The determined will find a way. How about pulling a fire alarm and then
running over the student body while they cluster about on the school lawn?
I can only guess at the body count from that one. And the plan that these
idiots executed was far from simple. And they had bombs. They possibly
could have pulled off an Oklahoma City-type bombing. Who knows exactly what
these guys were capable of. (Their probation officer indicated they were
bright and had promise - would likely succeed...)
I don't deny that firearms contribute to this problem. (Perhaps it's the
glorificaiton of firearms...) But eliminating firearms, if even possible,
will not solve the problem of homicidal kids.
Does Moscow Public Library have the Anarchist's Cookbook? Boise Public had
two copies, which were very often requested by kids.
