Killing kindergartners with a cleaver?

Who does this?

If there be a God, He should get off his ass and put an end to shit like this.:mad:

According to the article, copycats.

*The attacks come despite the execution of Zheng Minsheng, 42, a former community doctor who stabbed eight children to death and wounded five others at an elementary school in eastern China on March 23.

Zheng, executed by a firing squad in Nanping City late last month, told investigators he carried out the attack because he was frustrated by “failures in his romantic life and in society,” according to Xinhua.

China Daily newspaper quoted Nanjing University sociology professor Zhu Li as saying Zheng’s attack inspired copycats.

“Some people may not have thought about stabbing school children, but due to the media’s coverage of such a case, they got an idea,” Zhu said.*

Regardless, it’s beyond fucked up.

And China apparently doesn’t devote a lot of resources to the appeals process. Geez, a March murderer was executed by April? Woah.

Last year, it was needle attacks.

Hey, I can see that. "Oh boy, stabbing schoolkids? Of course! Why didn’t I think of that?! In retrospect, it’s so obvious … "
Yeah, beyond fucked up

Presumably these guys can’t get access to guns, or the tolls would be worse.

On re-reading, maybe not. How do these guys actually catch so many kids to stab them? I mean, kids are fast and squirmy.

I suppose awarding the thread title an award for alliteration would be the mark of a sick son of a bitch?

Probably a lot of them were terrified and froze in place. :frowning:

Honestly, that needs to be taught? I mean, maybe he catches the first kid or two by surprise, but after that?

Well then, at minimum, they have an education problem. Every child should learn, “If somone comes at you with a knife or cleaver or pointy stick, RUN!”

I can just imagine the faces of a room full of 5-6 year old kiddies as a dude runs in hacking away at their teacher & little friends. Horrible.

Marvin Gaye will be turning in his grave. :frowning:

If it was a room with a single door, they quite likely hid under tables and in corners, as opposed to trying to run past the bad bad man.

Yup, education then.

Maybe a nursery rhyme:
Teacher, Child
Huband, Wife
Run from the Man
With the Butcher Knife

Go for a nursing home. They can’t run as fast.

This thread will just inspire copycat incidents in the U.S.

There must be lots of guys out there who’d think “I’m having failures in my romantic life, time to go hack up some kindergartners.”

They “got an idea”?? “Let’s go for ice cream” is getting an idea. This is fucking psychosis. I’d be willing to bet a bit of searching would turn up a couple of conspiracy sites talking about how the Chinese government is experimenting with some kind of “go fucking loopy in the head” gas on their citizens.

Good thing the death penalty is such an effective tool of dissuasion, 'eh?

Oh, I understand wanting to kill kids – they never shut up and and they’re LOUD and all screamy. Besides, they have all this potential anf future that a loser can get real resentful over.

Old folks in a nursing home are much less annoying, and probably less satisfying to kill. I mean, where’s the challenge, half of them would probably welcome it.

Or a raspberry!

Once an “idea” is out there, Chinese psychotics do tend to run with it. This is actually the fifth attack on school children (preschool through elementary) since March.

Japan will have a video game in the pipeline already then.

And probably an eroge to boot.
