This happened my senior year of high school, had no idea it would be normalized. This is why I tried to be kind to everyone. You never know what the smallest gesture of kindness might mean to someone.
Same. I will never forget going back to school after this happened and looking around the hallways at everyone. Every school had a “trench coat mafia” back in 1999. I was just glad school was almost over but I remember that eerie feeling in the hallways like what if one of these kids just flipped like this one day. It was the first of many. Such a sad day.
Yes it happened about a month before my graduation in 99. For that month our school was on lockdown, it was more like a prison. They treated every kid that was late for class like a suspected murderer and they would have to be escorted to class by administrators. All classrooms were locked, no restroom breaks without escorts..
Crazy that this happened your senior year, the second biggest high school shooting (Parkland) happened my senior year. Crazy and sad to think how two different generations and those around us are all still affected
That's a good point, and a great takeaway coming from something so heinous and nightmarish.
Reminds me of a clip talking about when you greet someone and ask 'hey, how are you?', and they say 'good', you never quite know what that person may actually be going through.
Sounds corny and cliche, but people often hide their feelings, esp when it comes to mental health or life's struggles in general. Even between the closest of friends. Things that shouldn't be, but are embarrassing to wear on your sleeve. Eric harris feeling left out of fun things by the cool kids was eating him alive inside, based off what he wrote in his journal. Sometimes we all need a little reminder to be empathetic/compassionate. Sometimes things we feel we're all alone with, are things that everyone has felt at one time or another. Sometimes we all need a pep talk, other times the best thing possible is to just listen. You will never truly know when a simple gesture of kindness could determine life or death to someone, or even yourself. Guys in particular (based off s--cide rates, and a natural inclination to be less open or to seek help).
These guys seemed to have diagnosable disorder(s), and treatable issues that were never addressed, but who knows, a little kindness could have potentially changed their course.
I remember anti bullying policies at my school being taken much, much more seriously after this happened. Even nationwide tv ad psa's at the time iirc.
I was in 10th grade when this happened. All of our parents were shocked and scared. It was the first of its kind. For the next 2 years of my high school experience, many kids didn't go to school on 4/20. 2 years later was Sept 11th attacks, and after I graduated we lost friends in the Iraq War. My youth was wild times.
It must have been really traumatic for you, all that to deal with then 911. I’m English but we were all American that day.
We all were HS kids, we all know. But wow, you all had to keep going back day after day/after year…and deal with all the stress from this first/not the last shooting. And then just 2yrs later 9/11.!! Nothing can be said really, it all just had to be gone through eh. No magic words gonna fix it. The fact through it ALL is that this existence needs both sides, ALL sides of everything to EXIST, for it all to keep going! BLISS, needs LESS BLISSFUL to exist. Happy/Sad. Helpful/hurtful…. Pain, less pain, joy, bliss. Everything needs its opposite to exist, or it would not exist at all! Hot, Cold. Ahhh, just right! It ALL exists. WE, judge things good or bad. But the extremes that happen are reallvery horrendous eh! Ideas that could be talked on forever really. The WHOLE thing is so huge that it cannot be contained and resolved by a human mind! So what CAN be done is LET IT GO! It all is so huge and WE have the choice, the power to let it all go!…and to be as happy as we can be !! We all had the trauma of the recent Big did-ease thing to deal with! So many new people have learned now to question everything!! It seems for now it will continue, as the world of “all possibilities” continues to play out! Wow, are things actually “better” now? Previous generations back the children were doing drills in schools…they were doing “duck and cover”, laying on the floor in the halls in fetal positions, covering their faces to protect from (as they totally believed it) possible falling atomic bombs!!!! A wish for the best of happiness everyone and for less unhappiness. Eh.

I remembered watching the live news that day. I had just gave birth to my oldest and he was only 7 days old. My son is now 25 years old.
What a horrible thing to hear as a brand new mom, likely didn't help any anxieties you had. My brother is 10 days younger than the September 11 attacks (I was almost 4) and my parents worried what kind of world we would grow up in.

Dave Sanders lived several hours after being shot. He could have been saved. The police and first responders failed him, who saved maybe hundreds of lives that day.
Lots of people say it was their protocol at the time. I say f@ck protocol when people are dying.
@@jasonroberts6080 Yep, I mean I get that nobody wants to go into the line of fire of a stream of bullets coming from AK47s held by maniacs, but that is what you signed up for and is part of the job. I think Sanders and maybe those kids in the library could have been saved. Such a shame.
Yeah bc Aaron tried his best to keep him optimistic
@@jasonroberts6080 AMEN
The kids even called 911 and said he was going to die if they did not help him and they just left him there and it was too late
They were trained for combat, had bullet proof vests, swat protection and guns yet were too scared to help. It wasn't protocol, it was fear. They failed Dave
I've seen this video several times and it never gets easier. I couldn't imagine the fear in that library. The heroes was the students inside tring to save lives and the cowards on the outside.
I don't think I could have just stayed outside, if I was a cop, that took an oath to serve and protect, knowing students were dying. I could not have lived with myself, I would have just as well been taken out by them. At least I had a gun, the students had nothing to protect themselves. 😢😢😢
I was a senior in high school in '99. I went to Chatfield Senior High (Columbine's sister/rival school). After this happened, they ended up coming to our school to try and finish the year. We used to joke about guns in school but never in our wildest dreams did we ever think anyone would really do that.
Nice! What do you think about all the conspiracy theories like others shooters, the number of students killed, a drill etc? I'm class of 1999 from high school as well. I heard way too many conspiracy theories about Columbine over the years. It's laughable.

Welcome to adulthood
I was home on maternity leave. My youngest daughter was 13 days old. I watched the TV news coverage all day about this. I WAS IN SHOCK!
I was only 12 at the time when this happened, I saw it on TV and was scared at what I was watching.
Yeah, but the police officer didn’t get into the school to protect those kids so I blame the police officers or got blood on their hands. They could say some live so sitting in the car or out talking you know cops are just talk about crazy stuff that’s why I don’t like cops
I still think the police were all cowards that day and should have those kids in their minds forever. RIP to the murdered kids and stay strong to the survivors.
Not necessarily, you have to remember officers are bound by protocol and policy, they were very different in 1999 now the officers are trained and allowed to immediately engage and make entry upon arrival.
@@josephgirardi9522 Uvalde disagrees.
@@LinxZwoDreiVierUvalde is in Texas Columbine is in Littleton Colorado, that’s 2 different states 2 events 22 years apart, things were done differently in 1999 in comparison to 22 years later, protocols were different, you don’t have to like it but those are the facts.
@ You said "now they are trained to …“ and clearly not. Also, that’s the system they signed up to serve, and "just following orders“ has, historically, been a piss poor excuse.
@@LinxZwoDreiVier what are you trying to say? You want me to tell you that the cops in Uvalde were wrong?? Ugghhh obviously ! In 1999 they were not wrong even though their policy was obviously wrong but if you watch this video obviously cops were taking fire from out of the windows, I remember watching it live on TV. You sound like a cop hater dude, why don’t you put the blame where it belongs, which is with the people who did the evil, cops can’t save the entire world you know.

What about the teacher
My daughter was in junior high in Fort Collins,co that day. I picked her up and gave her a cell phone then she could alert me anytime!
I was only a year and a half old, so I grew up as school shootings became more and more common. Now I'm a teacher. My family fears that they'll hear my school's name on the news. I fear for my students and my colleagues. I love them all so much and want them to be safe.
I hope you’re keeping that thang with you & being safe, Ms.! 🥰
Same.
I just turned 10 when this happened and remember it like it was yesterday.
Everyone: Columbine was the worst police response ever
Uvalde: Oh yeah? Hold my piss
At the time of Columbine, the police responded properly. Uvalde police failed because they were trained for this situation.
@@KarilynM You mean "untrained"
Yup! School shootings were so rare that the police didn't know how to respond. They stayed outside because they were told to.
How is that so?
Columbine at least had the excuse of the police department legitimately not having a protocol for something this extreme couple that with conflicting reports from inside and you have a police force dealing with something that they’ve never experienced before especially at a school Uvalde had no excuse
Bullying needs to be taken seriously.
More so mental health. Nobody is entitled to friends.
The sad part is these days, the bullys are protected and their victims are punished.
FACTS!
@artdude2823 facts. And they can say it wasn't bullying, but I grew up in those times. Bullying was extremely common. As someone who was a victim of it relentlessly, I knew the dejection that it causes.
This sort of violence happens when people allow bullying to continue in schools. Let’s see what happens when teachers and administrators start taking action against bullying by means of expulsion. It’s very important to stop a potential problem before it gets out of hand. Massacres happen when the necessary action needed is ignored.
I was in high school in the late 90s. Bullying was a BIG, BIG thing back then.
Be kind. You never know how vulnerable someone is to seek revenge. I think of all the kids on the margins during my schooling. Not making an excuse but bullying can send certain people over the edge.
They were building their own hate & prejudice of people they did what they claimed others did or acted toward them!
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I graduated a year before this. This was truly horrific and shocking. Now, in 2024, it is part of our lives. Heartbreaking. We need so many changes.

Really?
Why on earth didnt police go to the library first??? They could hear the shootings??
Unacceptable
I was out of HS by couple of years when this had happened. I had the same style of trench coat they were known to wear/cliche name and once I found out, I threw mine away out of respect to the victims and their families.
Kip Kinkel from the 1998 Oregon shooting had a trench coat as well. What was up with these kids with trench coats then.
idk but the bad rep followed them, there was a skinny blonde kid in my high school that wore one every year of HS in the mid 2010s. he liked to always play devils advocate in class discussions, he had a staring problem and liked to taunt other kids with racist comments. we tried to ignore him but sometimes he got into arguments because of it.
That being said i just knew if there was an ever a student that was gonna do something crazy to the school it would be him, ironically it was the quietest kid in his friend group. He was talking weird on twitter and turned his avi into a pic with a gun. The guidance counselor had so many emails by the next morning about it and the kid was missing from school for a few weeks. No one not even Trench coat talked to the kid for the rest of the year. I don’t even remember if he showed up at graduation.
@@AntiMasonic93 Mine was given to me by a friend of mine after he got a warmer jacket or something iirc; it was around ‘95 or ‘96.
@@AntiMasonic93 It was popular during the 1990s mainly because of Science Fiction action movies (like The Matrix) and first shooter video games.
You have to understand video games’ graphics was rapidly improving last 1990s.
It’s worth noting both the shooters of the massacre was never a member of the Trench Coat Mafia (the clique in their school) but only idolized them, and are friends with the leader of the clique.
Living here in Colorado and working at the hospital waiting for the kids to come was heartbreaking.
Then to do it all over again with the theater shootings was mind blowing.
We have endured the club shootings and the King Soopers shootings. I doubt if there are many of us Coloradans that were not touched by one or the other tragedies.
I still have my “Remember Columbine” state plate. It guts me to know that the worst has happened here. Only next to Texas have we been more violent.
Yes, we still pilgrimage to the school and pay our respects at the memorial. It is a wound that will take a generation to heal.
God bless those that were in the school, but I know that it hit us responders just as hard.
Always such a perplexing and extremely disturbing case to learn about. I truly feel for everyone who endured this tragedy.
Craig Scott, Rachel Scott’s brother, was in the library on that day where most of the killings occurred. In fact, he was right next to Isaiah Shoels and Matthew Ketcher when they were both killed.

Your public school system that you work for bares much of the responsibility for this!!!!! Did you see that one shooters shirt!?!? About natural selection!?!? We have tossed God out of the public schools, and replaced Him with an evil, woke, sexually perverse, curriculum that is totally atheistic! These boys did not have the type of learning environment that embraces good morals, godly principals, and strict discipline that was common in former times, even in the public schools. These two students were clearly evil, but the school system bears responsibility too! Bring back the three R's, strict discipline, and the bible!!!!!!!!!

The same happened In Uvalde. The school footage shows the officers outside of the classroom the gunman is inside of, and they are chatting and listening to the gunshots.🤬
Don’t compare them mass and school shooting were in incredibly rare in 1999 police department were not trained for them like they are now the polices followed there training secured escape routes and wait for the swat team to arrive since that what trained for after combine police officers are trained to do the opposite
This happened, and we learned so much by it. Uvalde shouldn't have happened with what we know about school shooter attempts. It makes me very angry and sad.
Only weak people prey on unarmed people. These two were the epitome of weak.
it's also weak people who bully others god knows what that can trigger off in other people especially if they have any issues but these two are no better the there bullies
@leomerkz7514 the bullies didn't shoot them.....its a little different. Plus they also shot people that never bullied them. How do you excuse that?

@@aaronnantz2289When I was watching coverage of the tragedy at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL back in 2018 on the TV in my hospital's cafeteria; a former coworker of mine named Lauren expressed her fears over her young son starting school in a few years time. In an effort to try and be helpful in assuaging her fears; I suggested to Lauren that she consider the idea of enrolling her son in a private school. Private schools seem less vulnerable to school shootings than public schools. Also; private schools have smaller class sizes and a fairer student to teacher ratio, so the teachers are able to genuinely care about their students and the students themselves are genuinely happy.
This tragedy could have been avoided if their mental health and issues of bullying had been taken seriously
Its not even taken seriously 25 years later. Just boys being boys.
I agree bullying is the root cause of school shootings. Stop bullying and you stop school shootings.
And yet its interesting that many students get bullied and do not plan massacres.
Eric Harris was a sick person. Other parents who had dealings with him found him scary. Some people are just broken.
yes absolutely and if people had taken the violent threats of those 2 teenagers seriously. if people had told the cops a few months ahead of time about the warning signs that these two savages had been planning they could have adequately planned to prevent this horrible tragedy
Three years after i graduated and my younger brothers were in high and junior high at the time. I said i love you and see you when you get home for a long time after that.
I remember coming home from school and seeing the guy falling from the window. It was truly terrifying going to school the next day.
One reason for this to happen imho was, that those young men were able to get their hands on guns, while they were probably considered not old enough to have a beer.
They didn’t get those guns legally though. Dylan wouldn’t have been able to legally get a gun as he was still 17. Not knocking down your point though, I get what you mean.
Uh oh, here comes the "gun blaming!" Lol. I was wondering when that was going to pop up in these comments. Did you notice that in the New Orleans massacre, it was a truck that took out all those people!?!? Golly, I guess we are going to have to ban trucks now!

A bunch of students, myself included discussed who would be likely to pull off a shooting like that in our school. Even the outcasts at my high school were outgoing and were included in everything and they were part of the discussion so we wondered, anyone could be capable.
Watching this made me cry😢
Did not realize it was coming from the medication?? What??? It has been seriously discussed since the 1980's that antidepressants in young people are extremely dangerous & should only be prescribed by a psychiatrist & have talk therapy. Every shooter has been a young man on antidepressants.
I don't think we should blame medications-more like lack of personal responsibility.

Antidepressants remove ALL feelings, not just depression. They turn you into this emotionless zombie.
There's a well documented study where antidepressants actually increase suicide rates due to them removing the fear aspect of suicide. Now that they're emotions are gone it makes it much easier for them to go through with it; when before they couldn't do it. Its the exact same with shootings...

This is why, as a teacher, I am so serious about safety protocol. I take keeping my door locked very seriously. I don't let kids work outside my room in the hall either. Things in life are going to happen, but I put the safety of my students first. They are my kids while they are there.
This happens too often.
🙏
Another case of law enforcement being informed on a troubled kid, and doing absolutely nothing about it….
I remember this day . Saddest day in America started bad trend of school shootings 😢
Even sadder was that this wasn't the first. The first school shooting I heard about happened in '95. Columbine was the worst for a long time.
Release the basement tapes!!!
What is spooky how they obtained the weapons someone failed...
They were straw purchased for them. The guy that bought them got 7-8yrs in prison….
I was in the 9th or 10th grade when this happened. Our teachers told us about it and it was a big deal. My response was, "Do we get to go home early?"
It is amazing what we think when we are kids.
R.I.P to all of the victims.
I was in 8th grade when this happened. Sad that’s it so normal to us now.
16:51 every single time I’ve ever heard a gun go off, even from a distance, I knew immediately what they were. You don’t confuse gunshots for anything else. You normally confuse other loud pops as gunshots.
Remember it like it was last week. My school along with quite a few others across many states locked down because the so-called trench coat mafia was widespread and they thought there was a chance that would be a coordinated attack at many schools.
Unimaginable 😢 can’t begin to imagine what they all went through. 💔
How did either of the parents not know their kids were sick. How did they get ammo at their age, and the weapons. How can all of that go un noticed by their parents😢😢😢😢
Read Dylan’s mother’s book and you will find out. Or watch her Ted Talk.
The little you find out from Harris’s father is that when he called police, he knew the shooter was his son. He had a notepad list of what things Eric did. He knew there was something wrong with Eric but there is nothing he could do. Post mortem psych evals believed Eric was a sociopath or psychopath.
An older friend, (female), bought at least 1 of the guns for them.
@@marymackenzie4854Three of them, actually.
Yup! Sue Klebold explained everything in her book.
It is sick the police stayed outside
They didn't intervene because the shooters were white.
The police had no training for such situation blame the bullies
This happened my Freshman year in high-school, I remember this being absolutely shocking and terrifying!
The police should have done their jibs and stopped them. They let those poor kid get murdered. The same thing happened here in Uvalde Texas. The police did nothing to save those kids. Shameful
I meant jobs
I think the police are getting paid to not save lives anymore that's why their so useless at thier jobs.
WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THIS I WAS IN MY CLASS, JUNIOR YR, I WAS FULL OF ANGER TOO, AND I DECIDED TO DO THE SAME THING SOME TIME THAT YEAR, BUT THEN WHEN I SAW THE TV NEWS AND ALL THOSE INNOCENT, MY HEART CHANGE
Hieno dokumentti, Kiitos siitä ja oppikaamme myös. Kukaan ei synny pahaksi. Rakasta ensin itseäsi jotta pystyt rakastamaan toista. Piia.
This happened my senior year of HS, small school in SE Oklahoma. Guns were a normal in school parking lot, many mornings a few class mates and i would dove hunt or duck hunt before school. I bought, sold and traded guns with one teacher through out my sr yr and done so in the parking lot of school at lunch, after Columbine we got in trouble and was told we wasnt allowed to do so in school property anymore. I guess we wasnt ever allowed to, but it wasnt a big deal to anyone. Its crazy the changes of cause and effect since then up to today, of how people was vs are now.. its a sad world we live in
I went to high school in South Carolina, graduated in 99 and saw the same thing. Lots of students had rifles or shotguns mounted in their trucks. After this incident, that was it. Weapons were banned off school property.
I can’t remember whose dad it was but he was really mad that the police didn’t release the basement tapes
The footage from the basement tapes conflicts with the official story. The basement tapes will never be released as they can debunk the entire massacre.
@@AntiMasonic93what do you mean "debunk"?
@@AntiMasonic93or the tapes can be a training manual for shooters in the making
horrifying. no matter if you're left wing or right wing in america, surely you must all agree gun violence needs to stop or be reduced greatly. how you americans do it is up to you. but it sometimes seems like the right wing don't care.
I get that the shooters had feelings of rejection from their peers and low self esteem but how did that become so much rage and hatred?
It started such a sad trend. RIP 😢😢😢
3 and 1/2 hours before the police do something. JESUS CHRIST! Give up your badges, You police are useless!
Yaaa UNREAL , FREAKIN Cops waiting on NAVY seals ?
Assholes is what comes to mind.
😡
Swat teams entered columbine approximately 45 mins after the shootings started. It took a further 5hrs before they declared the scene as under control
Gaining entry 3.5hours after the attack started is unacceptable...for those wounded its an eternity, for those still alive their sitting ducks and the mental anguish for the survivor's is irrepairable..too many missed opportunities to intervene
36:16 police are not your friends and are under no obligation to protect you. Never forget that fact
Rip those students
I would still bet anything Brooks Brown didn’t talk to Eric in the parking lot. He maybe saw him driving into the lot from far away. Brooks was seen by the smokers area by multiple people and he is a known compulsive liar. I’m still surprised his account of talking to Eric that morning was just accepted as true by so many people
How is he a known compulsive liar? About what?
This is just horrific.
This is absolutely awful and it just goes to show by the time the police do anything everyone inside is badly injured or dead something needs to change rip to all 😢😢😢
Change starts with us.
Change did occur in police response. It is why there were criminal trials against the officers at Uvalade and Parkland because the training is that police enter right away.
@@KarilynM change didn't happen much if school shootings are still happening. Just saying
I was only a year and a half old when this happened. But the pain of that wouldn't ever go away.
****HOW DO THOSE COPS SLEEP AT NIGHT ***AND LIVE WITH THEMSELVES,..***?????????????????????????.
I subscribed to your channel
Same with Uvalde later on. Gutless police did nothing and made it worse
Growing up is realizing the victims aren't who they want you to think they are.
JFC did all Americans simultaneously get a TBI?!? The access to guns is what made this happen. It is still what allows this to happen. You can blame police, parents inability to act, movies, mean kids… IT’S THE GUNS!
@@Scah1111 You can't blame inanimate objects for the actions of people.
heart wrenching. ☹️
This is what happens when you let everybody have access to guns with no background checks and no real reason to even own a weapon.
Not everyone has access to guns. Illegal to even buy them until 18 or 21. But….you realize anyone can buy a gun illegally? Gun laws only apply to those who follow the laws.
I can imagine the fear in these kids. I had a gun pointed to my face once. I really thought I was going to die. He aimed at my husband instead shot and ran. He missed by the grace of God. But the fear is like nothing else iv ever experienced. What scared me wasn't even the gun. It was the criminals eyes. It was literally diabolical and I don't know how else to explain it.
Thank God ur safe 🙏 can imagine it would be terrifying.
Sad that Law Enforcement was so cowardice! Too many kids lost their lives unnecessarily 😢
If they would have only listened to Randy Brown...he warned everyone possible
