I's sorry this young man lost his life. And I don't know what other alternatives could have been applied to save his life and the others. I am thinking maybe a child psychologist and a negotiotator(sp) could have been called in to help him verbalize his feelings.
I dont know what happened. I barely read the story. But let me tell you this when the SWAT team is called in,they not there to pussyfoot around, you will get killed.They are not their to save the person's life that is threatening to kill people,their job is to neutralize the situation (kill the person).
I remember an unfortunate incident where my neighbor was having a nervous breakdown and threatened to kill himself.His stupid doctor called in the SWAT team. The only thing that kept him alive was my caring neighbors who talked to him in a calm matter and he came out quietly.
I am figuring they did not want another Columbine on their hands.
Just my 2 cents
