Well this goes under the "Well this sure could have been prevented with a bit more sense’ files-

This guy snapped after this school blocked his driveway and prevented him going about his business and after a long time of this and them not listening to his complaints well, he went ahead and ran over some kids. A horrible horrible tragedy. What he did was wrong and I don’t condone it for a second, but God! if that school had had a little more courtesy and not blocked people’s damn driveways in the first place then this tragedy would never have happened.
Blocking people’s access to their own houses like that is extremely selfish and discourteous. (and this guy’s livelihood depended on being able to get in and out without being blocked) Not listening to justifiable complaints about that and acting on them accordingly is appalling. This was a tragedy just waiting to happen. Perhaps now the school will realise they should have listened to this guy before he snapped and ran some kids over!
What a disgraceful example to set to children too. That it is okay if you inconvenience people in their own homes. When I was a child I was taught that putting other people to trouble like that was never okay! It makes me quite angry that this school thought it could do this. (and yes, I know the fact that 2 children are dead makes this point trivial by comparison by a loooooong way but the fact remains that this stupidity and selfishness was a direct cause of this tragedy! It appalls me.)
Don’t get me wrong, again I do not condone what he did, it was a horrible thing and I would never have done it (nor most people )but God, I can see the frustration he must have felt!
