I am reading a book called Columbine
It is about the two muderers named Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold
They killed 13 people and injured more than 20
The 20 year anniversary was last Friday
I was on a trip to Arizona at the time
I was on my way up to see the Grand Canyon when the shootings happened
I did not get news of it till the next day when we got back from seeing Sedona
What thoughts did I have at the time of this attack
I thought back to my days of hating school
Mostly hating my inability to get a girlfriend or be popular
I thought that these boys suffered the same
But I was wrong
Eric Harris had girlfriends and did ok
He was in reality a bully just like Ed and Mike and many others at my school
Just he used bullets instead of words
So what is my solution to all this violence going on at school
The real bullets and the word bullets can be stopped if we collectively choose so
I'm not into gun control
I am into guns being locked up in cabinets where the father has the only key
And these same fathers modeling kind words to their wives and their children
That would be a start
