Graz Mayor Elke Kahr has now said that 10 people have been killed in this morning’s shooting. School students are among the dead and a number of people have been reported wounded.

Police say the suspected gunman probably took his own life after the attack on the Dreierschützengasse high school at about 10:00 (09:00 BST).

It is not clear at the moment if the gunman was a student or a former student at the school.

    Every day I gain more respect for Luigi Mangione, who correctly identified the people responsible for his suffering and then got framed while eating a happy meal.

      I’m sorry, but how can you compare shooting a shitty CEO to shooting innocent children?
      And who would you shoot seemingly reasonable for this shit?

      More weapons and violence isn’t the answer
      We need to understand how and why we, as a society, produce individuals like that asshole-idiot

      And then we need to act and change.
      Those people usually grow into this mindset and in most cases needed help themselves.
      We need not to only see the early signs, we need to fundamentally change as a society.

        To everything there is a season, including violence. School shootings are always out of season, theoretically. The exception that proves the rule, perhaps.
