The documentary “The Columbine Cause” by Evan Long explores the unanswered questions and unaddressed issues surrounding the infamous school shooting at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999. The film raises valid concerns about the official narrative of the event, which has been accepted and regurgitated by the corporate and state media.
One of the key issues raised by the documentary is the count of ballistics evidence charts, which yield totals far greater than the three hundred shots officially stated by law enforcement officials to have been fired. This discrepancy raises questions about the accuracy and transparency of the investigation into the shooting.
Additionally, the film highlights the reports of students and teachers inside the school during the attack, who described up to a dozen distinct shooters. Some of them were able to identify the shooters by name as neither Eric Harris nor Dylan Klebold, the two students officially blamed for the attack. These reports suggest that there may have been other individuals involved in the shooting, yet this possibility has not been fully explored or acknowledged by the media or authorities.
Another issue brought up by the documentary is the fact that some Columbine students knew about the attack up to two years in advance. This raises questions about why the event was described as a “wake-up call” when it may have been more accurately characterized as “the big rumor.” These discrepancies between the official narrative and the experiences of those who were present at the time of the shooting suggest that there may be more to the story of Columbine than has been widely reported.
Overall, “The Columbine Cause” provides a thought-provoking and insightful look into the tragedy that occurred at Columbine High School. By questioning the official narrative and raising important concerns about the investigation, the film encourages viewers to think critically about the events of that day and to consider the possibility that there may be more to the story than we have been led to believe.
