Colombine was 1 of 3 events that I can remember the day it happened and where I was when I found out. It was big enough news that our history teacher had found out about it before our class and told our class about it and we probably talked about it a good 5-10 minutes before he started teaching.
Honestly, it was painfully obvious when it did happen that all sorts of people and groups would find anything in it that they could to spin their own agenda. They played Doom? Well then video games caused them to be violent, let's ban violent video games! They listened to Marilyn Manson? Ban his music and any "hate-filled" music! That aftermath was as disgusting and devoid of respect for the victims as what the boys themselves did...it was just horrible. There have been sick and evil fucking people throughout time - why all of a sudden now do we make the assumption that something is making them sick and evil and if we can remove it from society, the world will be nothing but happy people? Give me a fucking break.
