I only know what was reported that he told his friends in his former home town was happening to him, and what I gathered from an interview with one of the students, a girl, at the school.

Please don['t think that I am implying that being bullied at school justifies opening fire. I am merely pointing out how strange it has seemed to me, when students report patterns of extreme bullying have preceded such incidents, that the teachers were either unaware of or uninterested in the phenomenon.

The "quite capable of teasing others" comment seems to imply something, but I don't know what. That bullies get what they deserve? I hope and assume not.

No one gets through high school w/o being teased. There is the matter of degree, of course. Misery-causing, ongoing humiliation by bullies of weak individuals should be stopped.

This phenomenon is, I understand, worse in Japan than it is here.
