The saddest thing I have seen so far is the shame and guilt expressed by the people of the gunman's home country.
I can't quite describe how this made me feel, it made me very melancholy.. But a little angry, too, that these people felt this way.. How unfair it is on them. How unfair it is on everyone, and I include the gunman in this statement.
Watching his video statement, about why, it makes me wonder about what kids do to kids. Certainly he must have had some mental instability beforehand.. How did the system not 'catch' this better? How did the lecturers, now commenting on his 'weird' behaviour and 'scary' writing, fail to do anything, at all?
Just makes me wonder.. I certainly don't pin the blame on any one person, not even the gunman himself. It seems, and it has seemed in previous cases, that these kids are bullied into this.. Whether it's by mockery, betrayal, or other psychological means.
People are cruel. People will endlessly emotionally torture a targeted person. People don't place enough value in trust, morals, loyalty, kindness. (By 'people', please don't assume I am including you.. I think we can all assume the 'people' I am generalising with such sweeping statements.)
It's just a damned shame.
(Sorry, totally ignored your gun debate.. It's been done, and it never goes anywhere new.)
