That. Is insane.

Jesus Christ. That is horrifying.

Jesus, that's horrific.

I’ve got no problem with someone offing themselves in a solo act if that’s really what they want to do, but killing multiple innocent people just going about their daily business is utterly abhorrent.

WTF?

Possibly a suicide bomber but without explosives? If so, a nasty development indeed, as there would be no clues to intent beforehand - anyone can obtain a gallon of petrol and a cigarette lighter without arousing suspicion.

Just after 6pm on a commuter bus, it was most likely packed with people going home

It can't be anything else than a deliberate attempt to harm others

The question is why ?

Hopefully we'll get an honest answer

WTAF?!
I imagine burning alive is possibly the most painful ways to die. If you want to off yourself that way, go do it in solitary and let someone clean up the ash pile. To subject other innocent people to this is demonic

It is most painful indeed.... I have only seen on body of a suicide by fire and it was quite, well, unpleasant. The mouth was stuck open too with inside the throat burnt badly too. Really not a pleasant way to go, to subject others to it is just unbelievable.

I really, really hope we find out why this happened.
