Izhevsk. A School Shooting. Searches for Answers.
Posted by HCN on Monday, September 26, 2022
Monday September 26th, 2022 local time, roughly over 500 miles of Moscow, there was reported to be a school shooting, or perhaps more accurately worded, a shooting at a school, that claimed the lives of over a dozen, and caused injury to about or over 20. Reports are still coming in.
It is easy to write that the event comes at a time when Russia has been at the eye of global attention, while Putin has been discussing polarization.
As political science erudites understand polarization has different forms and sub-types. Newspapers have stated in the past few days that Putin has been backed into a tight-spot, although whether he backed himself in or other powers in the Russian system caused him that, not necessarily expounded on.
The school shooting leaves questions where answers are sought.
Perhaps questions by Russians, and questions by others around the world.
There have been school shootings in Russia before the recent and referent 'invasion' of Ukraine.
It may be, the event is one that can be classed as a local based situation with emotions and local community constructs involved. The gunman was evidently a former student there. He is now said to be in his early 30s. Also it is reported the suspect was registered with a neurological facility.
Eyes off Moscow for a moment, may be one of the impacts of the incident.
Wearing a Nazi shirt, does it have anything to do with the incident, or was it just a random shirt that was gotten a hold of? Was it a swastika pure and simple separate not necessarily tied to Nazi or associated isms? In far-reach theory study, just about everything and anything can eventually be connected to an incident.
Mitigation of incident information gained that can be put to use everywhere, is that seemingly less harmful guns were 'converted' to more powerful guns, by the suspect.
Right now, many are asking, what was the incident about?
There are potentially other angles in dealing with the tragedy. While Russia continues the bombardment of Ukraine, diverting needed attention from domestic concerns of countries that want to help mitigate the crisis, other countries have to continue to contend with school shootings at an alarming frequency. Reducing those shootings is not made any easier while trying to tend to the Russia-Ukraine situation. This incident in Izhevsk, is by fact itself a reminder of what others undergo.
Foremost is the condolences to those who have lost close ones in the incident.
