Chronology
At 11:10 am on Tuesday, April 20, 1999, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold arrive at Columbine High School in two different cars. They park in two different car parks on non-reserved sites. They equip themselves and join soon after. While Eric unloads the sports bags from his car, a student, Brooks Brown, who was the source of the Harris complaint following death threats, spots Eric Harris and tries to chat with him. . Eric says, "Brooks, I like you now. Get out of here. Go home.
Eric and Dylan are posted in two strategic points offering a good view of the university cafeteria and controlling the two main outings.
At 11:14 am, a bomb placed in a field 800 m from the school exploded as planned. The goal was to create a diversion and mobilize firefighters and police at this time. Firefighters quickly manage to extinguish the fire created by the explosion. Harris and Klebold then enter the institution's cafeteria to place two 9-kg propane tanks, each supposedly exploding at 11:17 am.
The cafeteria surveillance video did not record that moment operator is now changing the band. Once the charges, concealed in large bags, placed, Harris and Klebold stand out and resume their respective places near their cars. The explosives are powerful enough to destroy the cafeteria, or even to collapse the library on the first floor. Harris and Klebold plan to keep the outings to eliminate the surviving students who try to escape.
At 11:17 am, the bombs in the cafeteria had not exploded, so Harris and Klebold got into their cars to dress in black coats and collect their assault rifles. They then head for the stairs to the west entrance which is the highest point of the campus.
At 11:19, a witness heard Eric Harris shout "Go! Go! ". The two teenagers open fire and shoot at Rachel Scott and Richard Castaldo, who are having lunch sitting on a grassy mound next to the west entrance to the school. Scott is killed, Castaldo is seriously injured. Nobody knows who started shooting or who killed Scott. Eric then removes his coat, pulls out his 9 mm semi-automatic and fires a group of three students towards the west staircase.
Then they shoot at students sitting in the grass to the south.
Klebold then descends the stairs towards the cafeteria, he pulls one more time on a student seriously wounding him. He then goes to another student who crawls down the stairs and shoots him in the back at close range, killing him. He then goes to the cafeteria, certainly to see why the propane bombs did not explode. Meanwhile, Harris shoots several students trying to escape. After a few seconds, Klebold goes up the stairs and rejoins Harris.
A visual arts teacher, Patti Nielson, thinking that Harris and Klebold were shooting an amateur video, walks over to them with a student and challenges them to stop them. Harris pulls in the direction of Patti Nielson, who is injured by shards of glass, she manages to take refuge in the library, where she manages to police the police.
At 11:24, a first police officer quickly arrives at the scene and fires with Harris and Klebold. The alert is then given and the authorities, although outdated as shown by the recordings of their radio exchanges, know that a shooting was underway in Columbine High School. When the officer runs out of ammo, Harris and Klebold enter the school and head to the cafeteria as they cross the corridors, shooting at those they meet without distinction. They kill a student who was trying to warn others in the library.
At 11:29, the two students enter the library where 52 students and 2 teachers, including teacher Patti Nielson, are hiding under the tables. Harris yells "Get up! ".
The two students shoot at the students hidden under the tables, chat with some of them before slaughtering them or letting them go like John Savage, a friend of Dylan, whom he shouts to leave or Cassie Bernall to whom Eric would have asked: "Do you believe in God?", The girl would then have answered that she believed in it. Eric then shoots, killing her instantly; the recoil of the weapon breaks his nose. They commit in this place the greatest number of victims: 10 students perish in 7 minutes.
They also launch several bombs, although many of them are not functional. They then evoke the idea of starting to stab students to pigmenter things.
At 11:42, the two students left the library, probably because of Harris's bleeding nose, ending the massacre. They go to the cafeteria they vandalize and wander the corridors of the establishment, terrorizing students hidden in their classrooms or toilets by threatening them with death but without using their weapons again.
At 12.00, the two murderers then return to the library where all the victims, except two wounded, fled. After a few exchanging shots with the police outside, they committed suicide at 12:08 with a pistol bullet in the head for Klebold and a shotgun bullet in the mouth for Harris.
Two intervention teams enter the school at 1:09 pm; they move from class to class, discovering hidden students and teachers. All students, teachers, and school staff were taken out, interrogated, and treated before being transferred by bus. The police found the bodies of the library at 3:30 pm
At 4:00 pm, the sheriff made an initial estimate of 25 dead students and teachers. At 4:30 pm the school was declared safe. However, at 5:30 pm, additional officers were called because explosives were found in Klebold's car in the parking lot. The sheriff decided to place the whole school as a crime scene. Thirteen dead, including the shooters, were still inside the school.
At 10:45 pm, the car bomb exploded when a policeman tried to defuse it. The car was damaged, but nobody was hurt.
How awful !! How teenagers can kill young students in cold blood without any compassion. It's cold in the back !!
When a human is killed whole humanity dies.. it so sad to see the state of human thinking where it has reached. This is utterly disgrace to whole human faternity. We should always stand together in these moments of tragedy and grief. Never ever blame a particular belief or community for the act done by a person who no longer has humanity alive in his conscious. No parent will want his din to do this act. Even how bad they are, everyone want their miss to be the best ones' . Its just unfortunate some get misled, and in their dress we as collective conscious of society are also responsible because we sometimes make it so tough for an individual to survive that in fir of that moment he gets carried away with his state of mind. stay together we can only survive than as humans
oh god help
I read the news today about what happened, it's a terrible tragedy.
America unfortunately not for the first time suffers from such actions of inadequate people. It is difficult to imagine what is happening in the head of this person who cold-bloodedly kills students.
The main problem is the general availability of firearms. Practice shows that this is unacceptable.
Condolences to the families of the deceasedHi @lndesta120282
Important question I wish you would have addressed in your very well written post.
Was the cause of this:
...because anti-gun groups like to believe that the gun used was the cause of this and not the person.
What do you think?
I think it's the gun and the man with psychological problems
It takes trouble for dead people. They should not be like them,
The boy is very bad .The big problem is the general availability of firearms .The family of the dead is in trouble. If such incident does not happen, then the police will have to take action.

I always Expecting such type of informative post on your blog. Which will be helpful for me.Hey, @lndesta120282 !!! Nice Post.
Precisely when a human is butchered entire mankind kicks the bowl.. it so disastrous to see the condition of human reasoning where it has come to. This is absolutely disfavoring to the entire human partnership. We ought to always stand together in these portrayals of disaster and miserable. Allah bolsters us and give us more conviction and essentialness to love u and your family with parallel heart and energy. It is hard to envision what is going on in the pioneer of this individual who determinedly butchers understudies.
oh god!please save us.thank you for sharing us of your nice information
VERY VERY VERY WELL SAID
As a wise man once said, "This is Florida. Everything is a licensed gun range." In all seriousness this is disgusting and almost as terrible, if not worse than Columbine if anyone remembers that. And to think that gun laws have not changed at all in NINETEEN years since that shooting is infuriating. And they won't because people can't let go of their petty toys that they don't even use for protection anyway; that's just an excuse to have it because it's a hobby. I am tired of shootings and to think that it won't ever end until the universe disintegrates is exhausting to know.
I am not able to imagine how people are able to do such things, killing 17 people its out of my senses.
I'm really very sorry for this too
@indesta, Terrible destiny for all those people who did not ask for anything. I do not really understand these murderous follies, how can we attack the lives of others. Why, too, do these young people act? We know that the US is still in favor of weapons but given what happens I can not understand why there are not more controls. At the same time, in today's society, you can find everything, buy everything. From there to feeling invincible for a moment I do not know if this is what drives young people to commit such acts ... All my thoughts to the families of the victims.
The US political system is broken, it is incapable of acting in the interests of the common people that it serves as it is owned by corporations who "donate" also known as "bribe" the politicians to vote how they want. This in turn causes a paralyzed system that only exists to serve the corporations.
In order for there to be seriously needed gun reform, it would take practically an act of God at this point as many will not budge from the 2nd amendment rights to own guns and believe they should own whatever they want including machine guns.
In order for this to stop, the individual states have to vote to have a constitutional convention, so they can amend the US Constitution. Obviously, with the National Rifle Association political group having so much power and paying off the politicians, this will not happen.
I am a natural born American who has lived here my entire life. I have visited other countries, and traveled across almost the entire US, which is huge compared to many countries! But I am beginning to want to leave. I don't want my children to fear being shot while attending school. I want them to worry about boy things like girls, cars, skateboards, and athletics like football.
This needs to stop, but I don't believe it will until it is too late. Many decades will have to pass before the US becomes educated enough to realize this problem.
I hope this gives you some insight to our nation and why it is so sick. Those with the most money won't let it heal because they make the most money from this. They profit from the deaths of others.
Iam INDIAN. Every time we hear about shooting in the U.S. We always hear about thoughts and prayers go out to all affacted. While my thoughts go out as well, when is the issue of gun control ever going to come up.. And get something done. Words are not enough!
Sad!@indesta120282
Time to think on gun law.. Prayers and thoughts for all affacted.. Get well soon
I as the world community also sorrow for the incident, and hopefully all revealed clearly.
this makes me wonder how futher low will humanity stoop down to ...that is heart breaking ...condemn it strongly ...our society needs to grow some more brains and some more emotions ...be considerative towards the emotions of other people ...hope such incidents are not repeated in future
this is so uncertain
