Atheism is often blamed for these kid's idiocy. Atheism doesn't cause evil, kids, only fools and hateful people.

The killers were anti-religion, anti-establishment, antisocial, and anti-gun control; they sought out as victims [[Christianity|Christians]], [[Americans]], and popular athletes. The killers planned their attack beforehand and investigators later found descriptions in their notes about their intentions to kill.  
    
Politicians cited the massacre in their demands for greater [[gun control]], and congressional [[Democratic Party|Democrats]] held highly publicized hearings to pass gun control legislation. But gun control became an issue that hurt liberal Democratic presidential candidate [[Al Gore]] in 2000, causing him to lose the election by losing the traditionally Democratic state of West Virginia, where the right to bear arms is valued. Since the 2000 election there have not been any significant political demands for gun control. [[Liberal]] [[Socialism|socialist]] filmmaker [[Michael Moore]] used the incident as the backdrop for an anti-gun rights propaganda piece, ''Bowling For Columbine''.
