Columbine-obsessed girls draw up hit list of 90 students
TWO New York schoolgirls allegedly obsessed with the Columbine massacre were suspended from school after teachers discovered they wrote a hit list of 90 students.

The girls claim that bullying led them to make the list, which included 86 students from Plattsburgh High School and the rest from another school.

The school notified the parents of all children whose names were on the list and was still deciding how long the two girls should remain suspended.

Plattsburgh School District Superintendent James Short said of one of the girls who compiled the list "feels like she has been picked on and marginalized by other kids, and while she's feeling this, she has this fascination with that's what occurred in Columbine”.

Just....wow. It's sad that some people are so tormented that they feel the need to take it out on others.

2. maybe
Not a lawyer, just imnho. If it is just a list with 90 names on it, maybe not. If it is a list titled "I'm going to kill these people" maybe so.

4. No pity. If you make a list of students you are planning to kill...
... you should be expelled.

5. Yeah, you should be smart enough to make up code names for everyone.
Just kidding...
