Shooting in a US university

[Tavish]

You have vandalized my heart, raped my soul and torched my conscience. You thought it was one pathetic boy’s life you were extinguishing. Thanks to you, I die like Jesus Christ, to inspire generations of the weak and the defenseless people.

He mailed a video manifesto to NBC in the two hours after shooting his first two victims and before going back in to kill another 30. - NBC Article

I think a lot of people are missing the point here... This wasn't about guns or schools or games... He was (aside from being deeply disturbed) frustrated with a society that so openly favours the rich.

Silly excuse. "Since there is a *possibility* that some psycho can attain guns illegally (granting the admittedly small chance for authorities to catch them), let make it REALLY EASY for them to get them *legally*!" You must be taking lessons from GWB.

Sounds like he needed a trip to north korea. *shakes head in shame*

OMG. So tired of this story I don't know where to begin. The fact that we are even discussing and analyzing HEAVILY EDITED videos that a man who mowed down rooms full of people. Chances are he's crazy. Then you try and make crazy enough safe (and -swear words-) to play on broadcast television. Fuck that. Just makes no sense at all. It's like trying to remove religion from a sermon.

Anyways my hatred spawns from the FOX news that is unbearably on 24/7 in the factory break room. I need a iPod-clone or PSP-clone for work.

PS. If anyone reads this and plans on doing this in the future. Don't cuss in your video or we won't get to see it kthx.

I dont get why he was sent to rehab and not to jail. I read on G4's Feed that he was a Counter Strike player.

Its such a shame. I was woken up by family phone calls telling me about this. Another pointless outtake on society.

Well that guy right now really got the attention he needed from the media, even if posthumous. So if his last resort was to draw attention, which I highly doubt it wasn t after watching and reading parts of what he sent to NBC, the question mark can be lifted and he will be known as Cho, the deadliest mass killer.

"NBC, the network favored by mass-murderers."

Can't wait to see NBC air those self-promos.

Just because people can aquire guns easily through illegalmeans doesnt mean everyone should be able to walk into k-mart and buy one for themselves and their kids. Maybe then the police can actually do their jobs and track down some of the illegal firearm merchants since they'll be more evident to find. Its not like EVERYONE is going to say lol lets go get a gun illegally if they cant buy one at the store.

The fact that guns are so easy to find is the main reason theres more gun deaths. Theres ALOT of proof to back this up. For example back during the port arthur massacre in Tasmania they slapped up some harsh gun laws. The following year the fatalities via guns went down 30%. They've dropped more and more every year. Australia is far safer today then it was 10 years ago. And we're supposedly a country filled with blood thirsty heartless criminals! Heres some more quotes-

In Canada, where new gun laws were introduced in 1991 and 1995, the number of gun deaths has reached a 30-year low.

Two years ago in the United Kingdom, civilian handguns were banned, bought back from their owners and destroyed. In the year following the law change, Scotland recorded a 17% drop in all firearm-related offences. The British Home Office reports that in the nine months following the handgun ban, firearm-related offences in England and Wales dropped by 13%.

A British citizen is still 50 times less likely to be a victim of gun homicide than an American.

At the end of the day I can give you more proof that anti-gun laws are safer for the communities in many countries then you can give me to disprove this. Even Canadians are showing you how a brain should be used. Yeah thats right. I said Canadians.

Canada doesn't have any brains because their milk comes in bags.
