Columbine: Ten Years Later

April 14th, 2009  |  1 Comment

An interesting look back on Columbine and what we’ve learned since the tragedy. Apparently, a lot of what has filtered out in the intervening years has been untrue.

The killings ignited a national debate over bullying, but the record now shows Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold hadn’t been bullied — in fact, they had bragged in diaries about picking on freshmen and “fags.”

[...] Harris and Klebold weren’t on antidepressant medication and didn’t target jocks, blacks or Christians, police now say, citing the killers’ journals and witness accounts. That story about a student being shot in the head after she said she believed in God? Never happened, the FBI says now.

[...] the bombs Harris built fizzled.  “He was so bad at wiring those bombs, apparently they weren’t even close to working,”
