20 years ago today - Columbine High School massacre- where were you?

At 11:19 AM MDT is the time the shooting took place and lasted for 49 minutes.
This event was definitely a life changing experience for most of us. I was in 11th grade and remember the feeling of fear and always having to be more cautious by always thinking about what my plan would be in each classroom I was in if a shooting were to happen at my school. I never had that fear before Columbine.

At work.. not believing it happened. Now, unfortunately, news like this is almost a blip in people’s day.

I was 7 years old. I didn’t really have an understanding of what was going on.

It’s the world we live in now. Information arrives in our hands instantaneously. I don’t think people have become “desentisized,” I think people today now realize how terrible people can be. It’s an unintended consequence in a highly technical society.

Bruh, it was 4/20, I was probably smoking a bowl jamming to Phish.

I was 21. I don't remember to be honest.
Probably in class in nursing school.

The one that inspired all other school attacks . Ugh.
These kids hopped up on dangerous anti-depressants ruining those other lives . Such a shame

I was in 5th grade. I remember my parents watching it on the news but that’s about it.

Probs throwing my sippy cup on my mom or something along those lines

I was a senior in high school.

was 16 in school here in mississippi. It was a big deal obviously... but Pearl,MS was before columbine.. and that was closer to home for us

Didn't hear about it till after school. This was before cellphones. School banned trench coats the week after. The Columbine library video is probably the 3rd worst video i ever seen behind the station night club fire and daniel pearl getting beheaded

Watched it unfold in horror in real time. Creepy and very evil incident. A symptom of a sickness in American society.

I was a sophomore in high school. Had just moved to Phoenix in January and was going to a high school with 3000 kids...wishing I could move back to Mississippi to my private school that had 600 people in it from K-12.
I remember sitting in the cafeteria with about 500 other people watching all of it unfold on tv. The only time that many people in the cafeteria were completely silent.

In college, I really don't remember the day it happened, I didn't really follow the news much back then..

We were visiting my GFs parents in England and it was huge news even there. They broke into the primetime evening programs with the news report.

Oddly enough, I was living in Colorado. In steamboat springs where everyone starting at about 2 in the afternoon was transfixed.
If I'm remembering correctly, there was a school shooting in Oregon, perhaps Eugene, just the spring before. Maybe in 98?, And we were living in Oregon at that time. Started to give me a creepy feeling.

This is true, but school shootings were already a thing. My sophomore year of HS, a few years before Columbine, had a student bring a pistol into school and take a class hostage for a few hours before police finally ended it.
Still in prison from what I believe.

I don't remember to be honest. It was different than 9/11 when everyone was callin each other and telling them to turn on their TV immediately. I do remember being pretty shocked when I heard the details of how it went down and also thinking about the Pearl Jam song Jeremy.
