Virginia Tech Massacre

[Ostinato]

Was there a motive?

It was on the news he was "jilted" and his girlfriend left him for another guy. Apparently they 2 were the first people he killed before continuing his massacre.

cheers for the info dave and the columbia one was the ne i saw a program about, sick buggers

[RedStratocas]

wasnt there a previous incident like this

About a million, yeah. We've got some shooting problems over here.

Its not the University's fault. You can blame the police, but the University isnt a safety institution. They should have been told what to do by police, and they werent. If they were, the police certainly gave them bad commands.

What kills me is the 2 hour gap between the shootings. What the hell happened there? You know what you do when there's a shooting? Look for the shooter! 2 hours?! I have no idea what they were thinking there. They might have been as incompitent as the Columbine incident's police force.

The guy was a 23 year old South Korean who wrote a note:

A note believed to have been written by Cho was found in his dorm room that railed against "rich kids," "debauchery" and "deceitful charlatans" on campus.

I would like to squeeze this guy and yell "grow up" as loud as I can into his ear.

Lol people watch the news but basicly wot happened was:
Some chinese asian guy they say had some trouble with love life or w/e and he was actually a student there and in the morning he woke up and with a handgun he purchased a week ago he went and shot someone.. i think it was someone he hated or sumin but a teacher came so he shot the teacher aswell and he they died.. that was the 2ppl who died at the beginning. Then the police decided the situation was under control and there was no need for an evacuation and let lessons continue.. but 2hours later he went back and just went on a killing spree... one story i heard on the news was:
He went in and show the majourity of the students in the class, he then went and some of the students slammed the door shut, but then he came back and shot EVERYONE then he went but one girl managed to wedge herself so he couldn't come back in but he still tried, even shooting at the door.
also a film was taken with a phone and all you can hear is gun shots... and imagine each one was someone getting shot.. Bah! must be horibbly scary... especially the story i said.. how sick.. and what a wimp to kill himself.

I didnt hear anything about a girlfriend, because they're having a lot of trouble finding information about the guy. He was a loner. I dont think he had a girlfriend.

Well they originally thought it was something to do with his love life as they said when he was in one of the dorms he kept asking for a certain girl..

[le harry]

Yeah, he was jealous because his girlfriend had left him. He shot his girlfriend then the black teacher walked in on it & he shot him because he saw it. The two shootings were atlwast 500metres away from each other, different sides of the campus. How could you not find him? They said the campus was massive though, so I don't know.

They cancel classes here if theres an inch of snow.
Theres a shooting with 2people dead but dont worry no need to cancel school.

what the ****?

And yes i live in the states
