Anybody Heard About This

[erpowers]

There is a post at the website alternet.org in which Ellen Degeneres talks about a 15 year old boy, named Lawrence King, who was killed because he was gay. Apparently, the boy asked a guy named Brandon to be his Valentine. As a result Brandon killed the guy. I think this a very sad story.

1. There was a lot of talk about the shooting last week,

but I hadn't heard any of the backstory - the valentine and stuff.

2. I caught just part of the show yesterday as she was finishing up a

segment about a boy that was killed because he was gay. I missed the details though...
