WTF is wrong with people?

On a somewhat related note, my son's school was on lockdown yesterday because apparently, a motorist lost a piece of roof rack on the highway, pulled over to retrieve the piece that fell off. Some do-gooder called in a "gunman on the highway".

My heart goes out to the families. I can't imagine how I would feel if that happened at my daughter's school, let alone if my daughter were a victim.

Wife and I were just discussing this...I think if this happened to my child, it would positively break me.

I agree. I'm not sure I'd want to go on. I just can't get what drives people to go and murder total strangers, and especially children.
