Contrary to original press speculation, the killers were not antisocial; nor did they seek out as victims [[Christianity|Christians]] and popular athletes. As evidenced by the propane bombs used in the attacks (capable of killing all 500 people in the cafeteria) the massacre was only for body count: the guns were only a grisly supplement for taking out stragglers. According to eyewitnesses and injured parties, Harris and Klebold shot indiscriminately, often not even looking to who they were shooting.  The killers were [[Darwinists]]; they admired [[Charles Darwin]]'s theory of [[natural selection]]. The killers planned their attack beforehand and investigators later found descriptions in their notes about their intentions to kill. One of the murders wore a T-shirt displaying the text "NATURAL SELECTION" on the day of the massacre. However, it is also worth noting that Harris wrote many essays describing his ideal world where ALL humans are extinct: he had a great disdain for humanity as a whole.<ref>http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/salon.htm</ref><ref>Columbine (Dave Cullen)</ref>
