TheTrenchcoat Chronicles

Not too many days ago it was the 2nd anniversary of Sebastian Bosse’s rampage at the Geschwister Scholl School in Germany where he injured 8 before taking his own life. In one of my trips through the land of the mutants I saw some that posted a sort of tribute to Bosse saying that he’ll be godlike. If that wasn’t bad enough someone posted a follow up that said they wished they could have been one of his victims.

If your life revolves around the idolization of school shooters you need help. It’s that black and white. It’s wrong.

YouTube pulls Columbine videos:

This is an article from the BBC touting how YouTube has pulled a great deal of videos that glorify Columbine from their site. I thought to myself this is great, in theory. So I went to YouTube to check things out for myself. Nope, there is still a metric assload of Columbine videos on YouTube. Then I realized the person that the BBC interviewed was from Google UK. So I then thought that they must have pulled all the Columbine videos from the UK. No such luck there either. The very first video I clicked on was from Great Britain.

And again YouTube gives the same excuse that they depend on their users to flag inappropriate content. And again I say that’s flawed reasoning because the people who go to YouTube to see some funny cat video aren’t looking for Columbine videos and those that are aren’t going to flag the content.

Google can censor the entire country of China but can’t screen YouTube. Makes you wonder doesn’t it?

Student who threatened to kill Leon principal will not be allowed back to school:

Like it’s a question?

Anyway a 17-year-old from Tallahassee, Florida was arrested for plotting an attack against Leon High School and specifically Principal Rocky Hanna.

The suspect was a former student of the school who was expelled after an incident where he held a knife to his mother’s throat.

The FBI was tipped off after the teen was in a firearms chat room and tried to get information on how to obtain guns. He also spoke about his plan in the chat room.

When his house was searched no weapons were found but hey, guess what, the kid is a mutant…

After his arrest writings were found in his bedroom which included satanic/occult, homicidal fantasies and suicidal thoughts. The homicidal fantasies included idolization of the Columbine shooters and other similar incidents. Tallahassee police also documented that the boy had asked a friend if he knew how to obtain an Uzi submachine gun.

While the teen was living in Tennessee he had an ‘episode’ with his family…

In November 2007, the boy went on another rampage while in Tennessee where he attacked family members and talked about wanting to kill people, including Leon High Principal Rocky Hanna, and that he “requested that the police kill him.

Even though this kid is a mutant I think we finally have a winner in the ‘I’m actually insane’ sweepstakes. This kid needs a quick trip to and a lengthy stay in the bughouse.

Admirers of school killers exchange views on Internet:

This happens after every recent school shooting. Some media outlet prints a story about how the mutants congergate in their dark slimy corners of the internet.

“I love this day! I love it!” declared one person who had known about Matti Juhani Saari on his YouTube page a few hours after the shootings.

As I’ve been saying for the past 8 years there are groups on the internet that basically worship school shooters. Most of them can be found on LiveJournal, MySpace and YouTUbe.

“He was intelligent. He was beautiful”, says one video of Pekka-Eric Auvinen.

These websites are well within their rights to ban these types of groups.

“They all had much courage – if we want our community to change, we need to hear their ideas.”

But they never do.

Already on Tuesday, a website in the United States was selling T-shirts featuring a picture of Matti Saari.

They hide under the guise of free speech.

The same site maintains a list in which school killers are placed in a “ranking order” based on the number of people they have killed.

When it’s really hate speech.

The two shooters at Columbine, Jokela’s Auvinen, and most recently, Matti Saari have an iconic status on certain websites, similar to that of serial killers depicted in horror films.

Then everyone wonders why when it happens again.

Typical features include posing with weapons, shouting at the camera, shouting at the camera, firing into the ground, and television footage broadcast after the massacre.

Parents. teachers, police, and websites need to be made more aware of these groups. For the most part they’re not groups looking into the whys and hows of what happened and how future shootings can be prevented. They’re mostly a cultlike subsection of society that relish in these mass murders. Because their lives are unfulfilled they feel the need to live vicariously through the actions of cowardly mass murderers.

It’s not just kids either. In my travels I have seen adults, who were even adults at the time of Columbine, who worship or sympathize with these scumbag killers.

Freedom isn’t a right, it’s a responsibility. It’s high time we started holding people responsible for this cancer that infests the internet.

As always it was your pleasure.

Finnish gunman ‘admired other killers’:

It was only a matter of time. I’m actually surprised it took this long.

Some of his hometown friends said he was bullied as a child and described him as an outsider.

Of course they’re talking about Kauhajoki School gunman Matti Saari. Saari was 22 at the time he killed 10 people at the school before taking the coward’s way out and turning the gun on himself.

As I previously stated Sarri has been planning some type of massacre since he was 16. If you’re still holding on to bloody revenge fantasies long after you’ve left high school you need to get some help. Of course selfish and sociopathic losers like Saari won’t get help because their senses of self superiority see that as a sign of weakness. Not to mention if this was some bizarre act of revenge did he take it out on his alleged tormentors? Of course not. Like the coward that he was he took it out on people who were almost 200 miles away from his hometown.

The article confirms his obvious mutantcy as well…

The friend, whose name was not given, said Saari’s acquaintances had found out last year that he admired video messages made by the Virginia Tech school shooter Seung-Hui Cho, who killed 32 people at the US university.

“You could tell from his facial expressions that he admired them. He told us to have a look at them and said, ‘isn’t it great?’,” he said.

I’m not blaming his friends for what happened but that should have been a red flag that Saari had more issues than Reader’s Digest.

Any one of these mutants who have an admiration for losers like Cho or the Columbine killers are a potential threat.

Teen who killed 8 may have contacted Pa. youth:
There’s been more confirmation that Dillon Cossey was in fact in contact with Pekka-Eric Auvinen prior to the shooting that killed 8 at Jokela High School in Finland.

Police said material seized from the computer of Pekka-Eric Auvinen suggests the 18-year-old communicated online with Dillon Cossey, 14, who was arrested in October for allegedly preparing a possible attack at Plymouth Whitemarsh High School in suburban Philadelphia.

I doubt this will result in any additional charges for Cossey as he claims that Auvinen gave no indication that he planned the shooting.

Teen charged with Plymouth plot communicated with Finnish shooter:
No this isn’t a repeat. The link between Finnish gunman Pekka-Eric Auvinen and would be school shooter Dillon Cossey has been confirmed.

“He recognized the screen name and recalled having contact by email,” said J. David Farrell, who represents Cossey, 14, of Plymouth Valley.

Farrell said Cossey was “very distressed” to learn that Pekka-Eric Auvinen, 18, of Tuusula, Finland, had gunned down six students, a nurse and the principal at his high school, located about 30 miles north of Helsinki. Auvinen then killed himself.

Cossey told Farrell that Auvinen “gave no indication he was going to do anything violent,” and that Cossey “offered nothing in the way of encouragement” to pursue violence.

The teens shared an interest in a video game called “Hitman,” Farrell said, adding that they may have also had a mutual obsession with Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the students responsible for the Columbine massacre.

Farrell said he believed more information about the time and extent of the communication would be available tomorrow.

When these mutants congregate they share ideas and encourage each other to commit these acts of violence. For years I’ve been trying to get website hosts to shut these kind of groups down. They haven’t listened yet. I wonder if they will now. Maybe it’s time to re-start my crusade. Who’s with me?

The cyber school for killers:
According to the article not only were Dillon Cossey and Pekka-Eric Auvinen YouTube buddies but it seems they belonged to the same pro-Columbine groups on MySpace.

Police do not believe this to have been a coincidence. The two youths are thought to have made contact over two MySpace groups, “RIP Eric and Dylan” — a reference to Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who killed 12 schoolmates at Columbine — and “Natural Selection”.

And people wonder why I think that sites like MySpace and YouTube need to shut down what basically amounts to hate groups.

But like I’ve said before MySpace and YouTube wouldn’t have to if parents just paid better attention to their kids.

Speaking of parents…

Auvinen’s parents are regarded as somewhat bohemian in the small dormitory township of Jokela. His father plays part time in a jazz band and composes his own music; Auvinen’s mother is an activist for the Greens. They are regarded as stalwart members of the community and neighbours describe them as a “normal family”.

I’ll let you draw your own conclusions on that one.

Should YouTube play the censor and sentinel?:
In the wake of the Jokela High School shooting in Finland News.com has written this article asking if YouTube should censor the parent neglected little balls of hate like Pekka-Eric Auvinen. Before I educate people on the definition of censorship my answer is a a resounding yes.

First of all if YouTube decides to pull any video for whatever reason that’s not censorship. Censorship, in the U.S. at least, can only come from the government. When YouTube does it, which last time I checked they were not a branch of the government, it’s called enforcing their Terms of Service.

Here is all the reasons a YouTube video can be pulled…

1. Graphic sexual activity
“Graphic sexual activity” describes content which contains actual visible or implied sex acts.

2. Nudity
“Nudity” refers to exposed or see-through coverage of areas typically covered by a bathing suit or underwear. Sometimes nudity is allowed on YouTube, depending on the context.

3. Suggestive, but without nudity
“Suggestive” content refers to materials with sexual themes that do not necessarily depict sexual activity or nudity. Sexually suggestive content may not be suitable for all audiences and may include fetish-related content.

4. Shocking or disgusting content
“Shocking or disgusting content” refers to disturbing imagery, such as graphic depictions of violence, accidents or gore, which lack an appropriate context.

5. Promotes hatred or violence against a protected group
Hate speech is content that promotes or encourages hatred or violence toward a group based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, and sexual orientation/gender identity.

6. Harmful dangerous acts
“Harmful dangerous acts” may include content which is depicts behavior likely to cause serious injury or death to a third party.

7. Reveals personally identifying information
This refers to revealing information that identifies another person against their wishes, such as home address, telephone number, social security number or credit card number.

I think that the videos that Auvinen and his ilk make fall under several of those guidelines. However the problem is that YouTube, which is owned by Google by the way, really only wants to police the site for copyrighted content. What they rely on is for users to flag the videos for any inappropriate content. That’s what I like to call letting the inmates run the asylum. Craigslist has a similar policy with their “erotic services” section. The problem is similar as well. People going to YouTube to see funny videos aren’t venturing in to the depths where the mutants and their killer tribute videos lurk and the ones that do aren’t going to flag the videos because that’s what they like.

However as much as I wish YouTube would shut down these mutants it really comes down to parenting. Where are these kids’ parents when they’re making these hate filled videos? Probably happy that they’re precious little snowflakes are expressing themselves rather than disciplining them for being the dumbasses that they are.

As always it was your pleasure.

Finnish killer subscribed to jailed US youth’s webpage:
Well, well, well. It seems that mutant loser and coward Pekka-Eric Auvinen was YouTube buddies with another mutant loser mentioned in these pages, Dillon Cosey. Cossey was the home schooled kid who was arrested for plotting an attack against Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School outside of Philly.

Cossey’s YouTube page is still standing in all it’s mutant “glory” while Auvinen’s was pulled. I guess it takes a mass murder for YouTube to pull someone’s killer worshiping videos.

YouTuber Warned of Finnish Gunman in June, But No One Listened:
In other Jokela related YouTube news and YouTuber by the handle of TheAmazingAtheist was concerned about Auvinen’s and others YouTube profiles.

But months before the fateful video was posted, one prolific YouTube user known as TheAmazingAtheist called for the police to investigate Auvinen and others who had been posting videos glorifying the Columbine shooters and Timothy McVeigh, saying they were showing warning signs of being more than simply infatutated or interested in violence.

While his intentions were good my question is did he actually contact authorities or someone at YouTube or did he just complain about it on YouTube?

First it was AOL, then LiveJournal, then MySpace. Now YouTube is the prominent breeding ground for mutants.

Finnish school shooter was bullied:
It was only a matter of time before they trotted “the excuse” out.

The Finnish teenager who killed eight people in a high school shooting was a bullied social outcast but appears to have picked his victims randomly, a senior police official said Thursday.

Police spokesman Goran Wennqvist told reporters the gunman, identified as 18-year-old Pekka-Eric Auvinen, left a suicide note, “saying goodbye to his family and a message … indicating his will against society.”

Well, when you’re a mutant loser who worships at the altar of cowards you kind of invite trouble on yourself. It’s almost like these kids become mutants first then almost beg to be bullied so they can somehow emulate their cowardly heroes. Except for the fact that scumbags Harris and Klebold weren’t bullied.

Even if Auvinen was bullied just like his cowardly heroes he picked his victims at random.

Witnesses described a scene of mayhem in the leafy lakeside community, in which the assailant scoured the school for victims while shouting “Revolution!”

There is no revolution. The man is not holding you back. The only person holding this assclown back was himself.

Animal massacre act of revenge:
This kid may just take the mutant crown…

BROOKFIELD — The teen convicted of bludgeoning and stabbing to death almost 40 farm animals once posted an evil, hate-filled message congratulating the teen responsible for killing a Columbine High School student on a memorial Web site her parents created.

In the 2004 note, 19-year-old Lucas Timko claimed the world was a better place, complimented Eric (Harris) for a ‘‘good kill’’ and remarked of sexually assaulting Cassie Bernall, one of 13 people killed that day in April 1999.

Details of Timko’s life, including information about the death of his mother when the teen was only 3 and a fascination with serial killers were made known on Thursday when Eastern District Judge Ron Rice sentenced the Brookfield man to 15 months in jail in connection to the Oct. 31, slaughtering of 34 chickens and three peacocks and turkeys at an Amy Boyle Road farm and an unrelated theft.

He also was ordered to write a 250-word apology, fined more than $1,000, must pay $1,100 in restitution and placed on five years probation.

During court Thursday, Timko revealed his fascination with serial killers when asked by Rice about the number of books he possessed regarding serial killers found by police. The court also learned of his mother’s death while she was trying to save Timko and his twin brother from their burning home in 1990.

Timko underwent counseling after sending the message to Bernall’s parents. He also sent the couple a letter of apology, police said.

It’s obvious this kid is a serial-killer in the making. After his paltry sentence is up I hope someone is keeping him on a short leash.

It’s been a while hasn’t it? It’s been almost a month. I guess that’s a good thing because it means mutant activity is down but I still have mail. Let’s get on with it shall we?

This one was an e-mail I got with the subject “colorado shooting on 4-20-99″…

This is from:gdsmk624@aol.com robert(198.24.30.43)

first of all there a are some parents that know what the word RESPECT means. i personally am glad that the parents didnt search their childs room cause other wise they might be shot first and the shooting may or may not have been prevented.

RESPECT works both ways Robert. It’s obvious that Harris and Klebold didn’t RESPECT their parents or else they wouldn’t have kept their weapons in one of their parents’ houses. ANd obviously they didn’t RESPECT life enough not to kill 13 people. Whether or not the shooting would have been prevented we’ll never know because their parents didn’t lift a damn finger to do anything.

As usual from The Eric Harris journal…

I think all of those students deserved what they got.
Every day that you say something mean you should remember
this ” Are you willing to die for your beliefs”

Comment by Vodka — Thursday Oct 28, 2004 @ 8:34 am

Yeah they deserve to be shot for having no association with those two scumbags. Whatever. Next. Also notice that we have another mutant calling him/herself Vodka. Not an original thought by yet another of the mutant collective.

From my entry on The Columbine Death Photos…

All of you need to shut the fuck up, I knew dylen and erric they were both nice boys we were in the same gang together.
And they were my heros when they shot up the school like that. Did you know that they asked me to help them but i said no because it was stupid but now i realize i should have done it and helped them. It would have been so cool.
so all of you need to shut the fuck up, Those boys did what was right, Erric once said to me”i need to kill those kids and i’m going to, you know i need to fuckin kick start the revolution here!”

So all of you think what you want but what they did on that day was awsome and i wish i could have done it with them.

Comment by trenchcotemafia — Tuesday Nov 2, 2004 @ 8:53 pm

Another mutant claiming to know those two scumbags. Like I keep saying if even half the people who claim to have known them actually knew them they would have been the most popular kids in Colorado. You can’t even spell their names right. Not to mention the fact that they weren’t actually in The Trenchcoat Mafia. Just another mutant trying to convince people that his or fantasy is reality.

And lastly from my entry on The Eric Harris worship site…

This guy is an asshole we all know Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold are fucking heroes!!

Comment by plAyeR76 — Sunday Nov 7, 2004 @ 9:23 am

This could be your son or daughter leaving this comment but you’ll never know because as a parent you couldn’t be bothered to be involved in your kids lives.

It’s like those commercials. Parental Involvement: The Anti-killing.

As always it was your pleasure.

I got over 1,300 hits yesterday for obvious reasons and only one good piece of hate mail. Come on mutants. You’re slacking off.

Anyway I want to go over one of the articles I posted yesterday…

The Depressive and the Psychopath:
This is a great article which goes with my theory that the alleged “bullying” had nothing to do with the shooting. The FBI team concluded that Harris was a psychopath and Klebold was a sycophant. Now I do not condone bullying in any way shape or form but how come we never hear any of the bullies’ names? We hear how they were supposed bullied but we never hear the names of the bullies. According to the article the aftermath of Columbine would have been considered a failure in Harris’ and Klebold’s eyes. So they were in death as they were in life. Failures and cowards.

This one I saw yesterday but saved until today…

Iowa teen arrested after Columbine-style threat:
It turns out this mutant had no plans or weapons. It turns out he was a typical Harris and Klebold mutant. Just a punk who liked shooting his mouth off. When asked by his principal if he planned a school shooting he said…

“I don’t have to do things on the 20th. I can do them some other time.”

They locked his ass up after that. What gets me is this…

The shirt he wore to school last fall had pictures of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who killed 12 classmates and a teacher before turning their guns on themselves, and the phrase: “Always Remembered.”

What gets me is that someone actually manufactured a tshirt as reprehensible as that and is making money off of it and that his parents actually allowed him to wear that shirt. And to school no less. If parents just did their fucking jobs we wouldn’t have half the problems in school that we do now. These parents are just pathetic.

As always it was your pleasure.

Quick and dirty tonight but here we go with the hate mail.

As usual from the Eric Harris journal entry…

I think they had a right to do what they did. If people would have paid more attention and see whats right in front of there face then it could have been prevented. If they were to blind to see somthing like that and so mean as to treat people like that then they deserved it. They had it coming.

Posted by: TeeJay at March 24, 2004 12:57 AM

Hey TJ. Somewhere out there there is someone who thinks you’re mean. Karma is a bitch.

To keep the streak going one from the Eric Harris worship site entry…

Those kids took years of abuse and harassment and shoved it into those kids and those teacher’s faces. Not only did they learn to shut the fuck up and stop treating ppll like shit, I think just about anyone living with the ability to understand the situation learned too. Im sorry people had to die but it was bound to happen sometime, if they didnt do it, someone else would have. I admire then for their bravey and Ill always defend them because they were treated like shit.

Posted by: Alexis at March 23, 2004 09:50 PM

Common sense dictates that being treated like shit is no excuse to shoot 13 unarmed people. Again it’s not bravery, it’s the most extreme form of cowardice.

Ok this one is from the Spain Bombing entry but obviously the poster is a mental midget….

OK what ever your name is the ass that writes this crap. You sir are a complete and total fool you know nothing. You spew bull shit on almost every subject. I cant stand your smart ass remarks such as ass clown and how Eric and Dylan are burning in hell. How the fuck do you know frankly you don’t have a clue no one does its something beyond your comprehension and you sound like an ass when you say these things. go ahead and pick apart my spelling and grammar and call me a mutant, freak or worshiper do that but just remember what an ass you are when you talk so much shit about something you cant understand something like death

Posted by: NBK at March 22, 2004 03:01 AM

You see I and most people believe in this place called hell where killers go when they die to be punished for eternity. Therefore Harris and Klebold are burning in hell 13 times over.

As always it was your pleasure.
