April 26th 2002, Robert Steinhaeuser shot 13 facility members, 2 students and one police officer at the Johann Gutenberg Gymnasium.
My heart goes to all the victims, and Steinhaeuser family.

I remember the media furore, and the funeral very clearly, though I did not go to the school.
I don't understand what makes that okay in the person's mind. I understand that war video games have an influence but what makes the person cross the line between wats real and wats not.

Goodbye to all the ones I’ll miss,
