why do they call the Georgia shooter "deranged"?

It seems to me, he had an agenda and tried to follow it. "Deranged" sounds like he was maniacal and whacky.

does anyone know why he did it?

What was his agenda? To kill?

I read that he is 14, and that he was interviewed last year by police in Georgia. Apparently schools in the area were told to monitor him, but how can they do that? It doesn't mean anything and is just something law enforcement, schools, or any authority say when they can't do anything else. Although anonymous posts were made by the boy online, his father was the one with the guns and police determined the boy did not have unsupervised access to them. He probably did, but what do we want? If they had taken his father's guns, US would be closer to a dictatorship.

I never understand why people's response to crime is to advocate less freedom for all, more restrictions for society. It is an irrational and hysterical response.

@emiliya because how are you supposed to protect your family or go deer hunting without an AR-15?
@emiliya schools need security. they could have been watching him and others and when he went to go get his gun...he would have been stopped. he was stopped at the classroom door when they SAW he had a gun

@LILY61 It is unnatural to have security in schools.

Why can't we ask why he felt the need to shoot his fellow students and his teachers?
