To summarize, I think they had everything handed to them.

Two boys From opposite sides of the country but similar backgrounds met each other when they were 13. One had a lot of friends but felt incredibly alone the other hand few friends in his new home and always felt incredibly alone the two boys realized they had a lot in common and grew up together. Around the time they were 15 or 16 they started changing for the worse and during that time there’s no one to really guide them so they relied on each other and they fed into each others anger and rage which caused a cataclysmic event a sunny April day that changed the world Both for people who survived it and people who witnessed it. For those who were teenagers at the time they were part of our generation for better or worse.

Two best friends, disgusted by the world thy found themselves in, reacted with the biggest "fuck you" they could think of.

Sad tall guy and angry short guy combine forces into putting all the hurt they've had in their lives into 1 hour of hell. Then conspiracy theories, copycat crimes etc.

Two middle-class boys who lived comfortable lives with loving parents, lacked so so much perspective that they decided that the world was terribly unfair and that they needed to slaughter 13 innocent people in order to have revenge and infamy.
Or "two boys overreacted to the fact that life is just not fair".

Family doesn't change a shit when they had to spend large part of their day in abusive environment. Dylan was subjected to psychological liquidation by the society since he entered the C.H.I.P.S. program. I don't think we should differentiate between abusive schools and abusive families.
I doubt the "good families" stuff. If they really had decent families, they would be able to talk about the abuse at school and get moved out of the school. Like Brooks Brown initially did. They clearly weren't encouraged to care about their well-being. Sue Klebold hates picky eaters which shows that she probably doesn't give a fuck about well-being of others. She probably indoctrinated Dylan that it's bad to quit bad environments.
Also, they weren't innocents. The only innocents are those who demand that victims of psychological liquidation must receive awesome compensation and high quality help in recovery and disabled victims of psychological liquidation must receive generous disability pensions that more than compensate for lost income. All others are vile traitors.

Are you saying Kyle Velasquez was not an innocent? You are messed up.
And balls to it being an "abusive environment", there are children who suffer far more abuse at home and at school who never shoot up schools. They weren't repeatedly raped, they weren't beaten, they never worried that they weren't going to have enough to eat, they never came home to find their mom OD'd on the sofa. So the Harrises and Klebolds were not perfect parents... So what? It happens. The issue is that life is shitty and unfair, you learn it at school and you learn it as adults. If you don't like it, you try to change the world for the better. You don't plant propane bombs and shoot up a school.

Again all of the victims were innocent not just Kyle. Kyle I’m sure was really awesome but so were Mr. Sanders and Lauren and Danny Mauser....
Also I’m pretty sure Kyle was suspended from a school for setting someone’s hair on fire. So we are all capable of good and bad things. Obviously though he didn’t deserve what happened to him he should be living a great life along with the other 12 that were killed that day

As do I.
They had issues that festered for a long time.

Yes. For every martyr there's a thousand of nameless suicides, forgotten, unavenged. For every suicide there's a dozen struggling in poverty due to trauma. Do you think I don't know it? I am one of the latter and I have nothing but gratitude and admiration for the martyrs who laid down their life to make the society's kill-ratio a bit less lopsided.
As for changing the world for better? It can't be done against will of the masses and the society is just inhuman and evil. It loves to punish those who were subjected to psychological liquidation and loves to punish those few who help them.
Do you know for example that most of prostitutes have PTSD and are victims of Child Sexual Abuse? 90% of them wants to quit prostitution but they can't. The treacherous hordes just love when victims of psychological liquidation are struggling in life so that they could degrade and exploit them as "losers".
I already wrote about the perfidious nature of the hordes of evil in the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Like that doctor was working hard to bring awareness of effects of childhood trauma on future health to ensure that victims will get the help they need and her research was just ignored because the privileged hordes with ACE score of 0 to 2 love when victims of psychological liquidation suffer so that they could feel like "winners".
You know, in a way, it's shocking to realise how many people didn't have crippling childhood trauma, didn't end up with mental disorder. Those of them who aren't outraged about that injustice and aren't doing everything they can to help victims, especially financially are the real enemies.

If "life is unfair, get over it" then there's nothing wrong about killing people at random. In that case it shouldn't even even be persecuted because "life is unfair, get over it". In that case there wasn't even anything controversial about shooting kids at school and planting bombs. "Life is unfair, get over it".
I'd argue that we don't need more nihilism. We need zealous hatred against the inhuman hordes that stand against help and justice for victims of psychological liquidation.

I think Chad Laughlin and someone who was in the limo with Dylan during prom was in it too. She was the one who commented on how much he ate at prom.

Demanding things of someone who was mentally disabled? Yikes.
I don't doubt they had issues in their home lives. I think that Eric had the typical military father figure who didn't accept failure or signs of weakness and a brother who lived up to his father's standards leaving him behind in the dust. I think that Dylan lived with his very aloof parents who despite what they say didn't pay as much attention to him as he needed. I think They were stuck in the past with the "golden boy Dylan" and didn't realize how he was spiraling.
Comparing pain in life is silly bc everyone's problems and issues are real to them. Everyone has something in their life they have had to work thru and to them it was hard.

Basically abusive family. They were also the assholes who ruined his growing up years by moving him around the country.

Judging by some little things Sue Klebold said like that she hates picky eaters, and about the confrontation with freshmen jocks after school, she just taught him to shut up and take all the shit he gets.
Like, it's not like they caused their mental illness by themselves, but basically put them in position where they couldn't quit the violent abusive environment at school and also put pressure on them long after they were broken by it.

Nonsense. Most of people aren't abused until they lose mental health and only a minority of people have shit piled on upon them by the society until they become mentally ill/disabled. There's enough research and statistics on it. Watch the video, read the Wikipedia article link I provided as a start. "Everyone has their problems" doesn't hold up to scrutiny and is just a weak excuse that traitors use to deny victims the help they need and justice that the society owes them.
More: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] There's distinct biological damage done to minority of people.
Most of people have it very easy in life. People don't have it hard unless they are struggling with day to day functioning and failing at it regularly. If there's no regular failure, it's very easy mode. I'd define hard vs. easy like an arcade game. If you regularly get "killed" it's somewhat difficult. Most of people play very easy. Like going to school is moderately hard (due to disability) if you have ~50% attendance. Then being at lesson requires rolling 10 on d20. Having 95% of attendance is when one has very easy. Only failing on 1 on D20 (critical failure).
So, most of people don't have it moderately or even slightly hard. Most of people have it very easy. And the work, school, etc. is centred around people having it very easy.

Dylan's parents strike me as part hippie part WASP. Seemingly really liberal and open minded but very concerned about appearances. It's remarkable how much they remind me of my parents and my upbringing.
I do agree Dylan was given a LOT of freedom. I never had the choice whether or not to sit down for dinner (unless I had an activity at school or something like that) but I also get the vibe that a lot of parents were kind of like Dylan's in my generation. Maybe I'm wrong?

I am not here to argue minutiae. We won't agree on this and that is ok.
For me in my opinion, Eric and Dylan were stuck in their problems they perceived were going to last forever. I think that if either had remained alive they would see these issues as minor and would be able to move past them. I am sure other problems would crop up as they always do in life and would they have been able to handle those issues? Who knows. In Dylan's case I think probably not.
However stating that what they went thru in their home lives is abuse is all people's opinions. If we again "compare" lives here, compared to what I went thru their lives were just peachy. I wish their issues were the issues I faced as a child. Many others might have the same opinion. Are there people out there that have "cushy" lives? Sure I think that is very true. Again compared to what I went thru. Does that mean that they don't perceive issues in their own cushy life? No. Their issues may not be huge but again they still have problems and those problems do affect them. It is not my place nor anyone else's to judge.
We can all cry out "I HAVE THE WORST LIFE EVER" and there will always be someone that has it worse.

If "life is unfair, get over it" then there's nothing wrong about killing people at random. In that case it shouldn't even even be persecuted because "life is unfair, get over it". In that case there wasn't even anything controversial about shooting kids at school and planting bombs. "Life is unfair, get over it".
I'd argue that we don't need more nihilism. We need zealous hatred against the inhuman hordes that stand against help and justice for victims of psychological liquidation.
Demanding things of someone who was mentally disabled? Yikes.
I don't doubt they had issues in their home lives. I think that Eric had the typical military father figure who didn't accept failure or signs of weakness and a brother who lived up to his father's standards leaving him behind in the dust. I think that Dylan lived with his very aloof parents who despite what they say didn't pay as much attention to him as he needed. I think They were stuck in the past with the "golden boy Dylan" and didn't realize how he was spiraling.
Comparing pain in life is silly bc everyone's problems and issues are real to them. Everyone has something in their life they have had to work thru and to them it was hard.
Dylan's parents strike me as part hippie part WASP. Seemingly really liberal and open minded but very concerned about appearances. It's remarkable how much they remind me of my parents and my upbringing.
I do agree Dylan was given a LOT of freedom. I never had the choice whether or not to sit down for dinner (unless I had an activity at school or something like that) but I also get the vibe that a lot of parents were kind of like Dylan's in my generation. Maybe I'm wrong?
I think you hit the nail on the head with Dylan's parents. I have always been interested in Sue as a person and how she deals with things. She seems very very logical in her reasonings which I think is atypical of most moms or women in general. I wonder how Dylan would have been with a more emotional thinking mother. Would he have felt better or would he have felt smothered?

First and foremost, they were deprived of mental health through abuse. So they needed to receive compensation for it, high quality help in recovery and if any of them was disabled a disability pension more than fully compensating lost income.

Opinions are not irrelevant here. What you are stating is all just your opinion. Your opinion is that what they went thru was abuse. Ok great I get it. I disagree. I do think that both sets of parents ignored what should have been obvious signs that their boys were having some serious issues but I don't think it even comes near to "abuse". You can go on and on and on about what you think, and it is nothing but your opinion.

How I would summarize it: two kids who deicided to take lives as an act of revenge, rage, and emotional damage
I'd say its the event that really started it all if you think about it. Most school shootings were inspired by columbine and the shooters themselves fangirled over the 2 (The first person that comes in mind is Álvaro Castillo).
IMO, its really annoying/cringey how many people call them both heroes or idolize them when they cleary have no clue what happened that day.

I would summarize columbine as a failure (from what they wanted), the bombs didn't detonate, and they missed many oppertuities to have shot many more. They spent most of the time shouting at and Tormenting people, although maybe that is what they wanted to do as well.

It can be a catalyst but the only reason...
This forum is actually one of the most accepting and level headed places to discuss true crime that I’ve found.

Yes. For every martyr there's a thousand of nameless suicides, forgotten, unavenged. For every suicide there's a dozen struggling in poverty due to trauma. Do you think I don't know it? I am one of the latter and I have nothing but gratitude and admiration for the martyrs who laid down their life to make the society's kill-ratio a bit less lopsided.
As for changing the world for better? It can't be done against will of the masses and the society is just inhuman and evil. It loves to punish those who were subjected to psychological liquidation and loves to punish those few who help them.
Do you know for example that most of prostitutes have PTSD and are victims of Child Sexual Abuse? 90% of them wants to quit prostitution but they can't. The treacherous hordes just love when victims of psychological liquidation are struggling in life so that they could degrade and exploit them as "losers".
I already wrote about the perfidious nature of the hordes of evil in the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Like that doctor was working hard to bring awareness of effects of childhood trauma on future health to ensure that victims will get the help they need and her research was just ignored because the privileged hordes with ACE score of 0 to 2 love when victims of psychological liquidation suffer so that they could feel like "winners".

So while Devon and Nate thought of Dylan has their best friends, Dylan had this one track mind to destruction along with Eric

It makes me wonder if, had Eric and Dylan had a greater social circle, the tragedy could have been avoided. Maybe someone could have successfully talked them out of it. Maybe someone could have gotten the authorities to intervene. Maybe they just plain wouldn't have been so focused on their anger and distaste for other people, or even had the same level of anger and distaste to begin with. Instead they were virtually isolated, left to plot and plan together with very few people to distract them.

IDK that Dylan really had it in him to socialize with too many people. While he did have a lot of friends he did seem to gravitate toward one friend at a time. Be that Nate, Zach or Eric.
I do think Eric wanted more friends....or maybe he just wanted a diff set of friends. I get the feeling that the friends he did have were not good enough for him.

I was painfully shy as a kid and only had a few close friends. I was liked in school and all that, I just didn't like socializing - going to big gatherings, joining people for sports, etc. As a result I had what I considered to be "school friends" - people I would talk to in class or maybe occasionally a hangout once in a blue moon. They were basically associates. Other than that there were the handful of close friends, maybe three or four people who I really enjoyed spending close time with on a regular basis. I'd go to their house or they'd come to mine (I often preferred that they come to mine). Hanging out in a group was rare as I often felt self-conscious if it wasn't one-on-one. In my teenage years I became a bit less shy but seemed to become a bit more introverted and came to prefer having just one or two close friends and not much else. I wonder if there was any of that going on with Eric and Dylan.
Having girlfriends helped. I can't imagine how lonely it must have been not to have female companionship all the way to nearly adulthood.

Hence why we need to look at mental health...
While it is easy to compare certain traumas and certain things people have gone through Julie two for us after remember everyone is different. I truly believe looking at this will prove that there is mental health issues coming into playing with the shootings. Because you’re really right, why do have those who have been tortured all their life and have lived in bad conditions not do this but somebody who is depressed and bullied commit a massacre like this?
Though if you look into Brenda Spencer’s childhood she was horribly abused and she was molested. She had to share a bed with her father and her father bought her all the guns she used

Two teenagers decided to blow up their school. Their bombs didn't work, so they shot people instead. The media covered it like a bad rash, therefore shooting up your school became popular.

One hateful, misanthropic teen (Eric Harris), and his best friend, a angry, suicidal, depressive, vengeance against society seeking peer(Dylan Klebold), decide they will carry out an attack to rival the Oklahoma city Bombing on their own high school, hoping for deaths in the hundreds. Then, they hope to escape, and live out the rest of their lives committing more terror attacks and mass murders, all in hopes of becoming the worlds most well known killers.
