This is indeed a huge shock for us, especially since the last school shooting in Finland was in 1989, and even then "only" two people died. There was a pretty big bomb in a shopping mall a few years back, but generally we have very little incidents like this.

Please don't try to use this to promote your political agendas. Guns in schools is just about the worst idea ever, especially in a country like Finland where only the police and some security guards ever carry them in public.
