(Just for the record, I have no problem with what went on in this hoax, just trying to draw a comparison.)

A shooting staged at the school plays on the safety that one feels in school. If they were to stage something like that I'd probably agree it's over the line.
The difference is that school is supposed to feel and be safe.
Seeing carnage from a wreck is very effective to remind people that bad things happen.
