The Finnish government ordered a day of nationwide mourning on Thursday, November 8, 2007, after a youth killed six students, the head teacher, and a nurse at his school before turning the gun on himself. Pekka-Eric Auvinen, 18, was known to support radical causes, and he carried out his massacre on Wednesday’s 90th anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution in Russia. Auvinen filmed a warning of his plan, which was placed on YouTube.
