In some cases, the parents were drug addicts and many times didn't pay the water bill. The kids were lucky to even get fed, much less take showers or buy deodorant. Some kids wore the same clothes over and over, because their parents were too poor or too lazy to wash their clothes or even buy clothes that fit. When I was a kid myself, I was blind to a lot of this stuff. I had good parents, who although we were far from rich, they always got me the stuff I needed and made sure I was clean and had nice clothes for school. Not everyone is so lucky. Some kids are born to parents who either just don't care, are sadistic piles of trash or are too poor to buy them the daily essentials. It's not the fault of the kids, yet they have to go through the degradation and humiliation of being bullied every day for being unclean.

My wife is a special ed teacher and we've dealt with the scum of the Earth abusing her students. THIS shooter was none of those things, he was a trench coat wearing, commie and Nazi lapel pin sporting, brat who shot up a girl who turned him down. Again, the problem and solution is squarely in the home.
