Twin in suicide pact wrote to Columbine survivor

DENVER – One of the Australian twin sisters who shot themselves in a suicide pact at a Colorado shooting range wrote several letters to a survivor of the Columbine school shooting in the months after the tragedy, a Denver television station reported Saturday.

Kristin Hermeler, who died in the Monday shooting, wrote two letters to Brooks Brown, according to KCNC-TV.

Brown was a student at Columbine High School who was once targeted by Eric Harris, one of the gunmen in the April 20, 1999, shootings. Brown and Harris became friends before the Columbine shooting.

"As someone who has been rejected, victimized and ostracized in their life, I would like to thank you for giving him (Eric) that chance," Hermeler wrote in a June 1999 letter to Brown.

She also thanked Brown for not judging Harris and second gunman Dylan Klebold, who Hermeler said were "rejected and victimized by so many others."

The letters further suggest the sisters had a fascination with the Columbine massacre, in which Harris and Klebold killed 13 people and themselves.

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Makes this even more of a tragedy. Very sad.
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

It makes them wackos is what it does.
Glad they took only themselves out, and not trying to be funny glad they did elsewhere with our current firearms laws.
