Wrong question I think. He was headed for this, and the question is, what was there to stop him?
yes i guess so. i just read his entries and for today and it just didn't sound like anything unusual. you would think there would be a lot of i hate the world blah blah blah but he only complained about his contact lenses. :-/ weird. (duh)
Exactly. These Goth kids got the way they are because they had no parental support and love.
Truth be told, they showed up in middle school (perhaps the toughest time in life for all of us), never got the attention of the guy/girl they wanted, were rejected by peers that they wanted, and so they rebelled. The only commonality that they shared was the creation of an opposition to everything.
They're all still stuck in middle school, as this guy vividly displays. No maturity. Just the talk of death and a hatred for humanity.
Just people who never found much of anything to live for and without the self-confidence or will-power and vision to be their own individual.
It's sad, really. Shame that there is this culture that has been able to sprout up and suck them in via the internet and stores like Hot Topic (coming to a mall near you...).
