Terrible. Sad. 

[Old Hippie]

Common here, our easy access to guns. I look at these other places that with stricter laws and I wonder WTF is happening..? What is the common break down with kids?Why are we seeing this happening so much? Very tragic.

I hear you. It seems to have become a solution to anyone's inability to deal with life on life's terms

Years back in the USA, when gun laws were REALLY lax, we didn’t seem to see this as much…yeah, the odd out guy going off, but it wasn’t a weekly event for school kids. I’f were a real conspiracy nut, I’d be coming up with all sorts of crap reasons.

For some, it's the go to solution based on what they are exposed to.

Wot you guys said - and -  a growing sense amongst the young, world over - that their betters and elders, whom they are already rebellious towards, are getting away with and being celebrated for, breaking rules, norms and institutions, even for encouraging riots and lawlessness.

"If (insert name) doesn't have to obey the law, why should I?"

That's my defence if I'm ever caught doing any... trouble.

The background story from the bamboo telegraph here...the young man was living with his grandparents because his parents dumped him there and ran away. Everyone put him down, his grandparents and all the other kds at school. He snapped...

Is there any significant event in a males life at this time? I seem to recall the kid at Siam Paragon was 14 as well. Jews and Muslims do it and other religions. What about Buddhists?

Getting your hands on a gum in Thailand isn't as easy as the average barstool ex-cia spy will have you believe.

 

Reasonably difficult and much more so in the last 5 years.

 

Places I used to shoot at are stricter, and and not as many villages with flint long guns.
