This shit came to my school yesterday. Such fucking bullshit, I've never been more insulted in my life. They are making a bastardization of her life, for use to make money off presentations. 15 people died in that incident. The shooters died as well. And this whole situation wouldn't have happened if they weren't picked on, they were the victims in this situation. Those who died were not deserving, but they were killed out of blind rage and power hunger brought on by social abuse. And they are making a movie out of her life. Jesus fucking christ, let it die. She wouldn't have made such an impact if she didn't die, or didn't write any of this shit about how she would become an impact.

[editline]04:29AM[/editline] Society abuses alot of things, and sometimes things bite back, and in previous events its proves hard, but society blames the bitter, not its self for kicking the cornered beast.

It was completely avoided because back then bullying wasn't taken seriously. If anything we should learn from Columbine that we shouldn't pick on kids because of the consequences that can come out. Columbine was in a sense a blessing, because without it bullying wouldn't be any sort of issue at all, so all of you kids who have had classes on bullying in the past 10 years can thank these people. It was pretty much overlooked entirely before that. [editline]09:38PM[/editline] Oh and I feel like adding that she received a kindness award 2 years after her death. Must have been a slow year in kindness.
Bullying still overlooked massively.
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;19603483]Bullying still overlooked massively.[/QUOTE] Aye. The issue with the public school system is that you have (for High School) 3000 students to 100 staff members, sometimes less. I go to an alternitive school and we have a 10:1 ratio, which makes it much easier for the teachers and other staff members to spot issues with students and keep things like Columbine from happening.
Bullying is overlooked, but not as much as it was in the 90's.
Hehe, bullying still overlooked? My school doesn't tolerate it. 5 k students to like 112 staff. Even if someone falsely reports you for bullying, you still get suspended for 2 months. No appealing. No investigating.

But honestly they are doing what they do at your school to avoid what happened here, albeit overly harsh.
You're fucking gay.
[QUOTE=Playaz;19597707]About 20 days before the shooting, she had been writing differantly and started having "premonitions" and on the day of the shooting, she drew a picture, instead of writing.
