The way Tom talks about his Daniel and you see his eyes shining when he goes all reminiscing the memories he has of him... it literally breaks my heart so much to think how Daniel and the other 12 people lost their lives, kids and a coach got robbed of their lives and their dreams and broke their families (and the injured or not injured too) This man has spend 20 years without his kid... a sweet and loving kid who had so potential and so much to give to the world. It just so hard to think about how can someone idolize Eric and Dylan, regardless of their struggles it would NEVER justify the pain they cause to so many people and their own families I'm pretty sure Daniel is very proud of his dad for all the advocacy for Gun Violence and his hard work. I hope he rests in eternal peace and I sincerely hope Tom keeps walking in Daniel's shoes, he's such a wise and strong man. Much love to him and his beautiful family xx
What’s heartbreaking about this - is how wonderful Daniel was in overcoming his fears and shyness and pursuing what frightened him. That’s an incredible quality to find in a 15 year old. But what is most heartbreaking is that Dylan Klebold shows the opposite path for a shy kid - becoming an angry depressive. If only Dylan had crossed paths with Daniel - instead of Eric Harris. He might have found the courage to overcome his demons.
yes, this is true ofcourse. I’m not saying you specifically are doing this-it doesn’t seem like it-but I think many people view Dylan as just a depressed kid who got swept up with Harris. However, he knew exactly what he was doing. He killed people in cold blood. He doesn’t deserve to be remembered as someone who simply followed Harris out of depression. That narrative diminishes the reality of his actions, and he doesn’t deserve that kind of excuse.
Daniel Mauser was the one that really stuck out to me and hit me hard (don't get me wrong, they are all tragic losses!) but the way that Tom talks about his son and the actions he is taking in his legacy are so admirable and Daniel would have grown into such an amazing man with Tom as a father. I hope he knows this. RIP Daniel x
I agree with you 100%, and I am pretty much against gun control. But there is something about the way in which Tom presents the argument for it that I can't come up with an argument against what he says. He is not a radical trying to stop me from my own self defense. He doesn't approach it in this hard line way that other do. I find myself thinking he is absolutely right on what he has said needs to change. I respect and admire him so much.
Notice how most mass shootings are in gun free zones the only way to stick up for yourself against evil people and their evil plans/desires is to learn how to use a gun safely and effectively.
Hopefully Tom can take some solace in the fact that Daniel reportedly attempted to "attack" for lack of a better word, Eric Harris before he was shot point blank. He fought until his dying breath and judging by Tom's description, it doesn't surprise me.
What a lovely man. I am so heartbroken for him. You can only imagine how wonderful Daniel would have been if he had survived, he sounds like he was a gem.
As a person who has sought treatment for mental illness in the past, I am so, so grateful for Mr. Mauser's statement that society should stop blaming mental illness for mass shootings. It's such an important thing to hear from someone who has survived that kind of thing and I really appreciate the time and thought he expended to say that.
Daniels death really touched me as it was the first time I seen picture of him was laying in his casket in pictures after the massacre. So young, such a tragic event. Love from New Zealand to Daniels family
Bless your heart. I’m so sorry about your loss of Daniel. You have honored him and what a wonderful young man he was. Thank you for working to keep other children safe. I’m touched about you wearing his shoes. Your honesty is breathtaking. My prayers are with you and your family.
RIP to your sweet son. I can't imagine they pain you and your family went through. Thank you for sharing you story and honoring Daniel's memorie. Prayers for you and your family.
Daniel was very lucky to have such a wise, thoughtful, considerate and contemplative man for a father. Losing a child of any age is a horrible burden to bear, but especially a very young one with their whole life ahead of them. RIP to Daniel and the rest of the Columbine victims.
Dear Mr. Mauser: in the off-chance that you read the comments to this video, I wish to share a few words with you: First of all, I am truly sorry for your loss, the loss of 12 other families on that day, as well as the loss of countless other people who have lived through this tragedy. While this video and many others I have watched in rapid succession, did not go in depth into Daniel's personal life, out of respect for his right to privacy, from what little I could gather he was a remarkable young man, who was not afraid to push his limits and challenge himself. He sounds like he was an incredibly resourceful, clever and courageous young man. Secondly, I wish to express my deepest respect, admiration and appreciation of your worthy cause for stricter gun control. I am awed and inspired by your ability to go on in the face of such a loss, and actually use it as a point for making a point for making the world a slightly better place. Your words have so much power, warmth, kindness, pain and compassion, and your actions speak louder still than your words. You are a remarkable man Mr. Mauser, a leader and a hero, and I salute you.
Thank you for your insight, Mr. Mauser. Daniel has been gone for longer than he was on this earth. But clearly, his light still shines so brightly in you. No doubt, he was as proud to have you for a father, as you are to call him your son.
So eloquent and articulate. A truly wise man that, despite of his own pain, found the strength to help others and honor his son's life. He can even realize that others may be in even more pain than he is. That's humility. God bless Tom and his family, and rip Daniel.
by looking at his pictures i can see that he was an amazing and intelligent young man. he and the other 12 students did not deserve this. i cannot begin to describe the sadness i feel by imagining what this family had and will have to go trough for the rest of their lives. may they rest in peace.
Couldn’t agree more, Tom, although there were indeed others before it, there is just something about the Columbine Massacre that sticks. It has never left my head, and I honestly don’t think that it ever will.
@@bobafett3352 It’s rumoured that Daniel tried to throw a chair at Eric before being shot. Survivors from the library described a blonde haired boy moving some chairs from under the table. The allegation that he tried to throw the chair has never been proven to my knowledge - as incredibly brave as that would have been. It’s theorised that instead he was arranging the chairs to conceal himself better under the table. He was shot in his hand first so that could explain to why.
@@willwork4pizza it’s true , in the 911 call you can hear eric having a scuffle with someone. And then Eric goes “get your hands off of me!” And then you hear Eric say “Nice glasses” and then a gun shot.. which was when Daniel got shot in the face. And then you can hear Dylan say “did he just try to jump on you?” And Eric went “Yea”
Wow, such an amazing father. You’re so inspirational, Tom. I know Daniel is so damn proud and although his shyness partying and celebrating you Tom loud up there in heaven. Thanks for speaking up, thanks for showing the world your son and thanks for never giving up. Dan would be as a amazing as you when he would have had the chance to grow up. Thinking of you and the tragedy so often, so I am finally leaving this comment. People out there, please be kind to each other... love from Germany!
I”m so so sorry. My heart goes out to you and your family. Just hearing you speak so eloquently about the loss of your son just brings me to tears. Know your son see everything you have done in his name and is so proud of you!
As a parent this is my biggest fear. I always say I don’t know how I could live after something like this happening. How inspiring and courageous. What a man?!?! Daniel was very lucky to have him as a father.
Amazing to hear this man. His son looked like a beautiful young boy and to have lost him is impossible for me to imagine. This man has grown far beyond anger and he makes me cry and inspires my own person. Thank you for being!
What a great man! He's said everything that needs to be said here. The Daniel's Shoes part just broke my heart! So many in this authoritarian country spend more time dominating than teaching, i.e., children learn love and respect when they are treated with love and respect, not when they are bullied and pressured into conformity, as too many are today. We need more peace in our neighborhoods, homes and public spaces.
indeed. high school kids from the 90s have a unique perspective on columbine. They are able to experience and reflect on the event as a teenager and an adult.
i have so much respect and love for this man. his angel son, his only son, was killed in the worst way possible. when he said this wasn’t just a shooting, it was a murder, i mean just the reality of it. it’s terrifying to me as a high schooler that this could happen at my school. at your school. at anyone’s school. it’s so scary
My thoughts and prayers to Daniel's father and everyone else affected by this horrible evil tragedy. I never have known Daniel but seemed like a sweet young man. I am a parent if two boys they luckily through the grace of God made it though safely. One is going to college now and my other will graduate in a couple of weeks. There have been threats at their school which was taken very seriously but luckily never carried out. I pray that schools will be safer for all the kids.
I can barely contain my tears. "There's no other feeling like losing your child."😭😭😭 I wish that Columbine school, those coward cops, and Eric's psychiatrist would've taken action. I'm so sorry for all the victims including the Klebolds that have to live with this terrible tragedy. Edit: What motivating words this strong man stated.😭😭 Your relative does not want to see you wither away your life in grief.
If the warrant to search Eric's room, website, etc had been acted on by the police instead of just filed away and forgotten, Columbine wouldn't have happened at all.
All of those that lived through this tragedy, have my utmost respect for how they have moved on and that they knew to get help. I pray that they can have more peaceful life. ❤💔😭

Wow he went to bed not knowing where or if his son was alive. I couldn’t imagine that feeling. Rip to Daniel. Tom, Daniel is looking over you and proud for everything you’ve done.
So heartbreaking but so heartwarming to hear how he talks about him. Still so much hurt and I have to commend him for the fight of hun control. We are with you Tom!
From all the videos I've seen from victims and family members, Tom has been the most matter-of-fact when it comes to the event. Not only honoring his son, but actively and vigorously taking the fight to lawmakers. I have nothing buy respect for Tom, his family and community. Be safe everyone.
Columbine and 9/11 shaped up our world today into the new millennium. Tom, how the HELL did you go to bed that night not knowing the whereabouts of your son? I can not imagine at all being a parent that day and from Then on... I was HEAVILY bullied in middle and high school and I fear sending my son to school BECUASE of it. Columbine really had an effect on me. I was 13 years old at the time. God bless Daniel
Alot of parents went to bed that night not knowing. It was different then, mobile phones weren't carried by everyone, the internet wasn't how it is with social media today. There was no way knowing if their kids were maybe staying with friends for the night etc. I was 15 then, much simpler time.
Very strong and brave man......having to live thru this terror and then all the years without Daniel who surely was going to be a big success in life.............such courage, and so sorry for you and all the other parents and obviously the victims of this senseless tragedy. Daniel is so proud of you and I hope you and him can meet again one day............
Thank u Daniel's farther for speaking soooo loud in order to save life and speaking to preserve the memory of Daniel and his fellow class mates.😔🙏🏼🙏🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿☝🌹🌈🌠I believe the sighting of that young was Daniel saying its ok.

Alot of parents went to bed that night not knowing. It was different then, mobile phones weren't carried by everyone, the internet wasn't how it is with social media today. There was no way knowing if their kids were maybe staying with friends for the night etc. I was 15 then, much simpler time.
Very strong and brave man......having to live thru this terror and then all the years without Daniel who surely was going to be a big success in life.............such courage, and so sorry for you and all the other parents and obviously the victims of this senseless tragedy. Daniel is so proud of you and I hope you and him can meet again one day............
This is a great man.
I admire this man so much!
Thank u Daniel's farther for speaking soooo loud in order to save life and speaking to preserve the memory of Daniel and his fellow class mates.😔🙏🏼🙏🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿☝🌹🌈🌠I believe the sighting of that young was Daniel saying its ok.
His story is so inspiring but heartbreaking at the same time
