Seriously, stop it with that! You are relying on a 60 years old stereotype made up by some 40 years old fat american bloke that thinks that germans=nazi.
That wasn't the reference at all. Nobody with half a braincell these days thinks Germans=nazi. Keep up!
Nonsense. Everyone knows the Germans have a brilliant sense of humour. Look at all the fantastic comedy TV series that come out of Germany, for example!
They better ban all computer games quickly, or it will happen again! Also books mentioning war or guns should be banned and subsequently burned. Then jam all TV stations and we can finally live a happy life in flowery sunshine world :hippy:
or blame the government that allows 15 year olds to buy weapons in Finland,
or the police officers who visited this guy 1 day earlier (because of the shooting videos he posted in the net before) but the officer thought he is not dangerous. etc. etc.
Do you really think that parenting can stop a disease?
Because someone who does something like that
must be emotionally and psychologically disturbed.
And not even a trained police officer noticed it how can the parents know it.
I don't think it's always that easy to say: "It's the parent's fault"
But of course if you want you can find guilty people everywhere:
What about the Gun fabricator, if the guy had no chance to buy one, he couldn't shoot someone else.
That's just an example of "It just depends of how you want to see it".
Yeah, let's blame everyone than himself, it's not the governments fault. Some times things like that are unvoidable, and you can cry as much you want and make tons of new rules, but it won't change a thing. Humans are strange creatures, and we'll never understand them all, end of story.
although the parents are of great importance for the development of a child, the influences it gets from them are not the only ones. think of school, friends, etc.
you can't blame the parents for their son being a daft mass murderer.
Funny thing is that this guy quit army. According to newspapers. He was "unadaptable" or something. Since this country has conscription, it should be connected to gun license. I mean if a person quits army then it's very very unlikely that person starts shooting as a hobby or sport...
Or just scrap the conscription, I've never seen it actually achieve anything other than wasting money, teaching civilians how to use firearms, delay people going in to further education and a good few human rights abuses to boot.
Really? Remember Moscow theater siege? Chechnyan rebels killed 2 people, Russian special forces killed 129 people gassing the theater and hindered the aftermath rescue efforts by not telling medical personnel what gas they used there by possibly killing even more people.
No. Buying gun and obtaining gun lisence is different thing. And you would need parents authorisation for that and its probably not that easy as it sounds like. And probably that is limited only to hunting guns.
Some of the videos he posted to youtube just yesterday. After he visited police. I wouldn't blame this police because I trust their expertise. Psychopaths are worlds best liars. Might be that this police won't sleep for couple of next weeks or years without some heavy medication.
Well if it wasn't a WW2 propaganda then I don't see how someone could come up with such a stereotype?Going furthermore off-topic I can say that germans are almost totally different (some enjoy a good beer as mentioned in the stereotype ). I met funny, relaxed, friendly people on my trips to Germany. No way near to their stereotype.
So the authorities have to check your backgrounds before giving permissions, now let's blame them even more, they must have seen it.
I just wrote the sentence you quoted and the above as an example, that you can blame everyone if you want to, depends of how you argue.
I think it's just not fair to always and everywhere say: "the parents fault"
But they only noticed and visited him because of the videos he posted earlier, or not?
Anyway I agree with you there is no real way to find out psychopaths but if not even trained people can, how can the parents.
Finland, being in the EU (ergo having significant ties with NATO) will not be invaded unless Putin REALLY goes on the Smirnoff and disco biscuits. I'm talking drinking pints of the stuff.
Rational thinking is useless with this subject. At least government is following people's opinion, since there is clear support for keeping conscription (that only results lots of badly equipped, badly trained cannon fodder with zero motivation).
