Students have described Lane as an "outcast" who had been bullied and said he had posted warnings on Twitter and left disturbing messages on Facebook."
And no one did FA about the bullying and now the response will be to identify and persecute bullied kids instead of going after the morons who think it's just swell fun to torture someone else.

He was not a student at that school. Kids were waiting there in the cafeteria for their bus to take them to a school 15 minutes away.
Also, according to his friends, he was a quiet kid, who hardly ever spoke about his home situation. Turns out he lived with his grandparents, his father had been in jail before for attacks on his significant other (the kids mom and his gf), and was an overall nice, but quiet kid. His friends did not expect this, no one did.

If you read the story you'll note that several people say that he was.

I don't go about just one story. I have my TV on and follow the news. The story also says there is just one dead. There are 3.

That story implies the kids was a student at the school...
And other stories on the same site make it pretty clear that he was a student at the school.
In a perverse way the logic of such shooters makes sense:
If no one cares about the bullying then everyone is responsible for it.
Thus an apparently 'random' shooting isn't actually all that random after all.
The kid did his shooting 'randomly' but reports are saying the kid was bullied and, given past history, this was his way of 'hitting back'.

The press conference that was given right after the indictment, and the statements of his friends, suggest the complete opposite.
I'm sure he snapped somehow, and I am more sure he was pretty traumatized by his home situation. Something his friends say too. But from what I heard, no one could have prevented this.
Kleibold and Harris were just a couple of demented and murderous assholes. It certainly wasn't a case of victims of bullies taking revenge.
Pardon the gentle correction...

With these two the bullying just got them started on their trip into oblivion. I agree with you that in the end they were just murderous a-holes. Still, what got them started was that they were bullied by jocks and, naturally, that was ignored by faculty because jocks get to do all sorts of crap and dismiss it as 'good fun'.
But from what I heard, no one could have prevented this.
Too bad he wasn't homeschooled.

Really? Wow.
By whom, his addicted father? His absent mother?
I'm assuming (WILD guess from a couch/internet shrink) he would have gone to a mall and randomly shoot people. When someone snaps, they snap.
