Dylan had on his coat and those glasses. And as Sue looked around the restaurant she thought people were uncomfortable and were afraid of him, so she said: “Dylan, people are afraid of you with that on, you need to take it off” and he just smiled at her. I think when he got that coat it’s the first time he ever felt power in his life.

Dylan found Evan Todd hiding under the main counter in the library. Dylan said Todd had previously called him a “fag.” Upon finding Todd ,Dylan was fuming with anger and revenge. I can imagine Dylan was exhibiting the (above) facial expression as he yelled at Todd : “ GIVE ME ONE REASON WHY I SHOULDN’T KILL YOU! “ 

Todd described Dylan’s expression as demonic looking.

To help them through the bad days, Tom and Sue Klebold receive counseling from two members of St. Philip Lutheran Church every other day, said the Rev. Don Marxhausen.

“Some days, the profundity of the loss of a child is deeper than other days,” Marxhausen said. "When you go through grief,…

Dylan/Green and Charles Manson – Part 3

Apart from his paper on Manson, Dylan’s behavior suggest that he was deliberately following in the footsteps of Manson and his family.  Besides Eric and Dylan’s well-known nicknames (VoDka and REB), the boys had other nicknames they apparently only used between themselves.  Dylan was “Green” and Eric was “Indigo.”  In the 1970s, Manson created the Order of the Rainbow and assigned his core followers nicknames: Squeaky Fromme was Red, Sandra Good was Blue, Susan Atkins was Violet, Leslie Van Houten was Green, Patricia Krenwinkle was Yellow, and Nancy Pitman was Gold.  It appears that Eric and Dylan copied the Order of the Rainbow.

Various forms of the word “pig” were favorite terms of Manson and his family.  At one murder site, the followers wrote “Political Piggy.”  At another, they wrote the word “Pig.”  At the third, “Death to Pigs.”   Each time the words were written in the victim’s blood.  On the same page of Eric’s yearbook where Dylan addressed Eric as Indigo and signed himself as Green, he wrote about looking forward to killing “pigs” and a “piglet.”  Dylan also used the word “piggies” in a short story about the mass murder of students he wrote foTr school several weeks before the attack. The most obvious imitation of Manson’s followers occurred when Dylan spray-painted “Death to Pigs” on a pawnshop.

Finally, Manson and his followers referred repeatedly to a coming “judgment day,” which apparently was going to be a day of mass murder.  On the morning of April 20, 1999, Eric filmed Dylan saying, “Hey Mom, I gotta go.  It’s about a half hour till judgment day.”

Perhaps once again Dylan was following in the footsteps of Manson and his family. 

Dylan not only surrendered his identity to the influence of Eric Harris to become a pseudopsychopath, but was also shaped by what he read about Manson.  Dylan’s comments in his journal about death can be seen in a new light when read alongside his paper on Manson.  In addition, his use of terminology adopted from Manson’s family suggests he used them as models.

Thanks to Rebdomine for pointing this out:
indigo and green is a DOOM reference not freaking Manson!
It makes all the more sense for the double meaning.

Dylan wrote in his diversion file that his parents punished him when he did something they did not approve.

He went on by stating that the types of punishment he received included grounding and loss of privileges.

He wrote what happened during he had a conflict with his family members: ”just yelling and possible consequences if I broke a rule”.

He mentioned that a conflict is over when they were aware of each other’s arguments and understand them.”

Relatively into Dylan statements, his parents seemed to be more precise. They wrote down the reasons why Dylan got punished: ”disrespect, failure to do what been asked(?)”. They said that the type of punishment that Dylan received were ”grounding” , ”loss of privileges” but also ”additional chores”.

During an argument they wrote they had” a loud but controlled discussion”(?)

The conflict is over when they ”communicate and spend time together’/

In addtion, they mentioned they had had an episodic financial difficulties over last 10 years.”

Parents statement in Dylan diversion file:

”Dylan is introverted and he has grown up insolated from those who are different in age, culture(? correct here if you understand please) or other factors. He is often angry or sullen and behaviour seems disrespectful and intolerant of others”

His parents checked the problems Dylan might have had at that time: Anger, authority figure, jobs and loneliness while Dylan checked only two: finances and jobs.

He simply explained his problems by stating: ”Kind of diffcult to find a technician job when I am only 16 years old.”
