.......another shooting has occurred in a high school, this time at Columbine High school, southwest of Denver, Colorado. Initial reports say about 15 people hurt. The assailants are said to be members of the "Trenchcoat Mafia", as they wore trenchcoats at the time. Rumours had it that they were armed with shotguns and grenades, and that some students are being held hostage, only about 90% of the students in the High school have been accounted for.
More news as it develops........

My coverage says that two of them are dead, a third who was apparently a friend of theirs was brought out in handcuffs, and three more guys dressed in camoflauge and/or black trenchcoats, also associates of the perps, were apprehended while "descending" upon the school.
So four of them may still be alive (for now).
And yeah, Tom, they will try to blame this on the guns, rather than the people. You watch.

It's the guns, the people, AND the society.

In proper order, it's: 1: The people. They chose to do this, and we are all ultimately responsible for our own actions. This is THEIR fault. They planned this, they carried it out, they make the bombs, they pulled the triggers. Nobody MADE them do it.
2: The society. What created these beings? What was their home life really like? They are currently generally believed to have been the "outcasts" of the school. Is this what being shunned can do to people? (my answer: no. I was a social misfit too, and worse, and I've yet to shoot anybody)
3: The guns. They're inanimate objects. They have no say in how they're used. By themselves, they are harmless. Only dangerous in some PERSON'S hands.

The little points of light... We watched them spark, delighted. We watched them burn, with joy. Planted them where the harmful wind Couldn't snuff them out. Sheltered them, in the dry, cool places. Preserved them, when we could. We never thought we'd see them dim. We never thought they could.
The little points of light... We nourished them with sunlight, We nourished them with love, We placed them out, to see them grow, Against our better judgment. No shelter there, out in the world. The angry wind will blow. We always thought they'd be there, We never let them know...
The little points of light... We watched them snuff out, One by one. We watched them die before us. Death there shelter now provides, The world, it cries in chorus. Helpless, watching lives plucked out. And this is what they mourn, No longer do they flicker, No longer do they burn.
