Sorry. There are lots of things we despise that in a free society we have to, at most politely ignore. Obnoxious white cap wearing Jock-straps annoyed me in high school, but I just told them to (expletive) off and ignored them.

The kid was obviously starved for attention, like so many other kids his age. This does NOT mean that he should be killed just because some mouth breather hated his lifestyle.

I dont think that it was the lifestyle, I think it was the harrassment.

Did you read the article? Nowhere does it mention that Brandon hated Larry’s “lifestyle”.

OMG, we’ve read stories about 6 yr. olds being charged with sexual harassment for hugging, middle schoolers being charged with sexual harassment for swatting girls on the rear end and yet this confused boy thought it was okay day in and day out harass the other boy.

This is a terrible story about adults being too frightened to deal with a volatile situation.

Kids need boundries, whether they are gay or not. Middle school is hard enough, it is an awkward time for all kids. I’m sorry but allowing Larry to act out the way he did was wrong. Do I think he deserved to be killed? No, but please this whole situation was out of control because of a political agenda.
