Lawrence King, a 15-year-old at E.O. Green Junior High School in Oxnard, California was shot in the head and back and lies in a hospital, declared brain-dead, with his body now kept alive by life support, so that his organs being preserved to donate to save another life. The tragedy is that King was likely targeted because of his gender non-conformity.
