This is a new twist in the story of Larry King. His parents want to sue his school district, a shelter, and a gay rights organization for not telling him that being gay is not right. What the hell are they thinking? This is a classic case of parents not taking responsibility for their non-actions. The poor boy was living in a shelter for troubled children. He should have been living at home with his "parents". Only now, that the parents of Larry King see that they can make a profit off of him, do they want to be his parents.
The 18-page lawsuit filed by King's parents and brother names nearly two dozen defendants. It claims that everyone from King's teacher to his social worker failed to urge the effeminate teen to tone down flamboyant behavior. The suit also claims they failed to heed McInerney's alleged threat to kill King a day before the shooting.
In addition to his teacher and principal, the suit names McInerney and his parents; the nonprofit Casa Pacifica, a shelter for troubled children where King had been living; counselors; a county social worker, and the Ventura County Rainbow Alliance.
The school and shelter knew that King's behavior was "sexually assertive" and

threatening but failed to take action, the suit contends.
The shelter gave him "cross-dressing clothes and makeup and women's boots," and the Rainbow Alliance encouraged King to make sexual advances on McInerney, the suit claims.
Alliance Executive Director Jay Smith denied the allegation.
"No facilitator or mental health therapist would say anything even remotely like that," Smith said. "This whole thing is just frivolous."
Casa Pacifica did nothing to contribute to the boy's death, administrator Steve Elson said.
