It is going to happen. One of these sad and abused children will strike back, this one almost had the chance:

The circumstances seem familiar, and yet this is probably not a gay child, just a tormented one. The American culture glorifies violence and that made an impression on this young mind.

We may encourage LBGT children with "It Gets Better" and the Trevor Project links for assistance, but what do ordinary kids have?

This boy felt no love in his life, or at least no recourse to the bullying he received. Now he will be labeled a criminal and yet his actions to date are little more than a cry for help.

Too many unanswered questions: How did he obtain the weapons? Did he ever speak to school officials about the hatred he endured? We all know what happens when an animal is cornered, they fight back. The lives of many were spared in time, but to what end? This child's life is ruined, how eternally sad.
