Columbine 2.0: A Tyler Clementi Kills TL

Hello users. This timeline was made based on an idea I had regarding the suicide of Tyler Clementi. Clementi's suicide due to enduring cyberbullying for being gay received widespread coverage across the country and resulted in stricter bullying laws across the country being passed due to the atrocities of Dharun Ravi, Clementi's bully. I thought to myself how things might have gone had Clementi not killed himself, but instead gotten revenge on his bully for his actions, along with several other members of Rutgers. Basically, Clementi commits the atrocities the Columbine Shooters did but far worse and he does not kill himself in the end. Here this goes:

September 20th, 2010: Rutgers Freshman Tyler Clementi is horrified to discover that his roomate Dharun Ravi had secretly filmed his sexual activities with another man. Clementi is heard remarking to a friend later that day: "I can't believe he did something that fucked up."

September 21st, 2010: News of Clementi's encounter breaks loose across campus. Clementi becomes the butt of derogatory gay jokes and is harassed by several friends of Ravi's. Clementi allegedly tries to switch rooms, but is told the process will take several weeks.

September 23rd, 2010: After an incident in which another student vanadalized several of Clementi's notebooks with homophobic slurs, Clementi snaps and tells the same friend: "I'm done with this fucking shit. Done with it."

September 25th, 2010: Clementi disappears off campus for much of the day, with Ravi noting his long absence, giving Clementi's introverted tendencies. Ravi notes to a friend that Clementi seems "more distant than usual".

September 26th, 2010: Ravi notices Clementi has several bags which are locked inside a box with a very complicated security code. He doesn't think much of this, believing it's just a quirk of Clementi's. While Ravi leaves for the night, Clementi begins unloading the contents across the campus....

September 27th, 2010: At 8:34 A.M EST, Clementi awakes from his sleep and unloads the final item in his bag: a loaded shotgun. He then presses the gun against Ravi's head and shoots him, killing Ravi instantly. As several other students are alerted to the loud noise. Clementi quickly escapes from his dorm without being noticed. The second part of his plan is about to be unleashed....

At 8:49 AM, a large explosion is heard going off in Clementi's dorm and 103 students are instantly killed, with several others being critically injured. As Clementi rushes off campus, police surround the university and immediately arrest him.
 
Interesting start, though not sure if plausible. Would he have had the know-how to make such a big and effective bomb?

Anyone think gay rights would be set back a bit by this debacle? An angry gay slaughtering 104 college students certainly wouldn't inspire public sympathy.
