Image:Andrew and Nellie Kehoe.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Does the article not state the manner of his death (murder-suicide?) or am I'm blind? Trigaranus (talk) 18:03, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
CORRECTION NEEDED This article should not be linked to the 2004 rampage in colorado. What this guy did is nearly infinitly more wrong. William —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.168.104.164 (talk) 01:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
was he insane? he killed over 40 people cause of taxes? he has issues, and unfortuetly, that cost many a people thier lives unsigned comment added by 71.168.104.164 (talk) 01:40, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
One can only speculate, as to the reason for Kehoe's actions. I would guess it had nothing to do with taxes. He had financial resources. He simply chose to stop paying his mortgage. That appears to be just one part of a larger plan. When he killed his wife and destroyed his house, he also destroyed his fences, livestock, equipment, and shade trees. As if he wanted to leave nothing of value behind, for the mortgage company or anyone else. Highly intelligent, but petulant, Kehoe planned his actions for many months. The trigger may have been his election defeat. Rejection and humiliation. This looks like an act of revenge against the whole town (by killing their children). I would be surprised if he was "insane". Perhaps something more like a personality disorder. Gulbenk (talk) 23:13, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
At the end of the first section, it states that Kehoe was the first suicide bomber in history. But this article has a few earlier examples of suicide bombings:

Maybe that should be removed from the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.209.99.217 (talk) 00:42, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
The article says "his mother died when he was five" but the info box on the right says she lived from 1835 to 1890, which would make him 18 years old at the time of her death. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kadmium (talk • contribs) 09:23, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
The details of his stepmother's death are also somewhat suspect. The article states that she died when Andrew was aged 14, which would be circa 1886. However, Find A Grave notes that Philip Kehoe had three wives: the first died in 1861, eleven years before Andrew was born, the second was Mary, Andrew's mother d.1890, and the third is listed as Francis Murphy-Wilder Kehoe (1859 - 1911). That would imply that his stepmother died when Andrew was infact 39. It's possible that Philip Kehoe had another wife in between Mary and Francis who is simply not listed on Find A Grave, but there are definitely some dating issues going on here. --Wulfran85 (talk) 12:29, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
I didn't put that template down but I figured that I should start a discussion as it's suggested that this article be merged with Bath school disaster.--82.19.19.125 (talk) 16:48, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
I really have to disagree. The Bath School Disaster is one of the most high profile attacks on a school in US history. Kehoe also has a important enough backstory. I really think it's better to leave it the way it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Graylandertagger (talk • contribs) 23:04, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
Ear Hustle 411, did an article that featured a more detailed photo of Andrew Kehoe. I'm not sure whether or not it's worth using it instead.

This edit by IP editor 70.210.133.185 restored recent changes by 2606:a000:ed02:a200:90f9:6c06:4753:ff11 in content that had been reverted. Regardless of what we editors might think, the source does not state that Kehoe himself detonated the dynamite/pyrotol in his truck. The source says the explosives went off during the struggle between Huyck and Kehoe. Let's discuss etc. Shearonink (talk) 15:22, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
The information was added several months ago but in my opinion the fatalities in the infobox should be reserved for human deaths but let's discuss and come to a consensus. Shearonink (talk) 02:42, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
