If you haven't heard or read about this yet, Lawrence King was a student in a California high school who was killed by a fellow classmate, reportedly because of his sexual orientation. Lawrence was open about his sexuality and, according to some classmates, walked into school with makeup and feminie jewelry. His family,
especially, is in my prayers, as are all of his friends and loved ones. With all the inevitable media coverage of this tragedy, I think it's easy to lose sight of the person who's life ended so abruptly. Just remember, as you read news articles about gay community's involvement or the response from the political sector, you remember Lawrence King and honor his life by observing his death. May you rest in peace, Lawrence.
With love,
Your Spy
