A court in China has sentenced a man to death for killing 35 people last month by driving into a crowd, in an attack that raised national concern about mass killings.

Fan Weiqiu was venting his anger because he was unhappy with his divorce settlement, the court in the southern city of Zhuhai said in handing down the sentence on Friday. The victims were exercising at a sports centre at the time of the attack. Fan pleaded guilty to endangering public safety by dangerous means, a court statement said.

Dude allegedly did this because of... marriage issues?

Bro go find some government official and do something (🗡) about them, not random people in the street.

In my country couple of weeks ago a guy ordered a hit on his ex girlfriend’s store. The store blew up and collapsed including the several apartments above it. Six unrelated people died. A kid survived, he lost his parents and sister.

Some men need to stay single forever and never get into a relationship.

But not being in a relationship is what causes them to do these things...
