Columbine Anniversary

[juvenilepunk]

R.I.P. to all of those who lost their lives on this fateful day.

The Columbine High School massacre occurred on Tuesday, April 20, 1999, at Columbine High School in Columbine, an unincorporated area of Jefferson County, Colorado, United States, near Denver and Littleton. Two senior students, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, embarked on a massacre, killing 12 students and one teacher. They also injured 21 other students directly, and three people were injured while attempting to escape. The pair then committed suicide. It is the fourth-deadliest school massacre in United States history, after the 1927 Bath School disaster, 1966 University of Texas massacre and the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, and the deadliest for an American high school.

The massacre provoked debate regarding gun control laws, the availability of firearms in the United States, and gun violence involving youths. Much discussion also centered on the nature of high school clique, subcultures and bullying, as well as the role of violent movies and video games in American society. The shooting also resulted in an increased emphasis on school security, and a moral panic aimed at goth culture, social outcasts, the gun culture, the use of pharmaceutical anti-depressants by teenagers, violent films and music, teenage internet use,[1] and violent video games.[2][3]

Or you can show some respect for those who lost their lives. Or you can just continue to be a dick.

Did you ever stop to think that maybe some of the kids that lost their lives are the ones that pushed them to do it? Their is no actual answer to why they did it, but the main idea was that they were bullied. Now, to kill those not responsible is a bit too much, but hell, go all in or don't go in at all.

Regardless of what happened I still consider it a tragic event in which I give my condolences to those who were lost and their families, including the gunmen.

 

[Poker's Elite]

I have no sympathy for the gunmen's family.

 

[TJ]

I have no sympathy for the gunmen's family.

Tis a bit harsh to accuse the family of what the perpetrators did, no?

 

[Poker's Elite]

Nope, I may have an ounce of sympathy but that's it.

 

[TJ]

Nope, I may have an ounce of sympathy but that's it.

Oh, so if your mother killed someone while drunk (driving), then you should be put at blame also?

 

[Poker's Elite]

Tell me how that has anything to do with nuts killing people at a school.

 

[TJ]

Tell me how that has anything to do with nuts killing people at a school.

Well as they are not exactly the same, they both involve someone doing something stupid, knowing what they are doing and taking the risk with possible repercussions. I don't see anyway you could come close to blaming his family for this, unless they contributed to them gaining the weapons.

 

[Poker's Elite]

I never blamed the family I said I felt no sympathy.

its not that i have no sympathy but why should i care? do we mourn every unnamed suicide bombing? no. its because your in a little bubble and only care when its american kids like you. its quite apparent how good the media is at brainwashing you though. i do hope everyone who died that day rests in piece though. i just find it sad how only some school kids are mourned when people are dying from starvation right now.

 

[Poker's Elite]

People dying from starvation like in africa, if they don't have food why reproduce.
