Given the impact Columbine and the string of similar devastating tragedies have had, I believe the "Nobodies" need to be heard, taken seriously, properly treated, and shown that they do matter. By no means do I hold these two in the light as "heroes" yet as deeply disturbed young souls who should've been treated but were allowed to be morphed into heartless killers.

I wish so much more could've been done for them before they set about committing this heinous crime along with others who were mentally troubled and had little to no treatment at all. Still, honoring psychopathic criminals is a line I don't think should be crossed.

Pay attention to the signs, take immediate action, and most of all (especially for parents) be there for your children when they are at dire and troubled mental states. As disgusted and grieved by this as with other shootings, I hope others who do need help will have better than what these two did and that we don't have to see anymore repeats of these tragedies if possible.
