Would it have been possible to befriend Eric and Dylan? Why or why not?

Definitely not. Dylan and Eric had to be very secretive about their plan, which meant that any interaction they had with anyone else was fake. You wouldn't be befriending them, you'd be befriending their facade.

Exactly, didn't Dylan make plans with friends after 4/20? Knowing he would already be dead?

Yes with Devon on that Wednesday and I think they were supposed to go to a concert that summer.

I think there was also a gifted kids reunion that he said he’d bring pizza to


Then the biggie.... going to Arizona and picking out a freaking dorm room with his dad...

That still boggles my mind but they both were smart in that way, act normal to everyone else around them to keep them from being suspicious something was up. I think Eric dodged a bullet with threatening brooks on his site though, his parents went to the police and they could of possibly found his weapons and confiscate them

A typo and a cop who didn't know how to use the internet was his saving grace. The cop had written down the wrong web address and didn't know how to find Eric's website. Dang lucky
