Jokela High School massacre

Great, now the school massacre thing got into Finland too

quote:

TUUSULA, Finland - An 18-year-old gunman killed eight people at a high school in southern Finland on Wednesday, then shot himself but survived, police said. The attack came hours after a video was posted on YouTube predicting a school massacre. Police said the gunman, reportedly a student at Jokela High School, was being treated at a local hospital. "Five boys, two girls and one adult woman were killed," Police Chief Matti Tohkanen told a news conference, later identifying the woman as the principal of the school in the Tuusula municipality, some 40 miles from the Finnish capital Helsinki. The YouTube video, set to hard-driving music, shows a still photo of a school that appears to be the school. The photo then fragments to reveal a red-tinted picture of a man pointing a gun at the camera. The video was apparently later removed from the site. �It felt unreal� "He (the gunman) was moving systematically through the school hallways, knocking on the doors and shooting through the doors," Kim Kiuru, a teacher at the school, said at the scene. "It felt unreal, a pupil I have taught myself was running toward me, screaming, a pistol in his hand," Kiuru said. The YouTube video was entitled "Jokela High School Massacre � 11/7/2007" and was posted by a user called Sturmgeist89. "Sturmgeist" means storm spirit in German. Police surrounded the school and a city official announced shortly before 9 a.m. ET that the siege was over. Junior Constable Olli Laine said police surrounded the building, which houses both a middle school and high school, and had evacuated students. Kiuru, who was teaching a grade 8 class when the shooting started, said he helped his pupils escape the building through the classroom windows. Violence rare at Finnish schools Despite having the third-largest per capita ratio of handgun ownership in the world, violent incidents are rare at Finnish schools. According to Finnish media, there have been four stabbings at schools since 1999. None of these caused fatalities. The last major attack in the country came in 2002 when a young man killed himself and six others in a bomb blast at a shopping mall in Helsinki.

well according to this http://www.appelsiini.org/tuusula_m...%20&%20Love.doc he hates rap music and tv commericals

then shot himself but survived, police said

I couldn't help it.

Apparently he was just pissed at the "common people" and thinking he was of a superior race or something. According to some of his school mates, he never was in any way a popular person and always had strong beliefs for certain issues like for nazism.

A .22 caliber handgun isn't really among the most powerful weapons for a suicide let alone anything else so it's not a surprise the ****** survived. And getting more powerful guns around here isn't anywhere as simple as in the US for example.

i just got word from a co-worker that he expired at the hospital. is this true? i can't find related news-sources.

Nothing's been confirmed, but we've been told his chances are "slim to none" and that he's braindead. So basically he'll most likely die any moment now if he hasn't already.

So supposedly he has a youtube account.

Copied this from his youtube profile before it was deleted:

quote:

I am a cynical existentialist, antihuman humanist, antisocial socialdarwinist, realistic idealist and godlike atheist. SI VIS PACEM, PARA BELLUM! JUSTITIA SUUM CUIQUE DISTRIBUIT! SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS! I am prepared to fight and die for my cause. I, as a natural selector, will eliminate all who I see unfit, disgraces of human race and failures of natural selection. You might ask yourselves, why did I do this and what do I want. Well, most of you are too arrogant and closed-minded to understand... You will proprably say me that I am"insane", "crazy", "psychopath", "criminal" or crap like that. No, the truth is that I am just an animl, a human, an individual, a dissident. I have had enough. I don't want to be part of this fucked up society. Like some other wise people have said in the past, human race is not worth fighting for or saving... only worth killing. But... When my enemies will run and hide in fear when mentioning my name... When the gangsters of the corrupted governments have been shot in the streets... When the rule of idioracy and the democratic system has been replaced with justice... When intelligent people are finally free and rule the society instead of the idiocratic rule of majority... In that great day of deliverance, you will know what I want. Long live the revolution... revolution against the system, which enslaves not only the majority of weak-minded masses but also the small minority of strong-minded and intelligent individuals! If we want to live in a different world, we must act. We must rise against the enslaving, corrupted and totalitarian regimes and overthrow the tyrants, gangsters and the rule of idiocracy. I can't alone change much but hopefully my actions will inspire all the intelligent people of the world and start some sort of revolution against the current systems. The system discriminating naturality and justice, is my enemy. The people living in the world of delusion and supporting this system are my enemies. I am ready to die for a cause I know is right, just and true... even if I would lose or the battle would be only remembered as evil... I will rather fight and die than live a long and unhappy life. And remember that this is my war, my ideas and my plans. Don't blame anyone else for my actions than myself. Don't blame my parents or my friends. I told nobody about my plans and I always kept them inside my mind only. Don't blame the movies I see, the music I hear, the games I play or the books I read. No, they had nothing to do with this. This is my war: one man war against humanity, governments and weak-minded masses of the world! No mercy for the scum of the earth! HUMANITY IS OVERRATED! It's time to put NATURAL SELECTION & SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST back on tracks!

Why do these guys kill others before themselves? Just offing themselves would be cheaper in ammo costs.

Dunno. Why not skip to the last part right away and get it out of the way? Ammo costs for .22s aren't that much tho so there "needs" to be another reasoning to get these loonies to kill only themselves.

This still saddens me.. from what i have gathered, this was the 2nd ever school shooting around here for about the past 20 years so let's hope there won't be a next one anytime soon.

*EDIT* It's now confirmed the shooter died about 1.5hrs ago.

The killer died in the hospital one hour ago

It is confirmed that the shooter died about 2.5 hours ago

that sucks, but hahahaha he shot himself and survived... i hope they send him to "pound me in the ass" prison.
