columbine

There were armed security personnel on site[1] at the Columbine shooting that actually had a shootout with the duo.

I doubt more school-approved violence would have helped prevent sociopaths who do terrible things like the Columbine shootings...

Heck, the Columbine incident is very rare in having two shooters.

The Columbine Trenchcoat Mafia tribute at the end was just adorable.

A similar treatment was comedy-documentary Bowling for Columbine in 2002.

For example, the Columbine school shooting (15 years ago) involved several (badly wired) bombs that were intended to go off in crowds of survivors and rescue workers.

I just downloaded the Columbine Pass map for Colorado (Vallecitos Basin and some of the Chicago Basin, NW of Durango), and trails _are_ on the map...

It made me think of Michael Moore's conclusion in Bowling for Columbine that America's love of guns is based on fear that they will be attacked, mugged, home invaded etc.

Have you ever seen a kid around junior high age get treated so cruelly you think it's a miracle he doesn't go Columbine on his tormentors and those who allowed it?

(Statistically I'd have a better shot at winning a small prize in a lottery, but still...) So: The Columbine school shooting?

In some cases, you were met with outright suspicion or hostility--being a Doom or Quake modder following Columbine was not something that made friends with fellow students or administrators (or parents!) for a while.

One thing that people may not have heard about the Columbine shooters (because of the usual press corruption) is that they were sexually abused by the police, and were trying to get back at them.

It reminds me of that passage in "Bowling for Columbine" about how the US is a society filled with fear.

Now, my first impression to this and to other AR (and VR) demos is, "Isn't this literally a new Columbine waiting to happen?".

They are on a Columbine or Jack Thomson level of "objectivity".

I have sometimes said that I homeschooled to prevent "the next Columbine".

Sports-related violence is semi-frequent and deplorable, but blaming sports for causing drunken boorish behavior is just like blaming Doom for Columbine.

Columbine shooting was an act of criminals, so you can expect anything is fair game.

As a result, we see things like this, like Columbine, like many other things--and feed the school to prison pipeline.
