Rachels Challenge

AT school yesterday we walked over to the ANC for a presentation on the Columbine shootings that occured April 20th, 1999. When 2 bullies killed 12 students and 1 teacher. The first one to be shot was Rachel Joy Scott and the familly of Rachel started a program entitled Rachels chalenge.

The 2 killers names were....Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris. They didnt just decide all of a sudden that they were going to go kill a bunch of people. They had it planned out.They had 2 explosives in the cafeteria and when the went off they were going to shoot the people who came out of the school. When the explosives didnt go off they made there way into the school and shoot and killled 12 students and 1 teacher. 27 injured. Then they killed themselves.
At the presentation The man asked us if WE would accept Rachels Challenge. To start a chain reaction TO CHANGE THE WORLD! I accepted. Do you?




               
I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion then it will start a chain reaction of the same.
