  • Disturbing

    Finnish school killer had enough rounds to slaughter hundreds:

    Some more details about the Jokela High School shooting that I found more than disturbing.

    Disturbing item #1.

    According to the police, the man shot some of his victims almost 20 times.

    Disturbing item #2.

    Chief Inspector Tero Haapala said the gunner had written a suicide note bidding farewell to his family.

    “The family brought it to the police,” CI Haapala added.

    The parents are under police protection after receiving threats.

    The police think the man acted alone and that the parents had no knowledge of his intentions.

    They never do, do they?

  • Failure to ignite

    Police Probe YouTube School Gunman’s Suicide Note:

    The article only briefly mentions the suicide note but doesn’t divulge its contents. However, I really want to talk about something else.

    It seems that not only was Pekka-Eric Auvinen a failure in life it seems that he was a failure in his plans as well.

    The killer also tried to start a fire, dousing the floor and walls of the second floor of the school building in a flammable liquid, but failed to ignite it, Haapala said.

    Reminds me of two other failures who tried to blow up their school with propane tanks but the tanks failed to detonate. Just like his heroes, Pekka-Eric Auvinen is a failure in every sense of the word.

  • The Myth Spreads Again

    Finnish school shooter was bullied:

    It was only a matter of time before they trotted “the excuse” out.

    The Finnish teenager who killed eight people in a high school shooting was a bullied social outcast but appears to have picked his victims randomly, a senior police official said Thursday.

    Police spokesman Goran Wennqvist told reporters the gunman, identified as 18-year-old Pekka-Eric Auvinen, left a suicide note, “saying goodbye to his family and a message … indicating his will against society.”

    Well, when you’re a mutant loser who worships at the altar of cowards you kind of invite trouble on yourself. It’s almost like these kids become mutants first then almost beg to be bullied so they can somehow emulate their cowardly heroes. Except for the fact that scumbags Harris and Klebold weren’t bullied.

    Even if Auvinen was bullied just like his cowardly heroes he picked his victims at random.

    Witnesses described a scene of mayhem in the leafy lakeside community, in which the assailant scoured the school for victims while shouting “Revolution!”

    There is no revolution. The man is not holding you back. The only person holding this assclown back was himself.

  • Finnish school shooter dead

    Finnish Student Shoots Himself After Shooting Rampage That Killed 7 Other Students, 1 Teacher:

    Pekka-Eric Auvinen, the gunman at the Jokela High School shooting in Finland, has died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

    The murderer, named by police as Pekka-Eric Auvinen, then shot himself in the head and died in a hospital Wednesday night. He killed eight people, including his headteacher, after moving from classroom to classroom and spraying them with gunfire at the secondary he attended in Tuusula, a small town north of Helsinki.

    Just another weak coward in a too long line of cowards. I was hoping for once that one of these little cretins would be brought to justice. I hope his last hours were more painful than the pain he inflicted.

    Once again the flames of hell burn a little more yellow tonight.

  • Update from Finland

  • Castillo gets trial date

    Date set in Orange High shooting trial:

    You remember Alvaro Rafael Castillo, don’t you? He’s the nut case who shot and killed his father while his father slept and then went to Orange High School in North Carolina and shot the place up. Luckily only two students were injured. He is also a mutant of the highest order. Not only did he have an obsession with Columbine but he also e-mailed Columbine principal Frank DeAngelis shortly before going on his spree.

    Anyway, he was in court yesterday to receive the date of his trial which is set for May 5, 2008. And he did this to piss somebody off.

    After Morgan agreed to the date, Castillo smiled and tossed a slight wave over his shoulders to the courtroom before being led out of the back of the building to a sheriff’s car.

    It pissed me off anyway. People who are on trial for murder should not smile ever.

  • Asa Coon surveillance footage released

    asacoonvideo

    Cleveland Police Release School Shooting Video:

    Cleveland police released the surveillance footage of Asa Coon inside SuccessTech Academy going on his shooting rampage. The video doesn’t show much except for Coon going through the hallways and police arriving on the scene. There is no footage of Coon shooting or taking his own life.

    However if you’ve seen the photo of Coon after his suicide he looks like a 12-year-old boy. But in the picture I’ve posted above you see what he really is. An angry gun-toting selfish homicidal maniac bent on taking lives because of his own inadequacies.

  • Mitchell Johnson indicted

    FAYETTEVILLE : Johnson indicted on gun charge:

    Jonesboro gunman Mitchell Johnson was indicted yesterday on federal weapons charges. Johnson was stopped on New Year’s day and found to be in possession of a 9mm handgun. He’s looking at 10 years in prison and a $250K fine. He only spent 7 years locked up for the Jonesboro shootings.

    Johnson is out on bond and his court date is scheduled for December 3rd.

    10 years isn’t even close to what he should be receiving for the lives he took.

  • SuccessTech footage to be released

    Police To Release Tape Of Shootings At SuccessTech:

    Police are going to release the surveillance footage of the shootings at SuccessTech Academy today at 1pm local time during a press conference.

    Police said the video shows two of the four victims getting shot, but the scenes are not overtly graphic because the cameras are about 100 feet away.

    The mutants will have this posted on YouTube with a loving tribute to Coon I’m sure.
