Maybe REB and VoDkA weren't so bad. sure, they way they handled their problems wasn't the smartest way, but they took care of it, and they helped some kids that were having trouble with being picked on by bigger kids. they might have done what the did becase THEY were being bullied. below is a report on the reasons of klebold (VoDkA) and harris (REB) that a friend of mine wrote, when he was supposed to write a report on bullying.

"Bullying" by Dan Peterson

"this weekend i was doing some research on the columbine school shootings. the two most common reasons for what eric harris and dylan klebold did are hatred for school, and jocks picking on them.  i believe that this couldn've been anyone, not just eric and dylan, but their constant bullying fueled the fire even more.  eric was on some anger medication (luvox i think) and was said to have anger problems.  when one of his friends, brooks brown, told eric's mom that eric had set a bush on fire, toilet papered a tree, and glued locks at a neighbor's house.  eric was furious.  when eric saw brooks at the bus stop the next day, he threw a chunk of ice at his wind shield, breaking it.  i believe bullying can have major effects on someone's life on several occasions.  i have been made fun of, and beaten up twice.  both times were on school property, but nothing has beend one.  i dont have many friends, but i dont want many. my best friends are easily zach and eric (raymer). zach and i support each other often, mostly in school. we've done homework together before also. oftentimes the same kids make fun of us, for whatever reason. i thin it's really made a differance in who i am. i am not very trusting towards people i dont know because most people i meet turn on me. it usually takes a lot to earn my trust, in fact, i dont even trust most of my friends because they make fun of me sometimes. personally, i think the only way to get rid of bullies is to get rid of them completely. there are varius methods, of which i wont go into detail. i have to say that in a certain sort of way, on april 20, 1999, eric and dylan really did us a favor. eric and dylan make several recordings about what they were planning to do. i found a couple on the internet after a couple hours of searching. they were somewhat odd. they had called themselves "hitmen for hire" sometimes and got paid by classmates over their town, and set off many fireworks at "targets" houses and had many narrow escapes. they often drank and smoked. they had online nicknames they used for each other and always refered to each other by those names online. eric was REB, short for rebel, and dylan was VoDkA, which i'm assuming he got for lots of drinking. they started putting their so called "missions" on eric's website. apparently, they were also going to post some hard-liquor recipes. i dont know if they ever got around to it, but i couldn't find any evidence that they had. i think the scariest part is how much ammunition and guns they had unchecked by their parents. they even founda bomb kit in eric's room, but only took away the completed bombs. that was rather odd i though. eric was also really into "DOOM", the first person shooter. i've played it, actually...i own it. it's pretty fun. eric made some leve's for the game and they're rather legendary. most commonly known as the "harris levels". i've downloaded them. one was rated number 3 or 4 in the top 100 DOOM levels of all time. eric increased the gore and effects of the weapons to this day, i don think anybody knows how he did it."
