Pekka-Eric Auvinen
So, you think you want a revolution?
18-year-old Pekka-Eric Auvinen, a bullied Finnish high school student who idolized Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin, didn’t like the injustices he saw in the world.
By the way, interesting bunch of people to idolize there. Can you imagine all five of those guys sitting down and playing a rousing game of Halo3 while drinking Coke and sharing a plate of cookies?
No? Maybe it’s just me then.
Active on YouTube, Pekka-Eric Auvinen made almost a hundred videos that displayed his contempt for the world, and posted them to the video site for everyone to see.
On his YouTube channel, “The Channel of Truth and Justice,” he had a lot to say.
I am a cynical existentialist, antihuman humanist, antisocial social darwinist, realistic idealist and godlike atheist.
Pekka-Eric Auvinen loved his adjectives, didn’t he?
He also loved his .22 pistol, and would often hold it while recording several of his video rants.
On the 7th of November, 2007, Pekka-Eric Auvinen recorded the last of his video rants and uploaded it to YouTube. After that was done, he took his pistol with him to Jokela High School in southern Finland – a school with 400 students between the ages of 12 and 18 – and started killing people.
He started roaming the campus, walking through various corridors and bursting into classroom after classroom – shooting at random targets that presented themselves. As Pekka-Eric Auvinen stalked his fellow man, he would randomly shout things like “Revolution” and “Smash everything!”
His effectiveness was questionable at best, because nobody is going to join someone in revolutionary activities while that person is shooting at them.
After killing five boys, two girls and the headmistress, and wounding a dozen more students, Pekka-Eric Auvinen shouted: “This is the start of the revolution,” turned the gun on himself and shot himself in the head.
It’s probably not entirely possible to understand exactly why Pekka-Eric Auvinen decided to go on a rampage, but his feelings mirrored the feelings of others before him.
Read this excerpt from Pekka-Eric Auvinen and ask yourself what he had to say this sounds familiar, if it sounds like something you’ve read before.
You might ask yourselves, why did I do this and what do I want. Well, most of you are too arrogant and closed-minded to understand… You will proprably say me that I am”insane”, “crazy”, “psychopath”, “criminal” or crap like that. No, the truth is that I am just an animl, a human, an individual, a dissident.
I have had enough. I don’t want to be part of this fucked up society. Like some other wise people have said in the past, human race is not worth fighting for or saving… only worth killing. But… When my enemies will run and hide in fear when mentioning my name… When the gangsters of the corrupted governments have been shot in the streets… When the rule of idioracy and the democratic system has been replaced with justice… When intelligent people are finally free and rule the society instead of the idiocratic rule of majority… In that great day of deliverance, you will know what I want.
Pekka-Eric Auvinen certainly wasn’t the first to do this, and he won’t be the last.
God help us.

nutter. i also think he looks a bit like a young Val Kilmer in that photo. no offense Val.
As horrible as this is it’s kind of disgusting that the american media isn’t reporting this. It’s only four less people than were killed at Columbine and yet there is nothing. Findland doesn’t have any oil so I guess america isn’t interested in what’s happening there.
It’s amazing that the United States hasn’t picked up on this. Drudge is the only news source that’s really covered the incident.
But then American news is more concerned with the writer’s strike and the loss of “Desperate Housewives” and “24″ than it is with a school shooting in a relatively peaceful country.
America doesn’t want to publish this shit because it makes more copycats like Pekka do the same damn thing, or even worse.
What’s with all the school shootings recently? I mean it seems after V-Tech the deed’s sorta become a fad, a very bad one of course, but still the frequency of them is rising.
this guy’s just a copy-cat. may he burn in hell
Anon…if you think about it, it’s not really recently. They happen every few months. If you think about it, Columbine was the “first maintstream” one and well it just keeps going. Not like once a month, but we’ll say seasonally. They might not be as big as Columbine or V-tech, but they happen. They’re in the headlines…As far as he being a copy cat, I don’t know if I agree. He seems more like a gay (I don’t mean that in a bad way, strictly a homosexual way) anarchist. That’s all it is. Really, soceity can’t except it.
At least he didn’t live in Utah, then he really would’ve been screwed.
[...] a few other mass killers, Steve Kazmierczak wasn’t on anyone’s “mass killing” short [...]
And by the way, his name is Pekka-Eric Auvinen, not Auvine
Thanks, I’ll fix that now.
….and it’s Jokela high school, not Joleka. Didn’t notice that at first, sorry. But that’s all =)
I think the saddest part is that he killed the headmistress execution-style, while she was on her knees after trying to talk him out of it.
I realize that our society is far from perfect (ok, I’m an American, but still relevant)….why do these dick tards have to take out innocent people?
I also don’t understand why their solution to these problems is to take out innocents. Retaliation and violence like this is unacceptable in any measure, but to inflict it upon people who had nothing to do with your pain? I guess they do this as a message or some kind of stand, but it gets lost in the misguided attacks. Why not work to better society instead of tearing it down?
why don’t any of these people watch Dexter :/
May Pekka-Eric Auvinen rot in Hell along side with Eric Harris/Dylan Klebold, Beslan Terrorists, and Seung-Hui Cho. They all deserve each other.
This emphasizes well the bullying problem in European schools. If Finland had had zero tolerance on bullying, it is unlikely Mr. Auvinen had ever snapped.
But if it is that bad in Finland, how bad must it be in Japan?

Yeah. Like that’s happening.
It’s like we’re having a troll invasion lately. If we could smell them coming I imagine it would be like rotten bleu cheese and fermented sauerkraut that’s been sitting since last New Year’s Eve.
SMH
Is there a cream for this infestation? Maybe a spray? A blowtorch? Really now.
I’m thinking gasoline and a blowtorch :)
I think VCBecky would die very easily.
No Pekka:) I didn’t read this and think you were “insane” or “crazy”. I didn’t even think you were a “psychopath”. I saw you picture before i clicked on the article and thought, ‘Just another fuckin bitch boy wanna be’.. And you proved me right:) God i love being right XD hahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH have fun jugglin stalins balls in your mouth and burn in hell bitch.. RIP to the victims of this wanna be. Or ‘wanted to be’ XD
I don’t believe in hell so nope.
In my opinion,this dude was already in hell-it’s called himself.He sounded like a pretty angry,depressed person.
To be that far from the warm feeling of loving others is hell itself.
fuck off frozen your gay. you’d probably piss your pants if pekka put his .22 to your forehead and beg for your life, bitch ass noob
Did you just call Frozen a ‘noob’? You don’t use gamerspeak irl, do you? You’re so hardcore! Shit, man, what are you doing online? Why aren’t you IN line, waiting to preorder the next WoW XPac? You, sir, are a basement-dwelling, Hotpocket-eating Pekka-bobber with masturbation-related carpel tunnel. AND you’re a gamer douchebag. Your idea of a threat is laughable, probably much like your face. If you tell me you’re not a virgin, I will totally believe you.
Totally.
My gamerspeak recently had a crash booster, so I think I can expand a little on Vcbecky’s apt response.
Dude, stop face-rolling your responses, or we’ll /kick you and point out your noob skills and toon’s sub-patch gear. Put in some time learning this language, or this sub-speak.
Thank you, Jason. ROFL!
