This tragedy will no doubt go down as the worst school shooting that has ever occurred on U.S. soil. The families, friends, and teachers of the 13 victims along with the rest of us are asking why such an event was necessary. But we will never really know since the two killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold planned this as a suicide mission. I do not see these two cowards as victims--their solution to all of the teasing and harassment that they endured in high school was not one of justice. Countless other students are harassed everyday whether it is because of their physical appearance, group of friends, race, sexual orientation, or whatever it may be that another person doesn't like. These students don't go marching into their school to seek revenge by killing the people that hold hate or predjudice against them (with the exception of the previous school shootings)!

So who do we blame? Do we blame the schools for not punishing the harassers enough? Do we blame the parents and how they have "brought up" their children? Do we blame the gun sellers--ordinary people out to make money like most other Americans? All of these people are easy scapegoats but I honestly don't think that any of them are to blame. America is failing where Christian living is concerned. The value of life isn't as important as it used to be. Right now I see America as a plane taking a nose dive towards the ground. Hopefully this incident will affect us enough to make us want to turn our lives around.
