Jim Ellars MEPA Theory

TheoryIt was a nice, warm, sunny day in the city of Littleton, Colorado. The bell rang like it does every day, telling everyone that school was starting. This day was going to be different, though! Within a matter of hours, the peaceful, yet busy halls of Columbine High School would turn into a living Hell on Earth by Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold! Why did this tragedy happen? Does the saying, Survival of the fittest, play in this? We will take a look at this occurrence and try to explain it through my M.E.P.A. (Mental/Emotional/Physical Adaptation) Theory.

Forty-five percent of Americans say that their social standing is what got them where they were. Thats a big number isnt it?First we will look at the first stage of this evolution, the mental stage. This stage pretty much sets the course of what every other stage will take. A hostile physical environment creates a hostile mental environment. We were taunted and terrorized by the jocks, they called us faggots, bashed us into lockers, and threw rocks at us, every day, and 18-year-old anonymous member of them, now, famous Trench Coat Mafia says.
