[0:00] Also the greatest

[0:05] on World News Tonight this Sunday in

[0:08] Littleton, Colorado, saying goodbye

[0:15] and trying to make sense of so many

[0:17] young lives cut short. Beyond the tears

[0:21] for the children, possible tough

[0:23] consequences for the parents of the

[0:25] killers. I think that perhaps charges

[0:28] will be filed and certainly should be

[0:30] filed. And on day 33 in NATO's attack on

[0:33] Yugoslavia, hitting Serb TV again. Is it

[0:37] a legitimate target

[0:44] from ABC?

[0:47] This is World News Tonight Sunday. Good

[0:51] evening. I'm Carol Simpson. It was

[0:53] another day of mourning in Littleton,

[0:55] Colorado. A day of more tributes and

[0:58] more tears. A day that also brought new

[1:01] questions, including how much

[1:03] responsibility parents should bear when

[1:06] their children kill. We begin with a

[1:08] town engulfed in sadness. And ABC's Tom

[1:11] Foreman in Littleton.

[1:13] [Music]

[1:19] You've cried until the tears run dry.

[1:24] At the foot of the Rockies and beneath

[1:26] the mountain of sorrow, the town of

[1:28] Littleton gathered less than a mile from

[1:30] the school today, joined by thousands of

[1:32] others, some who drove hundreds of miles

[1:35] to pray and remember. Never in our

[1:38] wildest dreams did we ever imagine that

[1:42] we would be gathered here to mourn the

[1:45] loss of so many young innocent lives.

[1:49] This crime is breathtaking in its horror

[1:54] and its victims are many.

[1:57] [Applause]

[1:59] [Music]

[2:04] Many of the speakers told tales of the

[2:06] victims, beginning with the 12 students

[2:08] who were killed, of their bravery and

[2:10] their strength, their friendships and

[2:12] their families, their hopes and their

[2:14] dreams, their lives and their loss.

[2:18] Grant
