A detailed Summary of colobine hight school

There has been a lot of events that have happened over the years that have changed the that people veiw things. Like when Terry Fox decided that he wanted to run across Canada, even though he could only do it on one leg. Some people probably thought he couldn't even run ten miles with an artificial leg. So that was an event that changed the way people thought about something. The Colombine High School shooting, in Littleton Colorado, is one of those things.

On April 20th, 1999, two students who attended Colombine High, Dylan Klebold, and Eric Harris opened fire in the school, and shot and killed twleve students and one teacher, leavind 28 students injured (ten of them in critical condition), before killing themselves. Eric and Dylan both were in a clique called the "Trenchcoat mafia". The Trenchcoat mafia was a group of outcasts who would wear long black coats everyday, always bragged about owning guns, and disliked people of a certain colour or race.

The shooting started at eleven thirty in the morning, during that time the students and the teachers hid in classrooms, closets, or underneath desks, until police could take them out of the building. The bodies of

The weird thing about the shooting was that the reason that Dylan and Eric started to open fire in Colombine was because they didn't like being judged by other people, by what they wore, and who they hung out with and stuff like that, but isn't that kind of a double standard since they judged people by their colour?

The person that created the web page wrote something that said "Stop the hate, stop judging people by what they dress like, who they hang out with, and what they do in their spare time. If you strike a match too many times, it'll set your hand on fire." After reading that I left the page. How can there be people that can possibly think that just because Eric and Dylan were teased a lot, that's any kind of reason to kill innocent people. The one thing that got me really upset was the fact that the website was called "Stop the hate", and the site was praising two people that killed thirteen people out of hate.

A lot of people are blaming things on the movies that Dylan and Eric watched, the video games they played, or the music they listen to. I don't think it's fair to blame what they did on all of that because I bet that almost every kid has either seen the same movies, played the same games, or listened to the same music as they did, but none of them are going to school and opening fire on there classmates. And why are people blamming things on how Eric and Dylan's parents raised them? I don't think that their parents had anything to do with what Dylan and Eric did, they had a mind of their own, if they were influenced by anyone, it was probably their frie
