Why are people doing this, knowing people have died because of this?
- Mental illness is my guess.
  
  Edit - when I was growing up (not here) I knew some very bad kids and this would have been way, way outside their zone for vandalism or violence. That's why I don't think it's just random tiktok juvenile delinquency.
  
  Some people are just pieces of shit. In fact, a lot of people are. The last 5 years should have shown you that, if nothing else.
  
  We can’t keep using mental illness as an excuse for bad behaviour.
