Terrifying
Overall, this is just terrifying, and... wow. I'm at a loss for words.
Also, the guy in the video killed 9 people and himself, just like in the shooting.
Fucking creepy.

Um...
Entering Newgrounds I did the usual of scanning the front page and clicked on this because of the "media attention" because, I sure hadn't heard about it. Then I realized it was about the Minnesota shooting my boyfriend mentioned to me last week, but thats the most I knew about. Newgrounds has a ton of these type of flash, and when I first saw it,( without realizing it was speaking of the school) I was just like ugh, not another flash like this, but when I found it that this author did do what he did, I just felt sick and pretty disturbed. One thing is to see it as a flash, and another to realize it was carried out. This really isn't a review, but just random comments...how about reviews, blams, ratings just stop...people bickering about ratings, blams, or reviews isn't really doing anything...(And I just put 1's for the ratings because Newsgrounds requires ratings for me to post)
freaky
seeing this and seeing what the creator did was a bit disturbing to me but i now realize that all he really wanted was attention. he wanted people to see his problems and what he was thinking and have pity for him. and this animation was an outlet for his feelings of himself and the world. what he did was terrible but im sure what provoked him to do it would drive many people crazy.
im just saying that people need to pay more attention to what other people are thinking and try to help them instead of standing aside and watching people do horrible things when you know you could of stopped him and just....talked
Very Sad
This guy had problems that needed to be worked out. Even though he needed help he shouldnt have turned to NG for help. There are 2 many violent stuff on this site already. I do feel sorry 4 the dip shits that just sat around lookind at this misirible kid while he oviously need help. But on that note the kid did kill a bunch of innocent people and then killed himselp. He truly does deserve 2 burn in hell... but who knows what God did with him, mabye he was not mentally stable and could not control his motions. What ever the reason REMEMBER TO BE A FRIEND TO THOSE IN NEED... BECAUSE 1 FRIEND TO ANOTHER MEENS 1 MOR LIFE SAVED.
Well, it's not my cup of Tea.
It's just a sensless violence short, like Madness, or Killer Bunny, or a bazillion others.. Although it lacked the Style in animation of some of those series, the fact that the lead character kills himself at the end humanizes the killer.. which I think is quite unique, and the only reason anyone would pay attention. Aside for the creators body count of course.
I must say "Clown" was much better.
But for a first film I'd say this kicks is ass, if only for the twist at the breaking all conventions of the "mindless slaughter" genre.
A waste of talent.
