In the true American spirit, nothing is their fault.

Not that I wasn't rooting for those two the whole time they were shooting up the place, but come on now. Who gave them allowance?

The Klebolds said their son was set off by the "toxic culture" of the school, where athletes were worshipped and bullying was tolerated.
...
"I'm horrified," Dawn Anna, whose daughter Lauren Townsend was killed at Columbine, told The Associated Press. "I wanted an apology. I wanted a contribution to help us understand why it happened, so that it would never happen again. I didn't hear it."

Maybe because she wasn't listening?

I think all the parents involved are a bunch of spoiled yuppie brats.

I read an article saying it was more than them being angry about jocks and bullies, that Klebold was a goddamn sociopath who wanted to have bombs going off, too, and then have more bombs go off once emergency crews arrived.

Basically the only reason no one mentions the propane bombs anymore is because it's so much easier to relegate this kid to "troubled loner" status.

I don't know what to think of that. I don't really think it's 100% the parents' fault, but they ought to accept some blame because they didn't even know their kid was making bombs. Which is incredible, because when the police searched his room he had bomb making stuff on his dresser and everywhere.
