The storyline is nonsensical. Protagonists - not characters, since there's no real attempt at characterisation - appear and disappear at random. Why would the gunman do this? Why is the other cheerleader involved? Why did you bother?
these criminal acts committed against others so easily and all these angry vindictive people
This is the worst example of 'deus ex machina' I've seen on this site. It's too bad because there seemed to be elements here that could have been part of a pretty good story. As it is I agree with the other readers--it makes no sense.
