I was in college and had just returned to my apartment when my roommate told me about it. This was a little unnerving being we were both going to school to become teachers.

I was paying attention to the hundreds dying in Serbia, instead of the bakers dozen in Colorado.

This event was definitely a life changing experience for most of us.
Being a bit dram if you think that "most" people were effected by it. 90s had issues brought to us by depressing NW music. Heck a HS local kid brought a shotgun to school, and shot himself in front of class. Pearl Jams "Jeremy" was totally "written" about it, so many older kids said...ha!
Lingering effects have been worse. Let all the pussies in this country rise to the top, and stay there.

Very few remember Luke Woodham. Part of me wants to believe because the Vice Principal at the high school apprehended him with his own pistol.

There was a church parking lot, which was used by kids who didn't have a parking pass (basically sophomores that were old enough to drive). The church charged like $10 a month.
Well that is just were kids met up to smoke pot before school. That morning he was beat up by some other kids for not paying a debt he had. He went home grabbed a gun and took his math class hostage.
From what i remember he had other issues and was a 16 (almost 17) year old freshman.

I was coming back from Colorado Springs on I-25 near Castle Rock headed into Denver with my Motorola coworkers. We immediately diverted into the Jeffco Communications Center and listened to it all unfold on the various radio system. The next couple weeks were a blur of sadness and tragedy. I'd never been affected emotionally by any event like that before that point. It was very, very sad for those on the Front Range who had non-stop coverage of the massacre for MONTHS after that, every little detail. It was a different world then and we reacted differently than we would today.

I was a SR at LSU that year. I remember it quite well but don't remember where I was like 9/11.

Very deep assessment. I'm surprised you haven't been contacted by law enforcement to be a profiler or something.

I was in 7th grade and I remember very vividly sitting in Mr. Mac's MS Studies class, looking at the board and reading the date, and thinking to myself "Something big is happening today. We're going to remember this day for something."
Got home and it was all over the news. I immediately without thinking blurted out "frick me." And that was the first time I cursed in front of my parents.

This was the Communications ClusterF on that day that ensured nobody was talking to anybody else:

Don't forget the one in Pearl that happened in 1997.

I remember thinking plenty of guys who I went to high school with had gun racks in their trucks with guns and we never had a second thought someone would do that.

Perfect description for Harris and Klebold. They were a symptom of the times.
