Why did the columbine shooting take place?

Because of bullying. The victim and his friend had had enough of people bossing and teasing them..they couldn't take it anymore. So they chose to take revenge by killing people and then killing themselves.

Why did the columbine shooting take place?
at one point when i lived there, plano, tx, was the no. 1 site of teen suicide. upgrade suburb with upscale young professionals and high expections on all the children in sports and academics. lot of suicide back then. this connects to columbine to me in one way-- busy career-minded parents who failed to nuture their children. some cannot raise themselves and end up isolated and it really reminds me of an idle mind is the devil's workshop. they isolate and find their own interests and feel like misfits, which they are. no parents to take enough time with them. sometimes the misfits find each other. they identify with counter-culture themes. even to the extreme like the columbine boys. if you think about it it is the same in the streets of la every night. drive bys and payback killings. in witchita, dallas, atlanta, chicago etc. kids will collect and hook up their street family if the parents arent doing the job. even rich people make babies and just provide a nice roof and plenty to eat. it takes parents to raise children. it really is simple isn't it?
Reply:Blame the video game industry.
Reply:The 2 shooters were being bullied and shooting up the school was there way of getting back at their bullies.
