Why do they kill those poor, innocent students then kill themselves?

Question

The third article about this:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/niu_shooting

It's so foolish. Why do they kill people that just want to learn and then kill themselves? When I see these articles I think 2 things 1) I really feel sorry for the students who died just from going to school and living there normals lives 2) The gunman shouldn't be felt sorry for at all because no one tortured him until he had to kill himself and others.

It's really sad. Imagine just sitting in your school that you thought was "safe" until some stranger with a gun walks in and just shoots randomly for no reason. He has no right, but what in the world can we do? It's just a simple click away for him if you move or try to do something.

Why do they do this? The last gunman was acounced that he did it because he was "lonely" and lots of kids made fun of him. But how about this guy? Was he on drugs? Did he feel he wasn't getting what he deserved?

Such a scary feeling. Our schools are no longer safe.

Answer 1

I don't know

I don't know...

it's so crazy, so very sad

It makes me scared to have kids someday, because I don't know how to keep them safe from all the unexpected crazies..

Answer 2

it seems like a lot of these students could not deal with the tension of things going on in college and in their personal affairs. finally, they just act upon their steam and this is what happens. i, myself, try not to hang around with anyone who seem a bit more disturbed than normal.

college and work is pretty stressful, and unfortunately this happens. it shouldnt, but it did. just like many other circumstances. but yeah, you're right. i'm getting kinda nervous myself. it's like a few college students went balony and is costing their own lives along with others.

Answer 3

They are spineless jellyfish who don't want to live.  And instead of just taking their own life, they want to go out with a "Blaze of Glory" so they take as many people as they can with them.  It's a very very sad situation.

Answer 4

We are no longer safe anywhere.I think drugs  have plenty to do with all these  facts.

Answer 5

My best guess is they had psychological problems, or an extreme chemical imbalance. There are millions of lonely kids at school that get made fun of or think about harming other students. I guess it all burns down to whether you have that kind of hate.

My condolences go out to the family and friends who lost loved ones.

Answer 6

I don't know his reason, but I think thas the young man had a condition and he was not taking his medicine.

Thanks.

Answer 7

idk probabaly he have a low self esteem about himself....the guy is so ugly probably he doesnt have a gf

Answer 8

Psychotic,weird people...

He probably couldn't get a girlfriend, so he got all jealous of other kids at school having a Life...

like why a school?? Innocent of all places...

if this guy was a real psycho MAN he coulda tried a cop station, he wuda got taken down the second the gun run was pointed.

i'm glad its hard to get guns here in Toronto now...

Answer 9

I agree with you.  It doesn't matter why he did it.  He took the coward's way out and shot himself instead of facing the court system and getting his punishment.  I think these crazies do it to become infamous.
