. but her family told her that she was discusting and going to hell. I thought that was wrong she was their family. I never treated her different but then when voting came out I said to her that I don't believe that marriage should be between the same sex. and don't get me wrong I'm not religious most say I'm athiest but I'm not I just don't believe that their's somethings out their controling our fate. and I believe in bigband theory and evolution which don't particularly go with religion. so I just don't see that being with the same sex as anatomically correct. and survival needs reproduction and you can't with those relationships. but know I realize my biological side makes me wrong because writing papers on homosexuality has made me believe that it's not a choice your born that way. so I won't take away people rights. I wouldn't want that. everyone should have rights to be who they choice to be as long as their not hurting anyone with their choice. oh I said no on the prop but it passed because of lies about teaching children about sexuality in school. that's why church and state are supposed to be separated but we seem to not care.

well on a brighter note the story was cute. I like that they had a little romantic getaway.

thats sad, really sad.

the story great was great! um there were some spelling problems..um close..is asa in closing a door, i think your were meaning, clothes=material and butt - bottom(aka the thing you sit on lol) sorry im such a nut...I a preschool teacher so..yea. im not meaning to offend u or anything.

Hey...
the day of silence thing..
i remember the story from last years. its such a sad story. i almost cried when i first heard it. it always makes me sad when i hear stories like that. where i live, getting messed with is really common. it always amazes me how judgemental people really are. im a senior in high school, and still get treated like shit because im different. i have a very close knit group of friends. Last year there was this girl that decided to jump all of my clossest friends, including myself. she got one of the girls, shoved me out of the way to get to her. we have a restraining order against her now, because it happened at school. her sole reason for doing it was because were very different from the people we go to school with. this was not long before the day of silence for last year. i organize it at my school. im glad someone else sees how horrible these hate crimes are.

I liked your stoyr but I'm more interested in the Larry King stuff. I feel terribel for Larry and I know that shouldn't have happened to him but I also feel bad for his killer too. I looked him up and his life was seriously fucked up. That's not to say he shouldn't be punished, or at least gotten help.

I don't know how thought out the murder was but I'm sure somewhere inside of him he regrets it.

Still, it's not fair to larry.

I don't really know what to say... I don't know how to make it better other than to speak out for gay rights/acceptance.

I feel shitty about that Lawrence King boy.
it makes me so angry that his life ended just because he was gay =(
what kind of world do we live in? o.0

but the smut was HAWT WOOOT.
