5 Kansas teens were arrested for planning to shoot several students and faculty members at Riverton High School. The shooting was supposed to take place yesterday, April 20, Adolf Hitler's birthday, as well as the anniversary of the Columbine shootings. The only difference, and why they got caught: Myspace.
The online web community that has been taking over youth all around the world was the teens way of communicating their plans to each other, and also for sending threatening messages. i believe that myspace, tho failing to moniter the content of the messages they sent, was helpful in catching these kids before they carried out their plan.
Riverton is a small town, even smaller than mine, which we'll call, "Inthemiddleofnowhereville".
At my school, the goth movement has been growing. every corner has turned into a darkened mass of tear stained faces covered with makeup. Most of them seem to hate the world, our school, and anyone who isn't just like them. They're all misunderstood and want to die. or so they say. i think most of it is made up to follow what is becoming "the in crowd". It makes me nervous to know there are so many kids at my school who'd have the guts to pull another shooting. i hope that never happens, and i always convinced myself it wouldn't because we're such a small town, but we're a city compared to Riverton.
so we'll see what happens. I hope those guys are punished as adults, because they're all old enough to know right from wrong.
