Two "punks" -- described as wearing trenchcoats, large boots, piercings -- who were probably social outcasts, and now act out of desperation and rage. What you say is right -- there is a lot wrong with them. But their problem IS our problem, and we should treat it like that, and think about what we could do. The gunmen are victims, too.
By all accounts, it sounds like this school was as diverse as they come. If you can manage to be an outcast in that environment, then there is seriously something wrong with you to begin with.

Although, there are no confirmed reports that the shooters were students.
