I Have Spent Over A Year Lurking In The Columbine Tag And Related Fandoms-Here's What I Saw
1: Insults aimed at a fifteen-year-old child who took her own life.
2: Jokes made at the expense of Craig Scott.
3: A pair of girls visiting the site of the Sandy Hook shooting, in the middle of the night, without proper authorisation, and taking selfies there.
4: More jokes, made about the victims of Sandy Hook.
5: Endless protestations that Eric and Dylan were victims too.
6: Harassment of Dave Cullen on Twitter, whose only crime was to write a book which didn’t paint the shooters in a forgiving or positive light.
#7: Making light of an incident in which Brooks Brown, a former friend of the killers, propositioned an underage girl on this very website.
8: Memes made about the Colorado theatre shooting, e.g. THE PEOPLE IN COLORADO PAID FOR A FULL MOVIE, BUT THEY ONLY GOT A FEW CLIPS.
9: Rampant cyberbullying, allegedly perpetuated by a woman married with children, directed at a schoolgirl.
10: A toxic general online environment, where suicide is, at best, treated as a viable option.
11: A fanfiction wherein Eric Harris molests a ten-year-old James Holmes. (It also had a sequel.)
11b: A fanfiction wherein Eric Harris rapes his grandfather.
11c: A fanfiction in which Harris and Klebold, aged thirteen apiece, participate in distinctly adult foreplay.
11d: A fanfiction in which Eric Harris is raped by an army sergeant.
11e: An online fanvid, made with Sim avatars, in which Dave Cullen is stated to be sleeping with the seventeen-year-old Dylan Klebold.
11f: A fanfiction (which was later find-replaced to remove any Columbine connotations and can be bought on Amazon) which depicts an abusive relationship between Harris and Klebold and tries to pass it off as true love.
12: A woman seen on a community video, holding up her hand to the camera to show the loveheart doodled there and saying, “I’m forty-six….and I love you!” It’s unclear whether she’s addressing Harris (eighteen) or Klebold (seventeen).
13: A real-life incident in which a fully-fledged Columbiner named James Gamble, who took his own life to avoid going through with a Columbine-inspired attack in Nova Scotia.
14: A few Tumblr blogs, which appear to be run by middle-aged women, extolling unhealthy sexual thoughts and feeling towards Harris (eighteen) and Klebold (seventeen).
There will be more. There will always be more. This community is by far the worst that I have ever seen on the surface web. If you need links, please message me and I’ll tell you which blogs to visit.
