Last week I woke up, got some breakfast and sat down to read the newspaper, it read: ‘’ Armed Youths Kill Up to 23 in 4-Hour Siege at High School. Laughing as they killed, two youths clad in dark ski masks and long black coats fired handguns at will and blithely tossed pipe bombs into a crowd of their terrified classmates Tuesday inside a suburban high school southwest of Denver, littering halls with as many as 23 bodies and wounding at least 25 others. The gunmen, embittered youths reportedly fascinated with paramilitary culture, kept police sharpshooters at a distance for more than four hours before they apparently used their guns on themselves’’

I thought to myself: ‘’ that’s crazy who would do such a thing?’’ and starting reading the article through it was your school, and then I saw who did it. I kept saying to myself: ‘’you’re innocent, you’re innocent’’ over and over again. I couldn’t believe it. I was outraged. I was not mad at you, but at surroundings I knew you didn’t have a very good life, but never this, never this.

You’ve always been an outcast, you never hung out with a lot of people, and you kept to yourself. You were always picked on, but does it justify this? You’ve had a tough life, you have never been smart, and you have never been strong. You were below average, and so you were not popular. You had one friend he was almost the same as you, you hatched this plan and now, it is too late to turn back. The world is shocked; they blame video games, drugs, mental illnesses, and lack of guns on the school premises. You would think this was just a onetime thing, but it’s not this has happened multiple times. History really does repeat itself.
