Never a good thing to read/hear about. Hopefully it finishes without things getting even worse.

hopefully this will resolve without too many casulties.. whats with this world these days anyway

bet the new wave of video games will be blamed

Guaranteed.

Shit. That would suck.

shitty news. thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, it must be all that sympathy for others on display that makes them want to rush to your side.

Its sad that none of you thinks about the shot people nor their parents...

Ok Jesus does :)

fucked !!!

Yes but even so take a second and it also isn't a comparative scale. It sounds like 'Ha, ha your kids are dead too!'. I am sure that isn't how you mean it.

I guess I meant when I see kids being killed I see kids being killed regardless of the number at the time. Then maybe later I will consider how often things happen in various locations but at the time it is happening it is tragic..period.

It is the same way I feel when there is a big school shooting in the States and the media over here goes big time on it to the point where it feels (to me) like they are actually pretending to care as an excuse to guake.

apparently the guy added a bunch of videos to youtubejust like the last school shooter from finland

What's there to talk about? Obviously this guy was inspired by the several US shootings. Your disease is spreading to other countries.

Must be an American exchange student with a smuggled weapon .......

gangster rap made em do it

The amount of black and/or death metal groups I have been to see that are from Finland I would go that path first if I was a finger waving parent.

...what a stupid crackhead might say?

You're also falling into the trap there Sarah that most Americans still living in the US do (I know you live in the UK now which was the point - not something you'd normally forget)...ie forgetting Europe is not even close to being a country. There are still some very dangerous, shitty places in Europe. Gotta admit that Finland never struck me as one of them though.

Poiint is you can't try to compare Europe and the US from either side of the fence. But then you are also debating with an idiot who finds gloating in a thread announcing kids are killed somehow the right thing to do.

...and this guy proves that it's not just the odd American that can be a total twat. Good grief.

There was another? It is always so sad whenever there is news of a school shooting.

Fucking crazy Americans and their guns.

not only americans go to school with guns... finger pointers.

you, having been to HighSchool in the past decade, i can understand why kids do these kinds of things, the only thing i find sad, aside from the obvious is that administrators havent smarted up enough to see this kind of stuff happening, and correcting the shit kids to do each other, they are so scared of the parents jumping their shit that they do nothing, in exchange the parents that dont think administrators should teach their children right from wrong end up with dead kids. ;( thats whats sad.

Only a matter of time for one idiot to roll in, welcome

"On a per-capita basis, Yemen had the second most heavily armed citizenry behind the United States, with 61 guns per 100 people, followed by Finland with 56" :/

This is never a good thing.. and it only gets worse as the years pass by.

get this, the authorities were notified about the youtube videos last friday. the investigated and found no reason to concel his weapons permit, or take away his friearm, lol...
