Hopefully the mass murderer dies of his self inflicted wounds but if not, he faces a lifetime in luxurious Finnish prison-spas as they try to rehabilitate him. After just a few short years he could be sent to a half-way house.

Not sure this has anything to do with the shooting but Finland has the most liberal gun ownership laws in Europe. All you really need to own one is be able to see and know which end of the weapon to hold when firing....

"With 1.6 million firearms in private hands, Finland is an anomaly in Europe, lagging behind only the United States and Yemen in civilian gun ownership, studies show."

Now I know why Finland has now three of six spree killings I am aware of in Europe during the last 30 years. Just goes to show "Have guns, will kill."

Agree Finnish people do not bother anybody and they were in school trying to better themselfs. Is that a crime? No wonder I carry a weapon no matter where I go even to the mail box.
