Reviews for "Target Practice"

[SomeoneHatesME]

Regardless of what I give, this deserves one thing

And that one thing is recognition.

I'm not going to post some 21-paragraph-long monologue about how important it is to see how someone really is... but all of us must understand one thing. There is hatred in this world, and to the weaker people, this hatred is a cruel and terrible thing that cannot be beared.

I don't contend to know what was going on in this young man's life, but I do know what was going on in his death. What reason did he have to kill the others, I don't know. But I do know this: As much as it wasn't justified, it could have been stopped altogether. It didn't have to happen if people had recognized all these things beforehand. It wasn't their fault, per se, but it was their misgiving to not take care and nurture what could have become something good.
In the end, we are all great. Whether great is good or evil, that is our decision. Our decision, however, will be based off of how other people have treated us... or how they have not treated us.

Really?!

I never heard about this guy, must have happened in America (I'm Australian.) Why do people do that sort of thing, is it pure insanity?! do they simply hate there school?! or do they just want to commit suicide and they thought they might take some people with them.

Maybe this guy simply played so many violent video games or watched so many violent movies that he got the idea it would be alright. Looking at his responce to a review by YoinK_VineS he said "I'm a big fan of overkill." And many other review responses talking about him liking violence.

This actually points out that Newgrounds is extremely violent and of poor taste... But then again I guess that is the reason i still come
here.

Frightening Really

Well personally I just read the NewsWeek and Time articles on this man who submitted this piece of flash animation. After watching it I must admit it is sad to think measures and actions this person took just for the cause of hate. 4StringPoet I must say that just because you don't agree with what he did doesn't mean you should condem him completely. For those who knew him they said he was was "The nicest person you'd ever hope to meet", "He'd always try to help others with their problems.". Depression takes it toll on people and Prozac mixed with teenage hormones and the enzymes that cause depression have been said to cause suicidal and homosidal thoughts. Not to say what he did was even close to good, just defending the defenseless, it's my job. "Remember the dead for who they were in life not for what they ended up as before they died". A wise man once said, this adolecent decided death and suicide were his only options for a full death. This is what drive the killers of today. Remember that he felt pain, and that he died doing what he though was right. Again I say I do not condone his actions, I just defend him because he is dead and cannot defend himself.
