If he burned a bunch of those kids to death with gas, I doubt it would be any constellation to the parents that at least their child wasn't killed with a gun.
Someone wanted to kill a bunch of innocent children, that's the true weapon.

Wouldn't be a consolation but there would be a lot less parents to tell it to.
How many twentysomethings have blown up bombs, not as terrorist acts, but for the sake of killing? By definition these guys are losers, too many obstacles in their way and they give up. Right now a loser in Germany, a loser in Belgium, a loser in every country is dreaming of going out in a blaze of glory blasting his classmates but he just can't. and doesn't have the drive to find any other way.
btw, I get what you are saying. yes the human is the weapon. but that weapon is unloaded and what we are doing is giving it easy access to ammo.
