Two New Shootings! 2009-03-11 13:26:47 Reply

One in Germany.

Fifteen people have been killed by a teenage gunman who went on a rampage in south-west Germany, officials say.

Among the dead were nine pupils and three teachers at the Albertville secondary school in the town of Winnenden, north of Stuttgart.

The gunman, a 17-year-old former pupil, entered the school at about 0930 (0830 GMT) dressed in black combat gear and opened fire at random.

He fled in a stolen car, but was later killed in a shoot-out with police.

Officers say he shot himself dead after being wounded by the police.

One in Alabama.

Hell came to Samson, AL Tuesday in the form of a deranged gunman Michael McLendon, 27 whose killing spree left 10 victims dead before he turned a gun on himself.

So a 17 year old can kill better than a 27 year old. Brings the yank to about 32nd place replacing the German Walter Seifert (who is best known as the most original spree killer) and the German 16th place, replacing Charles Whitman at the spot.

Have a look here.

Discuss.

Yeah, I'll discuss.

What it comes down to is people need to stop making fun of the weird kids. We might as well just appease them and stay the fuck out of their way. Jocks and Preps are still too damn comfortable with themselves and don't realize the danger that accompanies being a douche bag.

The other thing we should do is keep guns away from fucking kids.

Does most of what I'm saying apply to America? Yes, in fact probably all of it. But that doesn't mean douche bags in other countries can rest easy.

Finally, we need to stop sensationalizing shootings because that shit is so ten years ago.

School shootings are so stupid and pointless. Kids shooting up a school because they got a C- in history.

One thing I've always noticed: The shooter kids always seem to have some kind of mental disorder or major social problem. Coincidence?

Consider Alabama's terrain and population in the area this was carried out in, and then look at the shitload of people you can pack into a school.

End of discussion.

Brilliant! We've not had a school shooting since November-ish! And now a double-bill!

Charles Whitman didn't have a mental disorder; nor a social problem as far as I recall.

Of course it's not a coincidence. There is a direct causal relationship. No one with a normally functioning brain would do that kind of shit.

This is my favourite, typical Japanese killer with Katanas.

Mutsuo Toi cut the electricity line to the village of Kaio on the evening of 20 May, which left the community in darkness. At around 1:30am on 21 May, he killed his 76-year-old grandmother by decapitating her with an axe.[2] Then he strapped two electric torches to his head and prowled through the village like a youth engaged in "night-crawling" or "Yobai" (%u591C%u9019%u3044 ?), entering the homes of his neighbours. He killed 29 neighbours (27 of whom died at the scene of the incident, while two others were fatally wounded, dying of their injuries later)[3]) and seriously injured three others in about an hour and half using a Browning shotgun, a Japanese sword and an axe. This was almost half of the residents of the small community.[2] At dawn he committed suicide by shooting himself in the chest.

Holy fuck,.... that's the best plan ever. Except I wouldn't kill myself at the end because I would not have left any forensic evidence behind.

Read it please, it is ranking for spree killings in general, and there are restrictions of who gets on the list anyway.

Good day all round, Tim did very well so congrats to him.

They don't. There is usually a clear and obvious downward spiral complete with warning signs. These people don't get the help they need and eventually it comes down to this. Of course, this is irrelevant as it's the guns fault. Guns are evil and turn previously sane people into criminals the moment they touch the evil metal. We need to ban all guns to make sure criminals don't exist.

To be fair, I think that all the people acting all 'OH LOL ANOTHER SHOOTING LETS LAUGHT AT THE FUCKERS CUS THIS SHIT IS FUNNY AS HELL' should die in a fire.

School shootings are not even close to being funny, let alone all the people that died there. It's a sad, sad trend with more and more people doing it because they need attention. Come on man, you know you shouldn't laugh at that. I mean, what is there to laugh about?

Another excellent example of why guns should NOT, repeat.. NOT be legal. It doesnt make sense to me, coming from the UK, that murder is illegal but buying guns is not.

I'm not surprised at that. 17 you're still kinda in your prime whereas at 27 you're starting to go downhill just a bit.

You may not find it funny, granted, but don't ram your views down my neck. If I, or others, find something humorous then just fucking accept it and move on. I accept that you likely giggle to Family Guy's predictable plots and retarded random moments so please accept that I, and others, have a dark sense of humour.

That doesn't mean that a 17-year-old in general can kill better than a 27-year-old. It's just that, that particular 17 year old was alot tougher than that particular 27 year old.

I think these spree killers are pathetic, in a way. It's not like fifty kills is an accomplishment or a thing to be proud of. If someone had single-handedly committed the 9/11, I'd give certain respect to the killer for the ability to control himself and the people around him.
I've got nothing against people committing suicide but why the fuck do you have to take others with you.
