Tour Of Columbine High School Shortly After the Massacre

I don't know if this has been posted before but I found Police investigation footage of the School:

One thing I've always wondered about is why they didn't shoot up the sign that says "Through these halls pass the finest kids in America, The students of Columbine High School". Given their hatred of the school, they must've perceived that sign as hypocritical.

Probably never occurred to them. I think they were more interested in shooting people.

OR

They assumed it would go up with the schools if/when the bombs went off, so they didn't bother with it.

Why do you think it's in the video? Is there not a scorch mark on "finest"? I figured they shot or threw a pipe bomb at it, or maybe both as in tossing a bomb into the air and shooting at it.

This has to be three days after the massacre, considering the windows of the west entrance were boarded up and the absence of the bodies. Hmm...

I wonder why they don't let people tour the school in the Summer when it's closed? I understand it being disrespectful to the victims of the families, but it's also a part of history. If they were to let people tour it, who would get the money off the tour prices? The school district or the state?

They did. Many families of the victims toured the library and school over the summer.
Turning a massacre into a public tour for money is not only disrespectful, but would make no logical sense and cause extreme backlash from the community.

Interesting thought!! It seems even more eerie now thinking about it being so soon after the murders.

I know, right? Maybe put a hotdog stand in there as well.

Bruh.

Maybe in a few years we'll get the victim crime scene photos released, like the black dahlia stuff etc.
