I saw this video this AM (it has been taken down I think).

Chilling.

One moment a normal classroom doing some sort of arts and crafts, kids and teacher chatting with each other and working at their desks.

Kid calmly raises his weapon (looks like a .22 or .25) and shoots a kid 2 feet away then the teacher — both fall instantly. He then shoots someone randomly near the back of the room, then eats his gun.

All in about a minute.

What demons cause this? We may never know.

Don't know, but add the fact that life is pretty cheap down there. It is here too in a lot of areas.

This is impossible because guns are illegal in Mexico.

Wow. That’s very interesting how the victims and the shooter collapse and die instantly. My prayers go out to the victims, but I’m also fascinated by the physiology of how quickly a life can disappear. Literally dead before you know it - which is good for the victims, since they’ll never know.
It is also amazing how quickly the kid slams into the floor after offing himself. I thought he might fall like the victims did, but I guess even the recoil from a .22 and physics is plenty powerful when you’re dead as soon as the trigger is pulled.
