Oh bloody hell, here we go again...
So, there's been another school shooting. This time in Finland. And the shooter also liked KMFDM, just like the Columbine boys. To be fair, the TV3 coverage was relatively fair and balanced, but I'm expecting more numbskullery in the press.

Here's an old KMFDM song that doesn't get quoted when things like this happen:

The Problem
There was a hearing
The rules were broken by one
Followed by another
The evidence was presented
An overwhelming list of infractions

An overwhelming representation
Of one's maladjustment to the system
The hearing was about him
About his attitude, about his behavior

He is, he represents
No - he embodies the problem
If he is expelled
The problem will go away

Responsibility
Relationship
Mutuality
Our solution

A person with a problem
I believe there's no such thing
As a person with a problem
If there is a problem it's a problem with the system
The system of home and family
Of school and community

He is not in this alone
He is not the problem

A reflection of the system
A mirror image of ourselves and our work

We acknowledge not all kids fit
Our ancillary design
And when they don't fit
They become the problem
The problem
Expel the problem
Make it go away


Their point is that problems like this are something that communities have, not simply individuals. Things like this happen because people are alienated from their communities. That alienation doesn't tend to be a one-sided equation.
