His reasoning isn't unfounded but incorrect. Those kids never even watched the matrix, the media made those connections. They planned to watch it the next day. At least according police reports gathered. His friend Dylan Klebold was interrogated.

Thats exactly why matrix cyberpunk never caught on, Columbine happened so soon after that the two events were cemented together by the media. Everyone who wore one afterwards had to deal with "uh oh school shooter!" comments. I personally knew three guys who wore one before, and well after too. By 2009ish it was weird. I worked with a guy as late as 2016 that wore one to work every day (well, two, but the other guy did it for cowboy reasons not edgelord reasons).

The guy in the picture might be just wearing a regular jacket, not a duster btw, and it's brown not black. Those sunglasses were all over the late 90's/early 2000's too.

Ya, I had leather pelle pelle jacket but it just happen to be a duster. Everyone called me a school shooter.
