Time magasin

it is written here that the "Time Magasin" has a copy of the basement tape!!!!...have you heard about that????

Selon le Time Magazine, Eric Harris et Dylan Klebold, les auteurs de la tuerie à l'école Columbine, au Colorado, avaient enregistré des cassettes vidéo dans lesquelles ils exposaient le projet de massacrer des centaines de personnes afin de passer à la postérité. Harris et Klebold étaient persuadés que leur action serait tellement spectaculaire que les producteurs hollywoodiens se bousculeraient pour avoir le droit de la raconter. Dans les vidéos obtenus par le magazine, les deux adolescents expriment des regrets pour le mal qu'ils causeront à leurs parents, mais ils ne manifestent aucune pitié pour leurs futures victimes. Les deux adolescents racontent également comment ils ont réussi à berner leurs parents et les autorités de Columbine pour obtenir et transporter leurs armes. Le 20 avril dernier, Eric Harris et Dylan Klebold , âgés de 17 ans, abattaient de sang-froid douze de leurs camarades et un enseignant, avant de s'enlever la vie.

Translation:

According to Time Magazine, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the perpetrators of the massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado were recorded videotape in which they exposed the project to massacre hundreds of people to go down to posterity. Harris and Klebold were convinced that their action is so spectacular that Hollywood producers bousculeraient to have the right to tell it. In the video obtained by the magazine, the two teenagers express regret for the harm they cause to their parents, but they show no mercy to their victims. The two teenagers also tell how they managed to fool their parents and authorities for Columbine and carry their weapons. On April 20, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, age 17, felled in cold blood twelve classmates and a teacher before committing suicide.

I don't know what the date on this article is, but it's always been my understanding that someone from Time was able to see clips from the Basement Tapes. As far as I know, the only copies of these tapes are housed by JeffCo. However, if Time Magazine has copies, I'd be happy to contribute to a fund to bribe someone to show us.

Seems to be worth reading... 13 pages long but this might be the source...

"Klebold's nickname was VoDKa (his favorite liquor, with the capital DK for his initials). On pipe bombs used in the massacre he wrote "VoDKa Vengeance." "

I never knew that he wrote those on the bombs.

Guess they weren't just Eric's babies.

Man I can't find the image ightnow... BUt I SWEAR there is a pic of one of them that says VoDKas Vengeance on it... If someone has that pic handy can you post it?
Or maybe it's my imagination

I found it! The joys of google...

I honestly had no idea that he wrote that. I suppose I've paid so much attention to the psychology of it all I haven't bothered with the arsenal.

Dylan spelled it VoDkA pretty consistently.  I don't think I've ever seen him spell it with his two initials capitalized even though that's pretty cool.

I think he had Atlanta hidden in his room too as he toys with the idea in his journal about strapping it to him to commit suicide.

I think the wording in the original article is misleading "..the video obtained by the magazine" as this certainly implies they HAVE the Tapes in their possession. I have never heard that Time Magazine has an actual copy of the Basement Tapes and I don't believe they do.
Time Magazine reporter Timothy Roche was permitted to view the tapes and subsequently released the details in the December 1999 issue of the magazine.
It's interesting and slightly disturbing to note that Roche was allowed access to the Tapes prior to the victims families, who then threatened to sue Jefferson County after the release of the Time article.

I agree, I always thought Dylan spelled Vodka as VoDkA and there are many examples of this throughout the documents. Perhaps this was just a mistake or assumption that he capitalized his initials by the reporter. I also believe 'VoDkA Vengeance' and 'Atlanta'  were found at the Klebold Residence and were not used in the massacre.
Item #0461 as a 1 1/4" x 6" pipe bomb "Vodka Vengeance" and Item #0462 as a 1 1/4" x 6" pipe bomb pipe bomb "Vodka Atlanta" that were recovered on 21/4/99  from the Klebold Residence alongside 4 other explosive devices, there were located inside a grey colored metal box inside a closet.

I agree with the above post
