In Oxnard, California a family is blaming the school district for their son behavior. Eight-grader Larry King(15) wore makeup and dressed in feminine clothing. He was shot to death in February by his classmate Brandon McInerney. Brandon plead not guilty and is being charged as an adult. He also is facing a charge of committing a hate crime. The family is claiming the E.O. Green Junior High School administrators and teachers did not enforce the school’s dress code. From what I have read on this story Larry could wear women clothes. The handbook basically said as long as he was not a distraction it was okay. He was taken from his mother at two and was being raised by Greg and Dawn King. Since they have been raising him since he was two they should have been stopping him. I know he was 15 and you cannot tell them nothing. But, you cannot blame the school when you could not deal with him.

There is so much to this story that I cannot talk about everything in this post. Here is a link to the story done on this from Newsweek done in July: http://www.newsweek.com/id/147790 It talks about Larry be influenced by the assistant principal who was openly gay. How he accused his father of hitting him. It is believed to be a lie. I do not like to hear about people lying about something so serious as being abused. Brandon the boy that shot Larry was kind of provoked. I know that there is no excuse for murder. But, this kid as a hard life and is left alone all the time. He is reading Hitler and World War 2 stuff. When this first happened the media just said he was murdered because he asked the boy to be his valentine. In reality Larry was telling everyone they were together and broke up. He made passes at a lot of guys but they did not kill him. There is nothing wrong with being gay. Larry knew Brandon and the other guys were not gay but he had to get attention. I think he took things a little bit to far. But, like I said he did not deserve to be killed. So, please do not think I am saying it was Larry fault. I am just writing what I have got out of the reading. Check out the link and see what I am talking about and see what you think.
