I don't like the idea of belaboring a point. However, in this case, I think the message is "what can we learn to make our schools safer?" As an educator, I have seen a shift in how we respond to bullying as a result of Columbine. It may be a little overboard -- at the same time it is necessary to learn from our mistakes. Not responding to the Columbine students the way we should have is a tragedy. Not learning from the situation would be even worse. We cannot pretend this didn't happen -- any more than we can pretend the concentration camps didn't exist. History gives us the chance to learn.
