The Columbine attack occurred because two disturbed young men found each other and combined their psychological flaws to hatch a grandiose plan to destroy as many people as they could. They spent a year planning, practicing, and obtaining the equipment and materials that they needed to pull it off. Fortunately, much of their plan did not work. Only one of their bombs went off and only after they fired bullets into it. It started a fire that was put out by the school sprinkler system. None of the pipe bombs they brought actually detonated. They tragically shot and killed 13 people, in addition to themselves, but had planned to kill many more.

Did video games had anything to do with the columbine shootings?
No, the combination of personalities of the boys allowed the Columbine tragedy occur. Without a Harris, Klebold was a typical underachieving, depressed teen who hated and blamed himself more than he hated or blamed others. Without Klebold, Harris was a psychopath who would have eventually, on his own, wreaked havoc on the world he hated and the stupid, worthless people who inhabited it; he enjoyed hating, he enjoyed demeaning, and he enjoyed the idea of inflicting pain and suffering on others. Harris was also an adept liar. His friends and classmates reported that he lied about anything and everything. He enjoyed lying as much as he enjoyed hating and knew that it gave him an advantage. Authorities have gained a lot of insight into these personalities since their deaths because they not only left behind their websites and videos, but also journals chronicling their true feelings.
