I find it hilarious that the like of Marilyn Manson were mentioned as influencing factors
yet nobody mentioned the video for pearl Jam's Jeremy, which was all over MTV when the Columbine fellas were 11. It won the MTV award for best video when these two were about 12. It was a blueprint for going into school and teaching everyone a lesson. But no, make-up wearing nancypants Manson got all the credit.

I like how the film "Elephant" had a gay element between the two shooters
That's a kick in the balls to the Columbine pricks.

To be fair
MM does have a song about going into school with a gun and teaching everyone a lesson... I do think blaming him is ridiculous though.

Me too
And Jeremy had a handy step-by-step video

Bloody love it
I think I resent the fact that it's now called 'doing a Columbine' and not 'doing a Jeremy'.

Yeah, Columbine was the biggy
Mass-media portrayed, plus it hit all the current fears of evil music and computer games training kids to be killers.

pah
there'd have been a lot more widespread carnage if they had been taught by something like GTA. There was no car-jacking going on. Where was the helicopter gunship rampage?

yeah
useless. he should have holed up till the cops showed up and then got into the SWAT truck to get more body armour. A quick dash for the coast, into a speedboat and caned it to his nearest safe house.
