Ellen DeGeneres broke from comedy for a few minutes on the show she taped today and got deadly serious.
Ellen looked into camera and talked about the murder of Lawrence King, a 15-year-old student in Oxnard, Ca. King, who was gay, was allegedly shot to death by a fellow male student whom he asked to be his Valentine.
Ellen was on the verge of tears and as close to political as she gets. The show airs tomorrow, check local listings.

512. BRAVO ELLEN! I'm so glad she took the time to address this issue and bring it to the American population's attention. Acts of hatred like this happen every day - I see and hear it at school all the time. It's time for us to take a stand against ALL hatred and bigotry.

I appreciate your comment, you speak my mind
Why a gay person should be careful who he/she is expressing their feeling for and a straight person can express their feeling to whoever he/she wants?
It's terrible to know that some people think it is more acceptable to kill a gay person than a man asking another man out
Another boy was killed! If people keep just thinking about themselves but not for others, if they keep believing that hate or apply violence on people who are different from them is nothing wrong. All you will see are more victims and broken hearts
BRAVO to Ellen, she shows the message loud and clear, hatred for people because they are gay is absolutely not okay
For people who think Ellen did not cried enough for Larry as she cried so hard last time for her poor dog
The last time she cried so hard for her dog, all she got are nasty comments talking about gaining compassion, unreal and so on
this time she hold her tears back so hard and people just say she cried for the dog more than she cried Larry
What do you want?
Cry is wrong and no cry is wrong too?
For people who think Ellen is hypocritical and she should not show her feeling,
please remenber Ellen is a human being too, she has feeling and that's nothing wrong to show her sadness towards that innocent child, everyone with compassion would bad or cry for such a sweet boy killed, does it make any different when the person is Ellen? I love Ellen even more for the humanity and love she has, I am sure a lot of people share the same feeling with me.
