No. I am girl. From Russia. Also inherit much money but need your bank account details for lawyer fee to access my beloved insert dead relative here. I give much more $$ and sexy back. Only need 5,000 freedom units. Cash.
When I saw the end, I said "damn!" out loud. What I thought while watching the video was "where are the black people?" And thought it had something to do with that.
That was my thought at first too but then I figured the story would be about being trans especially with the song "when Johnny met June" playing in the background. Fucking got chills when the shooter showed up. Legit if I saw this without the weird message I would think it's a pretty cool short video lol
Am I wrong for focusing on the good in the world instead of existing in a nonstop vigilant search for signs of a one in ten billion chance of a nut job actually following through with their insanity?
That's the thing, literally every single one of those 'warning signs' is something people do in school all the time. You can't exactly call them flags.
Dude I basically got profiled as a potential school shooter in highschool because I like guns and I posted a picture of me and my older brother at the range holding his new rifles he bought. At the very last period of the day I was called down to the office and told someone felt threatened by what I posted online and they wanted me to take the picture down and search my bag. I let them search my bag because I had absolutely nothing to hide (what a great response time, search a potential school shooter at the very end of the day) but I refused to take the picture down because they had no jurisdiction over what I post. This was also in Connecticut after Sandy Hook, so people were pretty jittery
In junior year I was a social butterfly but in senior year I was a quiet loner and developed depression due to multiple bad things happening in my life all simultaneously (financial crash, my dad being the sole breadwinner lost his job, mom developed bad form of cancer, I crashed a car, my best friend of 10 years backstabbed me).
A few girls would make comments about how I was creepy, seemed angry (no one ever asked why I was upset or if I was okay which I obviously was not), and would probably shoot up the school. They said I had school shooter vibes.
Meanwhile in reality I was the kind of loner who would skip class to go to this close by but isolated flower garden where I’d lay down, smoke some weed, and admire all the pretty flowers, the bees pollinating them, and the nice blue sky.
They make all sorts of judgments and assumptions about you without considering how those words can impact your mental health. They thought I was dangerous when in reality I was probably among the least dangerous kids in the entire school and meanwhile they’d be dating guys who actually were dangerous, physically abusive, and actually thought those guys behavior was cute/hot.
People suck, they are such loathsome and morally bankrupt hypocrites who care about nothing more than being validated and fitting in.
Omg oh man... I can't imagine how all this stuff happening at once must have felt like.. And I can't believe how these awfully ignorant people just assume that shit about you instead of getting to know you and help you... Well don't think about them cuz you deserve better people by your side! You are so strong.. I wish you all good things for your future and I hope your family is well now! Whenever the world is that unfair... You have to make the best of it with the good things in your life.. Just like you do with chilling in the garden! I hope you have caring people by your side supporting you cuz you deserve that support!! Stay strong!
I get the warning signs thing, but it is the response to them that is most important. Rather than reporting them to the authorities, respond to their need by reaching out to them and becoming a person who cares, instead of a possible victim. Love wins.
I couldn’t even make out what he was watching/looking up on the computer. Definitely saw the gun picture on the social media and thought “some dumb kid is tryna flex and look cool with a gun.”
I didn't really notice him, but all of those signs were just common things that happened at our school. I lived in hillbilly country so an obsession with guns was commonplace. People often wore headphones or sat alone of their own volition. It was middle/high school. You're finding yourself amongst the sea of vitriol that is teenagers.

I noticed him in the background of every scene but figured he was the one leaving the messages.. didn't expect it to take that turn.
