This is Very interesting article. Its also scary to see the states that had a color saying a deadly event happen.

As of right know. No school in the United States is safe after the tragedy and i am also talking about Colleges not just schools but Colleges are not safe.

Simple! Kids are a product 9of:

1. Home and two (2) parents
2. Church, Sunday School,
3. School, teachers, administrators

Take away the first two and look what you have.

lack of brains i'll agree with, but i get angry, and i dont shoot people, i get violent, but i dont think about killing people, im not a beleiver, but i know whats right or wrong, i go to platte, and it wasnt vedio games, it wasnt even a kid, vedio games dont do anything, its bad homes, and no one taking the time to listen that causes this sort of thing. not music, movies vedio games, someone with a laps of judgement because of somrthing happening when they where raised. im sick of oyu people not listening to the youth and blaming things you can understand instead of the truth. kids are influenced by the people they look up to, and people dont really look up to CJ from grand theift auto, or man hunt or doom, they look up to their parents or other adults. Children are a product of their society. Bailey has a danm good one, and one of platte canyons students wouldnt attack the school.

I've played violent video games most of my life up to my mid 20s -- the only thing different now is the lack of time to play. It never gave me the idea to go out and actually *do* something like that. There's something missing in the ticker to begin with in order for someone to go so far as to hurt someone or themselves, for that matter. It goes way beyond the externals.

Children today have grown up on shootings,drugs and violence all on there tv. also during video games . now that stuff dont make you go out and shoot up a school it just gives you strategy and some ideas that you could be in the army or be some kinda killer, im a teen so im speaking for me,ever since i have been 8 i have wanted to be a a soldier guard top secret facilities like area 51,go to iraq to kill cause you cant go to prison if your in the army< its legal< anyway i daydreamed about stuff like that all the time from grade school up to highschool in highschool every one else seem to hit a grow spert but me i was the little video game wanna be soldier but to small to scare anyone of course i started getting picked on which started making me daydream about going though the school with guns killing the aholes who made me feel less than man,instead of going through a facility killing demons or zombies or forieners during war, i would always think of killing the highschools jocks and preps cause they had the girls the muscle the easy life . some might have it hard but that dont stop them from picking on me.that built up untill i quit because i retty much was going to i had already bought guns and all that but i just decided that i had serios anger problems from bullying and a low self esteem issue but i realized my problem and that was 2 years ago the culture is just getting more violent and a lot worse hope i gave a little insight on why for some mostly why i would.

First off, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold [the Columbine Killers] didn't have bad home enviornments and they were well off as far as money goes. The reason they killed people is because they were bullied and couldnt take it anymore. It wasn't the video games or Natural Born Killers, although Eric called Columbine NBK.

Go www.acolumbinesite.com and go to Eric's page. Both the printed version, which you can make out, is there and also the handwritten one.
