Killing young children is NOT TABOO for younger criminals. Most children who are shot and killed by people are done so by kids in their teens and even early 20's. They don't have any taboos on who they kill. There are NO taboos nowadays.

I agree with you regarding younger killers. I guess I dismiss this theory because of the expertise of the nature of the crime. I find it difficult to believe that the sniper(s) is a young person. I guess I just think that a person young enough to not care about targeting a child would not be capable of the sophistication and expertise of this particular series of crimes. But that's just my feeling, I certainly could be wrong, thus throwing off my argument.

Horrible thought that young people have no feelings about killing and can be cold blooded like that. But look at Columbine and then the rash of young kids just taking shots at other kids for fun like snipers. It is a sad thing to think that some kids are growing up like that. These may be kids old enough to drive and old enough to have guns and maybe are just on a kill for kicks spree with no particular motive but to act out their favorite movies or video games. How many kids have we seen within the past 10 years targeting people with guns. These kids have no guidance from adults and can basically do what they want.
