Wonderful Flash.

I must say, that was an amazing flash movie. You've really depicted the events of Columbine really well. Very well done.

I was also rather young when this event happened, so I didn't hear everything about it. The whole "Do you believe in God?" conversation was new to me, and honestly, I reacted the exact same way as the blonde shooter did to her staement.

That doesn't mean I'm going to go and shoot up my school, rather that her argument was flawed.

But I digress. An excellent Flash movie, great sound, visually pleasing, solid animations and a great motivation behind it all. Superb work.

This is why you need clear cut morality.

You need to get rid of Nazism, or neo-nazism as they inspire murdering. You should also have a law that teachers must explain creation with evolution so it's at least uncertain whether there's any point to life. That sort of Atheistic/Materialism philosophy has killed 130 million people in the last century and society still hasn't learnt it's lesson.

A philosophy that states that grass and humankind are nothing but complex chemicals assembled by random chance, evolutionary companions (and hence ten million Ukraine’s being fair game for Stalin) is dangerous. It turned the school system into a time bomb, a fuse and spark for those disturbing individuals. Sorry, but I had to rant. Atheist fundamentalists are even worse than certain Islamic ones. Especially Hitler.

to all the parents out there

to all the parents out there.... remember to tell your kids at least once in their life.... hey... son... i love ya. don't go shoot up your school. that would fall into the BAD THINGS category of things that we could do. maybe if you brought everyone in school diet soda or something else with artificial sweetener you can kill them just the same.... with cancer or something down the road... far less messy and you'll live through it.

all kidding aside... this was a tragedy. parents do need to reel in their kids... on both sides of the equation.

Made me feel like I was there

This flash explained to me more about Columbine, an dmade me feel like I was hiding under one of those desks, hoping to not get shot. You did a great job on this. Only a handful of flashes can make you feel like your in the scene, and this flash is one of them

There is a reason i put a point in humor...

Alot of you are probably gonna think im psycho for even thinking in this direction, but I can sympathises with the guys who were responsible for Colombine as much as with the victims. The 2 guys responsible just never felt that things were fair to them. And in a sense, it wasn't...

I know, i was only a week from being 9 at the time, but even then i felt this way. They just never saw a way out. Noone bothered to help them. They were the few that slip through the cracks and they just happened to be very weak. They couldn't deal with the pressure to conform and they lacked the ability to cope.

Many of you are thinking I am just speculating, and you would be mostly right. I am one of those that slip through the cracks, but I find ways to cope. Im not "put to waste" as it were. They never did stand a chance, they felt useless and they belived it was everyone elses fault. Noone gave them a chance to express them selves, so in a way, it was.

I m in no way saying that the victims deserved it, but the blame cant ever be put souly on those felt left behind. Unused, uncared for, and alone... I aprechiated the humor that finnaly, someone put something together that expressed that very point, even if it was unitentional.

I realize I may seem, phsyco to alot of you now, but see it from the point of view of a total out cast. Feeling "If only I had been givin a chance..." They showed they werent unempathetic by the way that they that they let their friends go. They had compasion, they just viewed the most of the world as an enemy. One that they belived was out to get them, one that they could not control or predict. It probably scared them... This is just speculation through the eyes of someone who has lived like this, take no heed if you wish. Just know that they werent horrible people, just lost...
