what's the motive?

teachers were too strict?

sad stuff.

In 20 years Ive never heard of this- USA mirroring - so sad.

Happened to be near the area today. The ambulances just keep coming. It is quite upsetting watching the continual stream. It's also traffic chaos. I'm now hearing of multiple fatalities.

What is the point of this speculation. Nobody knows anything now other than 7 are tragically dead, and many wounded including at least one critically. No reason at all for speculation at a time like this.

Of course there is.

Schools need to understand why it happened to try to prevent it happening again.

Oh no! So very sad 😪
