Teens who kill. On Monday, January 29 1979 16 yr old Brenda Ann Spencer used a rifle to wound eight children and one police officer at Cleveland Elementary School in San Diego, and to kill the Principal and custodian. The school was across the street from her house. She used the rifle she had recently been given for Christmas by her father. When the 6 hour incident ended and the pretty teenager was asked why she had committed the crime. She shrugged and replied, “I don’t like Mondays. This livens up the day.” She also said “I had no reason for it, and it was just a lot of fun.” “It was just like shooting ducks in a pond.” and “they looked like a herd of cows standing around it was really easy pickings.” Her lack of remorse and inability to provide a serious explanation for her actions inspired the song “I Don’t Like Mondays”. Her quote “I don’t like Mondays” also appears written on a wall in the movie, The Breakfast Club. *Totes.
