    2/1/04: From the mail sack

    I’ll talk about the Superbowl tomorrow. Right now, it’s time for mail.

    Of course, I got one about the Eric Harris journal….

    Eric and Dylan done it wrong……you dont randomly shoot…..you aim for the fuckers whop drove you too it….that said……they arent to blame…the school system is to blame….the adults who were meant to be protecting both the murderers and their victims are to blame.The parents,teachers…..Eric and Dylan are far from any blame if you can put yourself into their mindstate…….after suffering at the hands of mindless,selfish,selt centred conformists for so long …being teased and ridiculed for being ‘abnormal’ of course one day you will finally snap…and do any of you reading this actually think that when Dylan and Eric pulled the triggers they were thinking ‘Dont hurt innocent people….”…..Of course they werent!THEY were the innocents in the first place corrupted by society and driven to the massacre by the neglect of the school system and the cruelty of the other ‘normal’ students….So many of us every single day think of doing the same as Eric and Dylan did…..but we dont…..maybe we havnt yet reached that breaking point?Maybe we cant get the guns?How exactly DID they get those guns?I know how but HOW!How could that have been allowed to happen?HOW is it that the schools in America afterwards have (from what Ive heard) not taken the hint….and have (apparently….i live in europe so I cant say for sure…this is just what Ive read) cracked the whip down on kids they deem as being part of an alternative culture?Suppressing these kids(kids like me….kids like my friends….kids like Eric and Dylan) will only fuel their(our) hatred further.How many more Columbines will there be before people realise?How many more Dylan’s and Eric’s must emerge before society will accept that the freaks have feelings too?How many more people will die next time?Ill be bringing Columbine to the attention of the people running my school….but will they listen?No….theyl sit back and watch as the bullets fly and the bodies drop then after its all said and done…..theyl blame Marilyn Manson

    PEACE love EMPATHY

    Oh, for the love of God, can we get over the “blame society” crap already? Believe it or not kids, everyone is responsible for their own actions, fucked up childhood or not. They took up guns, they shot and killed people who had nothing to do with them at random. Yeah, they may have been harassed for being different. So were a lot of other people through the course of time. But how many times do I have to say it? That’s no reason to kill people. To all you people who insist on writing me to spew your crap about how great they were, I really feel sorry for you.

    And again from the Eric Harris journal entry…

    I AM 26 YEARS OLD….I AM AN ARTIST AND A MUSICIAN….AND I AM ALSO A PARRENT OF TWO BEUTIFUL CHILDREN. I WAS ALSO PICKED ON FURIOUSLY IN ALL MY YEARS OF SCHOOL WHICH FORCED ME TO DROP OUT. AND I ALSO REMEMBER WANTING TO KILL MANY PEOPLE IN MY SCHOOL JUST THE WAY ERIC AND DYLAN DID….I DID’T….ONLY FOR THE FACT THAT I DID NOT HAVE ACCESS TO GUNS. I FEEL MUCH SYMPATHY FOR THE VICTIMS OF COLUMBINE….BUT TO SAY THAT ERIC AND DYLAN ARE SCUM BAGS…. YOU ARE AN IGNORANT FUCK AND YOU WILL BE JUDGED BY GOD…… GOOD LUCK!

    *sigh* They killed 13 people. Maybe you should seek professional help to deal with those feelings of killing people you have. I need a macro that says, “A lot of us were picked on in school, but we DIDN’T KILL ANYBODY!!!!!!!!!” Remember people, murder is wrong. I feel sorry for your kids.

    1/26/04: From the Mail Sack.

    I know. I know. It’s Monday and I haven’t gotten to the mail yet. Well, your hero was stranded in an undisclosed location due to the winter storm here in the Carolinas. We’re expecting some freezing rain, so I may be absent again. So to make up for lost time, here’s the mail.

    Can a week go by where I don’t get a comment or e-mail about Columbine?

    I think that you people aren’t looking at why people look at the boys are heros,alot of kids MILLIONS of kids are torcherd in school for being different,and no one not even a teacher does a damn thing. In school there was a girl who beat me up and consantly picked on me to no end. She sits in jail now because she murdered a women with her car repeatedly running her over. Or the girl who lied and said i called her a nigger so she could get away with busting my nose in class while I got suspended for something I would never say. Yu all seem like the type of people who tormented me and my friends in school,I ended up graduating a year and a half yearly to get away from those people.Out in the real world,I am considered a creative and artistic prodigy,who are you to judge what you don’t understand?

    you wanna bitch at me or tell me you think I am wrong with valide points (not oh you are a dmubass) email me

    Obvious spelling errors aside let me tell you something, Miss Farmer. I and many of my readers were harassed and tortured in school. BUT WE DIDN’T SHOOT UP A SCHOOL.

    I’m sorry you had such a rough time of it in school, but again, it’s no reason to kill 13 people. Those two little mutants were not heroes. They were cowards for hiding behind a gun.

    And let me just say to all the kids in school right now who are thinking about some kind of school violence. It’s not worth it. High school is just a blip on the timeline of your existence. Once you graduate, you’ll never have to deal with those people ever again. I hated high school. But once I got out, I got over it. And I haven’t seen anyone from there in over 10 years.

    This was from my entry about the Mepham football players being sentenced.

    I’m a teacher at Mepham and I stumbled onto your website. Do you really believe that if those boys were sentenced to an adult facility they would have been rehabilitated? As americans, we have to trust in our system and judicial system, and believe that they know what is right.

    Posted by: rather not say at January 19, 2004 09:57 AM

    See. This is what’s wrong with our public school system in America. Screwed up priorities. It isn’t about rehabilitating the offenders. It’s about punishing them. By all definitions, they raped these kids. I guess since they were the star athletes that it’s ok. If you really are a teacher at Mepham, you should hand in your resignation. If you were teaching my kids, I’d have them pulled out of your school.

    This one was from my entry from when Bowling for Columbine was released.

    hey u fuckers are dumb this shit u type on here is all bullshit get a girl friend and stop waisting your time looking up porn on the net and get a life

    Um…I don’t know what that has to do with the movie unless this guy is a Michael Moore fan. That would explain a lot.

    Hope everyone had a nice Christmas/Hanukah. It’s Sunday so let’s dip into the hate mail shall we?

    From my entry on the Eric Harris journal…

    Eric and Dylan, although they were sick, were driven to the edge by society, so don’t fucking blame the parents. I hate all you fucks who blame everything on the parents, and the kids. Society is the sick bastard here, not Eric and Dylan.

    Posted by: Anarchist Mafia 627 at November 29, 2003 10:24 PM

    Here we go. Blame society. I guess I have to say it again. If the parents had just kept a better eye on their mutant children, this tragedy would have been averted and the innocent people that they directly and indirectly killed would still be alive today. I can only dream that those two rat bastards would still be dead by some suicide pact or something.

    From the same entry (go figure)…

    It’s so long ago, and it didn’t even happen where I live. Yet what happenend on Columbine that day is on my mind every day. Eric and Dylan touched me deep inside. I wonder what must have gone through their minds the 20th, and what they were thinking when they turned the guns on themselves. All I can do is relate. Relate to what they have gone through every day of their fuckig lives. Because of humans. Humans who place the blame entirly on them and their parents. Come one, wake up. Hate comes back to you. In my eyes, everybody got what they deserved. And Eric and Dylan died as symbols of wrath. They left this cruel world in victory…

    Posted by raven at November 17, 2003 06:33 AM

    If those two little cowardly shits touched you deep inside, then you have no fucking soul whatsoever. You know what went through their minds on the 20th? Hot lead. They didn’t leave this world in victory. They left it as two sniveling little cowards hiding behind guns because they didn’t have the balls to do anything else.

    These people who worship these two scumbags need to be rounded up and institutionalized. They obviously lost the mental capacity to be a contributing member to this or any society.

    Mail Sack Sunday

    Only one this week.

    it wasn’t the parents fault that Dylan and Eric went on their rampage. it was the fuckin schools fault. the bullying and ridiculling never stopped because no one ever did any thing about it. if they would have done something about it this might not have happened. i dont know why the jocks were making fun of them. i guess because they think they are better than everyone else. why the fuck do they think they are better than everyone else? because they wear a fuckin jock strap all the fuckin time. who the hell wants dental floss up their ass? probably the creator of this website. go to hell FAGGOT!!!

    Posted by: kristen at November 5, 2003 08:15 PM

    See the mentality of the mutants I have to deal with. How many times do I have to explain this? Yes, the school could have prevented what happened. But it would have been much easier if their parents had just looked in the garage. They had an arsenal in their house, the school didn’t.

    Yeah, the jocks may have been harassing them. But if it wasn’t that, it would have been something else that set them off. It all comes down to the fact that they were two mentally deranged little fucks who their parents didn’t care enough to check up on them. In summation, get some help you sick fucking bitch. Obviously, your parents don’t give a shit about you, either.

    We get letters…

    From my entry on the Eric Harris journal…

    Well done Eric and dylan. I am very proud of you both and I hope people will be proud of me soon. I am going to do exactly what you did only I am going to kill EVERYONE in my school. I will aim for the heads and the propane bomb that I have made will go off when it is supposed to. Watch the news on the 18th of February ‘cos it’s gone to be a blast – so to speak – when I get back at those little fucking bastards and I hope that I get the same respect as Eric and Dylan. RESPECT 2 YOU GUYS. Hope the school mourns forever.HAHA. Fuck UR wife.Fuck UR kids and FUCK EVERYONE.

    I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried. Even if this isn’t a legitimate threat, you are one sick bitch for even joking around like that. Threats like that can land you in jail. For reasons, I can’t get into right now, that’s all I can say about that one.

    This one from the same person from another post…

    What the fuck is wrong with Eric and Dylan’s parents? It isn’t their fault! How many people would honestly expect their kids, no matter how depressed, would blow up their school. Mine wouldn’t! So for all the idiots out there who are blaming the parents, don’t. Eric and Dylan may have killed people but at least they had a reason. Leave the parents alone ‘cos they have lost their kids too.

    Posted by: Cheryl at October 24, 2003 06:20 AM

    Now this one I can comment on. I’ll tell you what’s wrong with their parents. They weren’t doing their job and because of it, 13 people are dead. I don’t give a rat’s ass that they lost their kids. If they did a better job of keeping up with their own damn kids, at least 13 people would be alive today. They had an arsenal in their own garage, for crying out loud. If that’s not bad parenting, then I don’t know what is.
