More on adult stupidity in Columbine

The two students who gunned down 12 classmates and a teacher at Columbine High School bragged about making pipe bombs and said they were looking for a ‘ground zero’ two years before the bloodbath — and authorities knew it, the sheriff said Wednesday. Authorities have said they knew about violent rants by Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold in 1998, a year before the shootings, and that a search warrant was not acted upon. But Jefferson county Sheriff Ted Mink, who took office in July, said Wednesday that someone had called the sheriff’s office a year earlier, in 1997, to tip off authorities about a Web site run by Harris.” (10/29/03)
