After school yesterday my GSA had a meeting/ vigil for Lawrence King. Most of you probably haven't heard of him as his murder was exrodanarily under covered by the media.
Lawrence was was a 15 year old student in Oxnard, California who was murdered last year on Janurary 12 by a fellow classmate. The classmate pulled out a gun during school and shot King in the head- why?- because King was gay. If you want to know more about this tragic event you can google for "Lawrence King"; a fair amount comes up.
