Guess our national leaders didn't expect this, hmm? On Thursday, Darrell Scott,
the father of Rachel Scott, a victim of the Columbine High School shootings in
Littleton , Colorado , was invited to address the House Judiciary Committee's
subcommittee.
What he said to our national leaders during this special session of Congress
was painfully truthful.
They were not prepared for what he was to say, nor was it received well. It
needs to be heard by every parent, every teacher, every politician, every
sociologist, every psychologist, and every so-called expert! These courageous
words spoken by Darrell Scott are powerful, penetrating, and deeply personal.
There is no doubt that God sent this man as a voice crying in the wilderness.
The following is a portion of the transcript:
"Since the dawn of creation there has been both good %26amp; evil in the hearts of men
and women. We all contain the seeds of kindness or the seeds of violence. The
death of my wonderful daughter, Rachel Joy Scott, and the deaths of that heroic
teacher, and the other eleven children who died must not be in vain. Their blood
cries out for answers.
"The first recorded act of violence was when Cain slew his brother Abel out in
the field. The villain was not the club he used.. Neither was it the NCA, the
National Club Association. The true killer was Cain, and the reason for the
murder could only be found in Cain's heart.
"In the days that followed the Columbine tragedy, I was amazed at how quickly
fingers began to be pointed at groups such as the NRA. I am not a member of the
NRA. I am not a hunter. I do not even own a gun. I am not here to represent or
defend the NRA - because I don't believe that they are responsible for my
daughter's death. Therefore I do not believe that they need to be defended. If I
believed they had anything to do with Rachel's murder I would be their strongest
opponent.
I am here today to declare that Columbine was not just a tragedy -- it was a
spiritual event that should be forcing us to look at where the real blame lies!
Much of the blame lies here in this room. Much of the blame lies behind the
pointing fingers of the accusers themselves. I wrote a poem just four nights ago
that expresses my feelings best. This was written way before I knew I would be
speaking here today:
Your laws ignore our deepest needs,
Your words are empty air.
You've stripped away our heritage,
You've outlawed simple prayer.
Now gunshots fill our classrooms,
And precious children die.
You seek for answers everywhere,
And ask the question "Why?"
You regulate restrictive laws,
Through legislative creed.
And yet you fail to understand,
That God is what we need!
"Men and women are three-part beings. We all consist of body, mind, and spirit
When we refuse to acknowledge a third part of our make-up, we create a void that
allows evil, prejudice, and hatred to rush in and wreak havoc. Spiritual
presences were present within our educational
systems for most of our nation's history. Many of our major colleges began as
theological seminaries. This is a historical fact. What has happened to us as a
nation? We have refused to honor God, and in so doing, we open the doors to
hatred and violence. And when something as terrible as Columbine's tragedy
occurs -- politicians immediately look for a scapegoat such as the NRA. They
immediately seek to pass more restrictive laws that contribute to erode away our
personal and private liberties. We do not need more restrictive laws. Eric and
Dylan would not h ave been stopped by metal detectors. No amount of gun laws can
stop someone who spends months planning this type of massacre. The real villain
lies within our own hearts.
"As my son Craig lay under that table in the school library and saw his two
friends murdered before his very eyes, he did not hesitate to pray in school. I
defy any law or politician to deny him that right! I challenge every young
person in America , and around the world, to realize that on April 20, 1999, at
Columbine High S chool prayer was brought back to our schools. Do not let the
many prayers offered by those students be in vain. Dare to move into the new
millennium with a sacred disregard for legislation that violates your God-given
right to communicate with Him. To those of you who would point your finger at
the NRA -- I give to you a sincere challenge. Dare to examine your
own heart before casting the first stone!
My daughter's death will not be in vain! The young people of this country will
not allow that to happen!"
Do what the media did not - - let the nation hear this man's speech..
Please send this out to everyone you can.
God Bless!
What do you think of Darrell Scotts speach to House Judiciary Committee's ? daughter was a Columbine victim.
I truly think it was God inspired....and the committee pretty much ignored everything that man had to say....
Reply:That was powerful. Thank you for sharing.

Why isn't my Columbine blooming?
I have two big, beautiful, bushy plants. The foliage is wonderful, but they have not bloomed and don't show any signs of it. I bought them as small plants from a local vendor, and they are 10x the size they were originally but have no blooms.
Why isn't my Columbine blooming?
old lady is right, Columbines love shade. And they don't like a whole lot of water. They are the state flower of my home Colorado. They like cooler temperature, semi-moist soil and lots of shade.
They transplant well. You can certainly take some of the plant with you when you move and transplant it in you new abode.
Reply:Some kids brought guns to your house and shot up the columbine?
Reply:Where do you have them in your garden? Columbines are shade lovers. If they are getting direct/bright sun, they won't bloom for you.
Reply:mine took a couple years to bloom. Now I have them popping up all around the yard.

Columbine highschool- a perfect case for gun ownership?
True or false?
If every student were properly trained to use/respect weapons and were armed at school, incidents like the Columbine massacre would be over in two seconds.
Columbine highschool- a perfect case for gun ownership?
Absolutely true. In areas where concealed carry has been permitted, crime invariably goes DOWN.
About ten years ago a middle school principal disarmed two boys who had killed a teacher and a couple of classmates. The principal had retrieved his legally owned pistol from his car and promptly ended the bloodshed without further violence.
I teach, and I am a military trained firearms expert. California law does not permit me the option to defend myself and my students should we ever be attacked.

Reply:there would be a columbine every two seconds...would you trust kids with guns....to earn respect you have to get it....
Reply:No, I disagree.
Students in the public school system are not all alike--they all handle aggression differently.
What Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold did at Columbine was an incident that should not for any reason be given the chance to occur again...giving kids mandatory lessons on gun control and GIVING them guns is not only absurd, but downright dangerous.
You know what it's like to take sex ed. You know what sex is already, you don't care about the exact mechanics of it--and most kids will have no benefit from the class that they don't already know the basics of even if their prior knowledge is just locker room talk. The only product is a generation that is desensitized to the subject.
Kids who are forced to take a gun class will not only feel cornered and pushed, but they might feel the need to resist against something they don't want to do. Granted, there are some kids who are responsible enough to handle owning a gun, but taking 4000 kids and putting a gun into each of their grasping, angst-ridden hands, then pushing them into a building of hormones, puberty, stress, and rejection...that's simply stupid.
Kids are that: kids. They vary just like adults do, and just because you're teaching someone about the dangers of something doesn't mean they'll listen.
Don't you remember D.A.R.E.? And look the statistics for the number of average high school students that do drugs anyway.
It won't help enough to have a major impact--and under no circumstances should every teenager in school be given a firearm. It's not responsible.
An optional class, yes. Teachers, faculty, etc armed, yes but again optional (some people against owning a gun might not want to carry one).
But most definitely NOT the students.
Reply:False. While I support gun ownership, the last thing I want to see is a bunch of teenagers running around with firearms. They can barely handle a vehicle, let alone a gun. I think that armed security at a school is necessary. Our schools have a city police officer stationed at the school whenever classes are in session.
Reply:You have got to be joking.

Reply:That is one example. There are others.
Reply:well not students because there will probably be a higher risk of accidental death then columbine and also consider if someone is mad they will go home plan and this and that steal or buy a gun and will proabably think its a bad idea, BUT if they were provided a gun already i think they would shoot right there. i believe security and faculty should be armed and teach the class what to do if something happens like that
Reply:Teachers, administrators etc. yes. Not the students. The columbine massacre could have been avoided any number of ways. If parents had better relationships with their kids, it the parents had properly secured their firearms and ammunition, if the faculty was better at noticing the problem behavior, if someone had interceded etc.
We shouldn't focus so much on the means they used but on why they felt it necessary to do.
In the 1980's a disgruntled ex-boyfriend used a half gallon of gasoline to set fire to a social club in New York. 86 people died in that fire without any guns being involved at all. I doubt he could have killed that many people if he had ten guns. You don't see us outlawing gasoline do you?

Is there anyone that went to Columbine or Virginia Tech?
Or do you know anybody that did or does. If you have i wanna talk to you. Maybe leave your e-mail. I would fidn it very interesting.
Is there anyone that went to Columbine or Virginia Tech?
my best friend went to tech. she graduated last year. the RA that was killed was her RA when she went. the guy that killed everyone went to my highschool for a year before transfering to the newer school that was built, but i graduated with his older sister who i've known since '95 (7th grade).

My obsession with the columbine massacre?
for some strange reason i have an obsession with the columbine shooters.i dont no why.i have always been deppressed and facinated with dark stuff but why am i so obessed with the columbine tragedy.and no i would never hurt any one.i hate myself and feell powerless all the time for being ugly.but were do you think the facination comes from.and if you havent heard of the columbine massacre.it was when two teenagers shot up there school on hitlers birthday which took place on april 20th.
My obsession with the columbine massacre?
The weird thing about life is that we are our greatest critic... you most likely view yourself more harshly than others.
I agree with Ade, try to focus on the positive and not the darkness...it might affect you more stronly that you believe.
Reply:Something about the event just stands out. Maybe its the whole story behind it. But eh, someone else will take their place in popularity with a much better backstory Report It
Reply:Why not focus on getting a makeover and not being ugly anymore? Nothing like new clothes and hair to make you feel better.
Reply:If you read your question, you will see you answered it yourself: "i hate myself and feel powerless all the time for being ugly" says a lot about you. that is a very dark way to think, and thoughts like that are insidiously destructive. you are fascinated because you see a little of you IN them. They too felt dark and powerless -- the difference being they over-sensitized it to the point of killing.
Now if you are a teenager -- as most people at YA are -- i can tell you life DOES get easier as you get older. For one thing, the kids that tease you for your looks, are the bullies that end up either in jail, or dead from doing something illegal. Also, having dark thoughts is normal -- 75% of ALL teens, ages 13-17 get depressed. That's a LOT of people. Also, when kids pick on you to the point where you don't want to go to class, just stop reacting.... end of story. As long as you react by crying or something, you are their favorite play toy. Stop reacting, they will eventually get bored, and stop. If they tease you for your geeky friends, DON'T ditch them. Because even if you do, you won't be cool... the bullies will still see you as their favorite toy. Not to mention you betray good friends.
Anyway -- like i said -- bullies always end up in jail, or dead. Why? Because they are used to totally getting their own way... and sooner or later real life comes along and kicks their butt royal. At school, they can throw stuff and beat kids up -- in REAL life, the cops call that assult and battery... it lands you in jail everytime, and goes on the kids record. So just be patient, ignore the damn bullies, and things will get better. I went through the same thing as you, when i was in school.
Reply:You'd be surprised how many people do. They're are web sites dedicated to Eric and Dylan.
Reply:Wow that first answer is so superficial.. go to a therapist. you need someone to talk to and work your problems out with. looks are not everything, and the older you get, the more you realize that. Try yoga and exercise, i know it sounds dumb but physical activity will get your mind off of dark thoughts and release endorphins, with makes you feel happy. Also start a journal and write what you're feeling, it will take away some of the stress. Even if you look like a model, you will still feel ugly on the inside if you try to hide what you are feeling.

What could have prevented the Columbine High School shootings in 1999?
I am a college student majoring in education and wonder what I could do to help students to overcome anger or any classroom managment problems.
What could have prevented the Columbine High School shootings in 1999?
The key to preventing the Columbine shootings would have been if the parents of Klebold and Harris had paid attention to the boys. There were numerous clues as to what they were planning, and the parents ignored and/or minimized those clues. People were telling them that the boys were making threats, and the parents didn't seem to care.
The journal from the father of one of the murderers was released this week. In that journal, the father tells of the people that came to him with concerns over his son. He refused to believe that the people were telling the truth, and refused to look further into the issue.
The boys were at their homes making bombs, and the parents didn't notice? Unbelievable. The parents just didn't want to admit that the boys had mental problems and needed help.
Reply:in New York we have and use metal detectors. Report It
Reply:I don't think anything could have as far as I know, they sound really psycho, if they parents knew cuz I guess they didn't. It was anger maybe, but they were really really psycho and into that kinda thing. Maybe stay away from that, violence?

Apparently, in the name of fair play and freedom the NRA would like to better arm the terrorists we are fighting
Sit down...pick up a weighted object, baseball bat, tire iron....hit yourself in the head 40 to 50 times...swing as hard as you possibly can
Now you are ready to think like a Republican
....see now how the NRA seems like a perfectly normal organization for freedom loving, warm fuzzy patriotic Americans....
now that your brain has suffered severe damage
See, that's the secret to being a good Republican

Reply:The rally was already scheduled.
No, they don't oppose legislation to keep suspected "terrorists" from buying weapons. They are just concerned..like all Americans should be...that if these laws are passed it will restrict law abiding Americans, which have the RIGHT to own guns, from getting them
If you don't like the fact that we have the right to own guns in this country, as granted by our Bill of Rights and CANNOT be revoked...you really should move to a country that does not allow private citizens to own firearms.
See, if you disagree with the bill of rights...you aren't being an American who's speaking his mind...you are literally an enemy to all the free people in this country. You cannot negotiate, change or alter those rights.
That was the sole purpose of the Bill of rights...to keep our government..and the wimps that beg the government to protect them...from taking away our freedom. If the fact that the right to bears arms was the SECOND most important right our founding fathers wanted the people of this country to have doesn't tell you something....i really cannot help you.
Now I'm not some dimwit idiot who tells everyone that thinks something is wrong with this country to leave. But if you really don't like our bill of rights...you honestly should leave...and a find a country that suits you. Because you cannot take that right from us...and honestly...you wouldn't want to try.
Reply:The NRA had their annual national convention in Denver, yes. Not a "rally".
No, they do NOT oppose legislation to keep suspected terrorists from buying weapons, as long as it doesn't also infringe upon the 2nd Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans.
Reply:The constitution made it clear that the founding fathers thought that anyone should be free to keep and bear arms-- not just those whom you or some selfrighteous fraud deem worthy or safe enough to handle a weapon.. It is still America and all her citizens have rights.
Reply:Get informed.
A middle school principal ended a killing spree by a pair of kids in Missouri a few years ago. He retrieved his legal and registered pistol from his car and disarmed the two punks who killed a teacher and a couple of classmates.
If trained and armed adults had been at Columbine or Virginia Tech, the whack-jobs who preyed on unarmed people could have been stopped like the two in Missouri.
The NRA has the best firearm safety program outside the military, and they have trained millions. They are advocates for LEGAL and RESPONSIBLE gun ownership.
Wait for the cops, and you'll likely be waiting for the coroner. The government and its minions aren't mommy or daddy, and they can't kiss it and make it better. This country was built by self-reliant people.

....see now how the NRA seems like a perfectly normal organization for freedom loving, warm fuzzy patriotic Americans....
now that your brain has suffered severe damage
See, that's the secret to being a good Republican

Reply:Yes, they oppose legislation to keep suspected terrorists from buying weapons. John Ashcroft said that doing so violates their right to privacy.
Reply:The rally was already scheduled.
No, they don't oppose legislation to keep suspected "terrorists" from buying weapons. They are just concerned..like all Americans should be...that if these laws are passed it will restrict law abiding Americans, which have the RIGHT to own guns, from getting them
If you don't like the fact that we have the right to own guns in this country, as granted by our Bill of Rights and CANNOT be revoked...you really should move to a country that does not allow private citizens to own firearms.
See, if you disagree with the bill of rights...you aren't being an American who's speaking his mind...you are literally an enemy to all the free people in this country. You cannot negotiate, change or alter those rights.
That was the sole purpose of the Bill of rights...to keep our government..and the wimps that beg the government to protect them...from taking away our freedom. If the fact that the right to bears arms was the SECOND most important right our founding fathers wanted the people of this country to have doesn't tell you something....i really cannot help you.
Now I'm not some dimwit idiot who tells everyone that thinks something is wrong with this country to leave. But if you really don't like our bill of rights...you honestly should leave...and a find a country that suits you. Because you cannot take that right from us...and honestly...you wouldn't want to try.
Reply:The NRA had their annual national convention in Denver, yes. Not a "rally".
No, they do NOT oppose legislation to keep suspected terrorists from buying weapons, as long as it doesn't also infringe upon the 2nd Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans.
Reply:The constitution made it clear that the founding fathers thought that anyone should be free to keep and bear arms-- not just those whom you or some selfrighteous fraud deem worthy or safe enough to handle a weapon.. It is still America and all her citizens have rights.

A middle school principal ended a killing spree by a pair of kids in Missouri a few years ago. He retrieved his legal and registered pistol from his car and disarmed the two punks who killed a teacher and a couple of classmates.
If trained and armed adults had been at Columbine or Virginia Tech, the whack-jobs who preyed on unarmed people could have been stopped like the two in Missouri.
The NRA has the best firearm safety program outside the military, and they have trained millions. They are advocates for LEGAL and RESPONSIBLE gun ownership.
Wait for the cops, and you'll likely be waiting for the coroner. The government and its minions aren't mommy or daddy, and they can't kiss it and make it better. This country was built by self-reliant people.
Reply:Did they really had security guards?
Reply:Yes they did, and they would sell weapons to Bin Ladin even if he was draped in the Saudi flag, singing death to America, strapped with suiside bombs.
Reply:They went ahead with a previously scheduled conference, yes. It wasn't a rally.
As for the security guards, I would like to see the evidence that supports your claim. I hadn't heard that before.
Reply:YES - but that's their right.......
Reply:Probably... they do love their guns. I think every time some crazy goes on a rampage and kills a bunch of people.. some NRA people should be picked up and thrown in jail too.. after all it is because of them that there are guns on the street.
Movie question for Bowling for columbine?
1)why does the NRA defend the 2nd Amendment so stridently?
2)How responsible is the NRA for gun violence in this country, or is the violence simply random?
3)Does American culture promote a society of fear and violence? Explain.
4)What parts of the film left an impression on you? Do you agree or disagree with Michael Moore in Bowling for Columbine?
Movie question for Bowling for columbine?
1. The NRA defends gun rights for the same reason that oil companies defend the invasion of Iraq. Because there is money in it.
2. The NRA is not responsible for the violence in our country. Many things contribute. The 'war on drugs' is a fine example of how a policy that creates violence is instituted on the basis of 'moral high ground' and ends up creating more problems than it solves.
3. Yes. I don't really need to explain. Look all around you. The aftermath of 9-11 is a perfect example. Our country quaked in fear and went to war with a country that had NOTHING to do with the terrorist attack. We were, and still are, a country where fear and violence go hand in hand.
4. I agree with many of his points. His trip to Canada was a great example of how America is a paranoid country. He walks right into a house. It's wonderful. Can you imagine doing that in America?

Reply:1) A lot of people (including me) believe citizens has the right to bear arms. NRA has the right to defend their belief (and their business)
2) NRA has nothing to do with gun violence. These are bad people who made a decision to pick up a gun and use it for violence. General Motors would not be responsible if a person decides to get a Corvette and drive it 100mph over a crowded street.
3)Yes. American culture promote fear and violence and at the same time we look for an excuse why we have such a high crime in our country.

Does the incident in Montreal prove that Bowling for columbine was full of crap?
Michael Moore tried to prove that Canada was much safer because of their gun policy. Years ago a similar accident happened in Montreal. 14 women died then. This is what Michael Moore didn't show.

Why Is a Mom Buying Assault Rifles for 14 Year Old Who Plan Columbine-Type Massacres?
"The mother of a 14-year-old boy who confessed to planning an armed assault on a Pennsylvania high school was arrested on Friday on suspicion of buying a rifle for her son, police said."

Why Is a Mom Buying Assault Rifles for 14 Year Old Who Plan Columbine-Type Massacres?
it was a conservative mom. God,guns and homeschooling.

Reply:She's doing her duty as a member of the NRA.

Reply:Being a mother doesn't automatically make you a good one, that's for sure. I hope they throw the book at her. I'm tired of parents who either pay no attention to what their children are doing, or indulge them like she may have by actually buying him weapons. That's just insanity if that's the case.

Reply:if you live in this country it is you duty to own a gun and at least think of using it in a violent way. long live charleton heston that diaper wearing piece of crap
Reply:Becasue she's American - say no more
Reply:It doesn't say she bought the gun after finding out about what her son was planning to do, so I see no relevance for arresting her just because she bought him a rifle.
I live in the country and my former neighbor's son (aged 12 at the time) had several rifles of his own that he used for hunting with his father. He was raised around guns and was taught from an early age the proper way to handle them and the proper time to handle them. He was taught to be responsible with them. He was not permitted to "play" with them because they are not toys. He was allowed to target practice with his father's permission and was reminded of the rules of target practice before shooting.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with a 14 year old having a rifle if he is taught how to use it properly and is supervised until the parents know he understands the proper way to handle guns.
The problem here is the school system probably did nothing to stop this boy from being bullied and this child was given no coping skills to deal with his anger over being removed from school. He probably saw it as a punishment for being the victim of a bully. The mother probably had no other option because schools these days prefer to turn a blind eye on problems such as bullying rather than to fix the problems.
While I do not ever wish for students to be killed by other students, I do believe the schools need to be given more freedom to discipline and expel problem students. Schools need to have better venues for students ro report and have resolved issues with other students...especially in cases where bullying is going on.
This case makes me think the mom's arrest has more to do with her socio-economic level than anything else. If she were a member of the elite upper class, she would have never been arrested...it would have never even been considered as an option.

What are the lesson from VT & Columbine?
Laws didn't stop them.
Maybe we need to stop being so hard on one another and teach our children to do the same.
Teach our kids not to be bullies.
Lead by example in working out problems rather than running off to divorce court.
Not easy solutions but they are the best solutions.
What else do you think are the best solutions not the easy ones?
What are the lesson from VT %26amp; Columbine?
1. Learn to be fair to people from other nations, cultures, and people who look different from the lot.
2. Learn to respect and not be judgemental.
3. As parents, spend more time with kids and teach to not make fun of others.
4. Doctors and other health care professionals should reach out to people who need their help.
5. Improve surveillance and security in schools.
Reply:I have another answer.....
allow me as a responsible, trained citizen to carry a gun. i would have shot the assailants dead before they created any more carnage.
Reply:Sorry, those are NON solutions. We need to ban the 'antidepressant' drugs that were implicated in both shootings. And we need a Shooter's License system, like a Driver's License system. That would eliminate people with mental problems and criminal records from having easy access to guns, while allowing competent, sane Citizens their 2nd Amendment rights.

I will name my baby Velveeta if it's a girl, or Columbine if it's a boy. Middle names?!?
I was thinking:
Velveeta Coin-Savory
Velveeta Rayne
Velveeta Spencer
And/Or
Columbine JuneBenet
Columbine Anemone
Columbine Tyronne
Which out of those do you prefer? (One out of each list) Any other suggestions are welcome. :)))
I will name my baby Velveeta if it's a girl, or Columbine if it's a boy. Middle names?!?
i like those names a lot. they're really unique. I love unique names. Mine is Kirby. Both of those names sound italian. They're beautiful. I like Velveeta Spencer or Rayne and I like Columbine Tyronne. Good job. And don't listen to all the stupid people above me. I bet they named their kids Mary Anne and John. Boooooring...
Reply:so in other words , your children will be known as cheese and the awful shooting at a school, girl please rethink ur decision! Report It
Reply:I'm with Emmalynn. The names are neither original nor tasteful. Velveeta isn't even real cheese. Columbine - I didn't think of the school, I thought of the flower and paired with JB it's like two crimes gone bad in one name - he will be on the courthouse steps at age 18. I guarantee it. Report It
Reply:i hope you are not serious
Reply:I'm so happy your not going to be my mommy.

Reply:Velveta "My mother is an idiot"
Columbine "My mother is crazy"
Reply:I really really dislike both of the names. When I saw Velveeta I immediately thought of the cheese and Columbine I thought of the terrible event at the school, even though I know you didn't mean it that way. Obviously you like unique names, so how about you try some of these:
Girls:
Trinity Brianne
Athena Danae (Athena was the goddess of wisdom %26amp; Danae was the Princess of Argos in ancient Greece)
Blaine Alexandria
Charleigh Leann
Calista Rose
Haydyn Rose
Boys:
Tryton Pierce (Triton was the son of Poseidon in in ancient Greece)
Hunter Pierce
Derryck Nathaniel
Garrett Everett
Brett Hunter
Seth Cole
Mitchell Cole
Dustin James
I think all of these names are unique and beautiful. And as for the ones you chose, please consider some others first before you make a definite decision. You have to consider how other people will react to the names you choose and how your children might feel if they had these names.
Good Luck! I hope I could help!
Reply:Sorry to say but Columbine would be a horrible name. Your child will always be associated with the school shooting that took place in Colorado. Sad.

Reply:Actually, a columbine is a kind of flower. Do you want your son named after a flower? I'm afraid the girl would be called cheesy.
Reply:How about
Velveeta Spread
or
Columbine Hunter
Reply:OMG are you serious................. Cant pick one because they are not pretty names !!!!!!!
your daughter will be known as processed cheese , and the boy as the school that got shot up by students............. THINK TWICE.
Are you trying to get your kid beat up and made fun of until he is old enough to change Its name?????????? I think thise names would be child abuse SERIOUSLY.
You shouldnt be smoking crack at all but especially if your pregnant... put the pipe down and step away.
a unique name doesnt mean it equals a pretty name...........
Yeah it is YOUR choice, but............. you are not the one that will have to live being ashamed of their name, and being picked on for it......... YOUR CHILD IS !!!!!! what a way to destroy your childs self esteme !!!!
Reply:INSTITUTION? YES!
Reply:I personally wouldnt name my kids after meltable cheese or a school shooting. think about when they will be in school, kids will be calling your daughter cheese face or singing the velveeta song. and when your son says his name they will always be like " columbine? like the school shooting columbine?" there are plenty of unique names out there that you will not regret in the future such as,
Girl:

Reply:HOW OLD ARE YOU. JUST REMEMBER THAT WHATEVER NAME YOU CHOOSE WILL BE WITH YOUR CHILD ALL THEIR LIFE AND DO YOU WANT THIS LIFE TO BE ANY HARDER THAN IT ALREADY IS... PLEASE RETHINK IT
Reply:DONT NAME YOU CHILD THAT AFTER A FOOD THATS GHETTO! REALLY IT IS!
Reply:Please dont name your daughter after a brand of cheese--she will get so much crap in school--be good to her and give her a pretty name.
Reply:Okay..Glad to see that I was not the only one thinking this was odd..Whew...
Reply:Whoever thinks velveeta is unique has mental problems. And savory velveeta??
And from those middle names it seems like you're planning for your son to be gay.
Reply:How about Velveeta Cheese and Columbine Bowling?
I'm sorry, I just had to...
Reply:HA! Knock it off!
Reply:Great, unique names!
I like:
Velveeta Rayne
Columbine Anemone
I think Velveeta Coin-Savory and Columbine JuneBenet are both just a LITTLE to exotic...
...but remember, it's nice of you to ask the public, but in the long run, it's really YOUR choice:)
Good luck, and I wish your little one(s) happy lives!
Reply:Please tell. me you are making this up. Naming your child after a processed cheese food? This can't be right.
As for Columbine, that is also the name of a beautiful flower. HOWEVER, it's really not very attractive as a name.
Please go to www.babynames.com and find something suitable.
Reply:You are insane and how dare you my sisters little boy was in the columbine shooting! You are sick!
Velveeta Coin-Savory
Velveeta Rayne
Velveeta Spencer
And/Or
Columbine JuneBenet
Columbine Anemone
Columbine Tyronne
Which out of those do you prefer? (One out of each list) Any other suggestions are welcome. :)))
I will name my baby Velveeta if it's a girl, or Columbine if it's a boy. Middle names?!?
i like those names a lot. they're really unique. I love unique names. Mine is Kirby. Both of those names sound italian. They're beautiful. I like Velveeta Spencer or Rayne and I like Columbine Tyronne. Good job. And don't listen to all the stupid people above me. I bet they named their kids Mary Anne and John. Boooooring...
Reply:so in other words , your children will be known as cheese and the awful shooting at a school, girl please rethink ur decision! Report It
Reply:I'm with Emmalynn. The names are neither original nor tasteful. Velveeta isn't even real cheese. Columbine - I didn't think of the school, I thought of the flower and paired with JB it's like two crimes gone bad in one name - he will be on the courthouse steps at age 18. I guarantee it. Report It
Reply:i hope you are not serious
Reply:I'm so happy your not going to be my mommy.
Reply:how about a relative's name. u could name the child after his dad if it is a boy. he could be a 2nd. or a junior. your name might be a good middle name if it is a girl.
Reply:Velveta "My mother is an idiot"
Columbine "My mother is crazy"
Reply:I really really dislike both of the names. When I saw Velveeta I immediately thought of the cheese and Columbine I thought of the terrible event at the school, even though I know you didn't mean it that way. Obviously you like unique names, so how about you try some of these:
Girls:
Trinity Brianne
Athena Danae (Athena was the goddess of wisdom %26amp; Danae was the Princess of Argos in ancient Greece)
Blaine Alexandria
Charleigh Leann
Calista Rose
Haydyn Rose
Boys:
Tryton Pierce (Triton was the son of Poseidon in in ancient Greece)
Hunter Pierce
Derryck Nathaniel
Garrett Everett
Brett Hunter
Seth Cole
Mitchell Cole
Dustin James
I think all of these names are unique and beautiful. And as for the ones you chose, please consider some others first before you make a definite decision. You have to consider how other people will react to the names you choose and how your children might feel if they had these names.
Good Luck! I hope I could help!
Reply:Sorry to say but Columbine would be a horrible name. Your child will always be associated with the school shooting that took place in Colorado. Sad.

Reply:Actually, a columbine is a kind of flower. Do you want your son named after a flower? I'm afraid the girl would be called cheesy.
Reply:How about
Velveeta Spread
or
Columbine Hunter
Reply:OMG are you serious................. Cant pick one because they are not pretty names !!!!!!!
your daughter will be known as processed cheese , and the boy as the school that got shot up by students............. THINK TWICE.
Are you trying to get your kid beat up and made fun of until he is old enough to change Its name?????????? I think thise names would be child abuse SERIOUSLY.
You shouldnt be smoking crack at all but especially if your pregnant... put the pipe down and step away.
a unique name doesnt mean it equals a pretty name...........
Yeah it is YOUR choice, but............. you are not the one that will have to live being ashamed of their name, and being picked on for it......... YOUR CHILD IS !!!!!! what a way to destroy your childs self esteme !!!!
Reply:INSTITUTION? YES!
Reply:I personally wouldnt name my kids after meltable cheese or a school shooting. think about when they will be in school, kids will be calling your daughter cheese face or singing the velveeta song. and when your son says his name they will always be like " columbine? like the school shooting columbine?" there are plenty of unique names out there that you will not regret in the future such as,
Girl:
Mckenna
Mikayla
Mikelina ( mik- elle- eena)
Linaya ( Lin- nae-uh)
Lena (lee-na)
Alena ( Uh-lee-na)
Alexia

Did working mothers on birth control cause the Columbine Massacre?
I could've sworn that former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said something like that in 1999. I could be wrong though.
Did working mothers on birth control cause the Columbine Massacre?
Sure. Why not? What the hell.
Reply:no
Reply:i don't see any connection
Reply:Never heard of that one.
