Columbine High School Shooting Massacre, Way back in April 20, 1999 Options

[*Blow_Don't_SUCK*]

Sorry if there is a topic like this!

I recently watched a documentary called Bowling for Columbine. It's basically about a high school massacre in Columbine High School and the director's thoughts on gun violence.


Anyways I really want to talk about the high school shooting a bit more. It's the second deadliest attack on a school and the deadliest school shooting. The two shooters, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed 12 students and teachers and injured 24 others. The documentary I mentioned earlier has detailed footage of what had happened through the security cameras (boy were they brutal). These two students were "out-casts" of the school and were full of hatred towards their fellow students.

The Columbine High School massacre occurred on Tuesday, April 20, 1999 at Columbine High School in unincorporated Jefferson County, Colorado, near Denver and Littleton, Colorado, in the United States. Two teenage students, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, carried out a shooting rampage, killing twelve fellow students and a teacher, as well as wounding twenty-four others, before committing suicide. It is considered to be the deadliest school shooting, and the second deadliest attack on a school in US History.

The massacre provoked refined debate regarding gun control laws and the availability of firearms in the United States. Much discussion also centered on the nature of high school cliques and bullying, as well as the role of violent movies and video games in American society. Several of the victims who were believed to have been killed due to their religious beliefs became a source of inspiration to others, notably Christians, and led some to lament the decline of religion in public education and society in general. The shooting also resulted in an increased emphasis on school security, and a moral panic aimed at goth culture, heavy metal music, social pariahs, the use of pharmaceutical anti-depressants by teenagers, violent films and violent video games

here is a detailed article of it:

I know this happened years ago, but I want to see if there were people who actually went to Columbine, heard of it in the news by the time it came out, and a few of your reactions (and theories as to why this happened).

i agree. she did what she did and we shouldn't be arguing about a decision that's already been made.

I think it's important. Very.

Have you not even been reading the thread? Did you not notice the rather thorough artical post by Mipadi concerning the story behind her "decision?" Did you entirely miss that the incident never even happened? It's a made up story. Did you really miss it, or did you just ignore it?

she didn't commit suicide she died for god. there's nothing wrong with that. this was a really sad story. & i wouldn't lie about someone like god just to save my life. that's crack head behavior. TELL THE TRUTH about god. jeez people.

Refer to the above.
Also, I'm going to go strap some bombs to my chest now.

Life to Allah! Allah lives!
