Kivu,

Are you implying that the kids at Columbine high are racist?

I have never seen color in anyone, so please take the following statement open minded.

I'm tired of hearing how the gunmen targeted minorities and jocks. Of the dead, only two were of color. Look at the pictures and write ups of the dead. Only a couple jocks, four girls, a couple computer "geeks" (I'm one, and I don't mind the title), and other normal kids.

These killers were obviously twisted and I have no doubt they said things about killing blacks and jocks. However, their actions don't back that statement up. The black boy that was killed was called "N" before he was shot. A girl in the same room was killed when she said she believed in God. Does that mean Christians should be afraid to send their children to that school?

If these kids truly intended to focus on killing jocks and minorities, why did they end up in a library? Not the most popular jock hang out, especially with the gym just down the hall. My high school experience was that the library was usually 50% girls who were more into their studies than anything else. Of course, that was sometime ago, so things may be different now.

These demented children, the "Trench Coat Mafia,"do not represent the community of Littleton!

I have not heard any other statements saying blacks were harassed by students on a daily basis.
