Answer 2

In 2000, the president was chosen by electoral votes, but the populous voted for the other candidate.

2001-9/11

1999- Columbine

I have to agree with the previous answer, when they said that you should pick that which suits you. Seems like all I can do is remember really depressing stuff. Good luck
