Columbine yearbook class of 1999

The class yearbook of 1999 was published on may 22 1999. It features the Columbine class of 1999 including Eric Harris and Dylan klebold.

Some people criticised that they were left in the yearbook, but they had removed certain pages which gave information about them as shown below. There is at least one known page featuring Eric Harris which had been removed. This was apart of the 1st edition yearbook, which was not given to any students or printed. Nathan Dykeman mentions Eric and Dylan in quote which reads “ High school has been the best of times and the worst of times, but through it all two guys have been with me. Thanks for the memories and everlasting friendship Dylan and Eric.”

The Culture in Morality: Dylan Klebold Journal Analysis, 2.

Below is a quote from Dylan's journal that stands out to me. The first part: the evidence of desperation to cleanse impurities. With this, I can garner that Dylan seems to have a deluded sense of morality. Second: It looks like he is trying to blend in with the general population. It’s not only him who thinks this way, so do other individuals. It’s as if he is trying to attain unity or solidarity from the act of “cleansing himself morally”. Moreso, attempting to be "human". 

Humanity: Ethics and Morality

According to Emile Durkheim, one of the founding fathers of sociology, morality reflects the organization of society and binds it together. It serves as an agent that bridges the divide between individuals. Morality, in essence, consists of principles distinguishing between good and bad.

Charles Darwin’s "The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex," published in 1871, asserts:

“I fully subscribe to the judgment of those writers who maintain that of all the differences between man and the lower animals the moral sense or conscience is by far the most important.”

Since then, an influx of questions has arisen regarding the relative importance of culture and biology in determining morality. Whether the moral sense is derived from either of two aspects:

the moral rules humans accept as behavioral guides (assessing right or wrong); or

the biological basis of ethics (consciousness of actions and consequences)

Ethics has an established difference from morality. It is the notion of doing a rather practical or pragmatic action, while morality is the idea of being driven to do good. An ethical code does not have to be moral to be justified, but must be feasible or convenient. This means that as long as an idea is practical, whether it is considered to be good or bad, it is ethical.

In an essay by Francisco J. Ayala titled "The Difference of Being Human: Morality," he proposes that the capacity for ethics is a necessary attribute of human nature, while moral codes are products of cultural evolution. Ethical behavior is a byproduct of man's intellectual prowess—a nurtured quality fostered by natural selection. Morality did not emerge as an adaptation but as an exaptation, developing into a function different from its original purpose. This is explained by the presence of three biological conditions for ethical behavior that allow humans to have a moral sense: ability to anticipate the consequences of one’s actions, to make value judgments, and to choose between alternative courses of action.

Moral codes, compared to Ethical codes, are outcomes of cultural evolution, accounting for the diversity of cultural norms among populations and their evolution over time. People accept standards according to which their conduct is judged as either right or wrong, good or evil. These norms vary, however, some norms, such as do not kill, are widespread and perhaps universal. This explanation suggests that while it is inherent to be ethical, morality arises from cultural and sociological factors created out of normative behavior. From this, we can assert that humans all inherently have the ethics that guide them throughout their lives. What makes them interconnected however is the presence of morality that acts as a framework to keep them bonded together and functioning.

Moral Exclusion

With that, it is easy to say that humans are human because of biological factors that distinguish them from the animalia kingdom. However, we can also observe that humans also deny others of the capability of being human even if we are from the same species. Time and time again, we can observe that humans are susceptible to dehumanizing others. So really, why is that?

Most cases, we confer personhood upon each other when we criticize others using a sort of check-list: morality. It is technically a learned culture that allows us to be bonded together and function as an entire whole. What I do, you do, and vice-versa. However, not always can it unite us because other times it can also alienate others. Sometimes, distorting morality itself by using it as a tool to exclude those who do not fit into certain categories of moral preference.

Since it is a culture that evolves through time, there are aspects of it that are different from individual to individual and culture to culture. This means that what can be bad can also be good to others and vice-versa. Not everything is in one standard that's applicable to all because not everything is practical for everyone. Ethically speaking, when we acknowledge other people’s complexities outside the standard black-and-white "good or bad " spectrum, we feel more connected. We realize that we are human because we have the ability to rationalize and do what is pragmatic.

Dylan’s Difference and Indifference

Dylan believed he was outside the norm, devoid of humanity, and different from everyone else. He was ethical in the sense that he understood the consequences of his actions and could make determinations about them. He knew the consequences of taking lives and taking his own life. With this, it is already enough to consider him as human. He could rationalize, therefore he is human.

One of the reasons why he does not feel that he is human is because he lacks the connection others have. Morality being a culture has brought people together and as I have previously stated, also excludes others. I believe that he subscribed to the belief that to be human, one must be moral so they could fit in with society. This creates an internal conflict. Humans are no strangers to latching unto vices because to them, it is pragmatic. We smoke, we drink, and we do things others consider immoral because we think it helps us.

With morality, a tangible framework is provided for achieving a purpose. It is an established system that offers a good reason to quit vices in exchange for acceptance. Dylan sees this difference as a weapon hindering him from being included. He acts like others to be accepted and, supposedly, be happy with this acceptance.

Of course people in the true crime community aren't going to like a book that doesn't sympathize with the shooters.

uh, no, actually! this isnt the case :o)

the book isnt very accurate in the way it tells the story - it gets a lot of details wrong in general about what really happened. it also gets details wrong about dylan and eric which is not good for a book thats literally about what they did.

theres also a LOT of grammar and spelling errors that werent fixed

(take a shot every time he uses but to start a sentence and says “homed” instead of “honed”)

its not about sympathizing. i dont care if someone sympathizes with them or not, but its more so about the fact that its a book about something so important and big yet its taken care of in the worst way.

actually! if it were about me sympathizing then i WOULD like the book. dylans my favorite out of the two and hes described in a way that is for sympathizing (as well as eric) so thats seriously not the issue

edit: direct quote from the book “dylan klebold was meek, self conscious, and authentically shy. he couldnt even speak to a stranger, especially a girl.” see how easy that is to sympathize with? sympathy isnt the issue

(before anyone asks - i find it easy to sympathize with murderers and shooters BUT i do NOT condone their actions)

((its actually a lot weirder if you CANT sympathize! me and my therapist had a whole discussion about how if you cant have empathy even for something like this it says a lot about you as a person))

So I’m watching this German documentary about the columbine shooting and holy shit it’s so inaccurate. Wrong facts, inaccurate facts, false accusements and much more. At first they didn’t even name Eric and Dylan, translations are inaccurate and emergency calls were faked. The originals weren’t even shown. There wasn’t one word about the basement tapes and the diary entries of Eric’s were also translated inaccurately. They should’ve just shown hour zero with German translations and it would’ve been okay. But no. They choose to make up stuff and fake facts. Way to go Germany.
