[@dylansullivan380]

People really missed the point of this short film. The point is that just because someone is troubled, or plays violent video games, or is interested in guns or has problems with their social lives/parents, DOESNT mean they are going to become this monster/shooter in a given situation. Everyone has their interests and problems in life. Nobody’s life is this cookie cutter formula: If this happens, he’s a school shooter. It just doesn’t work like that. This short film effectively highlights that, and i commend the filmmakers.

[@harryroberts388]

Yes and no. There is the obvious introduction and thought. You should research this, as there are sometimes where aggravated shootings do have influence or are affiliated with such interest

That's why this is the most accurate school shooting video. The other short films are cringe and unrealistic as hell. They portray shooters as dumb incompetent sociopaths when they are not. Eric and Dylan literally had bombs set and ammunition to kill over 500 people during columbine. Nikolas planned to shoot down a large portion of students. School shooters, especially former students, have and know the layout of a school down. Plus, they're failing to recognize that school shooters literally have become smarter and more methodical in their approach. If you post a video out on the internet, which any person can access, that also includes shooters. who can literally use these videos as basis for what to do.

This video really shows the struggles for parents during a school shooting,it shows how worried parents get over the thought their child might be dead or might be the shooter. its heart breaking to know some parents think their child is the shooter and its even more heart breaking when they are. this short film brings a lot of emotion. this is fantastic.

Facts

[@autumnemerald1019]

I love how this short film shows how you never know who can turn out to be the next person to commit a crime as big as a shooting. After all, we never see Andrew's face. Also, it perfectly captures how much these crimes hurt the parents and other loved ones of those that are killed, injured, or somehow involved. This dad was holding his son's blanket after assuming that he was the shooter, probably taking in Andrew's scent and crying as he recalled every single memory with him. All the while, he wondered WHY his son had committed this horrific crime. Granted, we see in the end that Andrew WASN'T the shooter ... but that doesn't change how there are plenty of parents who end up going through the same exact thing when they lose a child to a crime - whether they are a victim or the one who caused everything. "Why" is the big question that we all have, considering how nobody just wakes up one day and automatically decides to become a shooter. Overall, this short film is VERY powerful and realistic.

[@coolsceegaming6178]

AutumnEmerald 101 the father was, to say the least, a bit of a twit, he repeatedly called his son which violates rule 1 (you could attract the shooter) and he jumped to conclusions before getting enough proof, and when there was proof showing the son wasn’t the shooter he still went “fu*k it, he’s the shooter.” While an ok film, so many holes

[@autumnemerald1019]

@@coolsceegaming6178 Well, in a moment where you know that a place is getting shot up, you HAVE to think fast. Otherwise, more people could die. If you have any assumptions as to who the shooter is, you MUST report them. The father did the right thing by giving his genuine thoughts to the police. Even though he turned out to be wrong, it's better to be safe than sorry.

The son had all the signs, yet it wasnt him. I think is one of the messages of this movie.

[@AC-ri2ph]

It was also a warning to parents, if you see the signs make sure you're paying attention and parenting. As you know 3 days ago

[@urithic]

I think the message is that it can be anyone and not just the stereotypical "emo boy" even if there were signs I just think that was for the purpose of leading the audience to believe it was Andrew.

[@thewisetomato1849]

There weren't any signs. None of the things the dad found were "signs". - The video games are not at all indicative of a school shooter. - The finding of the scrunched up note apologising to Katie seems like a shooter note, but gets disproved later by the facebook messages. - The knife is concerning, but a shooter wouldn't leave that in his bedroom, he would take it with him to the shooting as a backup. - The notebook is filled with ramblings about Katie. An obsession with a girl doesn't lead to a school shooting. Andrew would only dislike the girl, not the whole school. - The facebook messages reveal nothing. The convo with Chris is just edgy teen talk, Candice was just a bot account, and the convo with Katie is just about Andrew messing up and getting rejected. There was nothing in andrew's room to suggest that he was the shooter. Nothing. Yet the dad overreacted because of all the crap he's been reading about "the signs". The actual message is to not trust some random "signs" you read online and jump to conclusions. Just because you're child has stereotypical traits of a shooter doesn't mean they are one, so you shouldn't be jumping to conclusions and breaking their trust by ransacking their room to validate you're flawed beliefs like the father in the video did. This video is a lesson in critical thinking, not some tragic misunderstanding because "the signs were there". If you thought andrew was the shooter, congrats, you outed yourself as an idiot.

Yeah, it surprised me when Carl opened the cabinet, that Andrew is not the shooter. But the actions he did in the past, did make up the common signs of a common school shooter. Not caring about his team, not caring for his father, writing notes of how his girl friendzoned him, writing on social media with responses that seemed threatening and most importantly not answering phone calls from relatives. I don't know where Andrew was when the shooting started, but I imagine him being in his classroom hiding with his classmates and teacher, hoping the police gets the shooter.
