Was the gun man at the VA. Tech massacre Chinese ?

Question

or is it just a bad rumor ?

Answer 1

What does it matter what race he was he was still a monster of the worse kind and those come in all races

Answer 2

a million. he's South Korean, genius. he's SOUTH KOREAN, ok? no longer chinese language, no longer Vietnamese, no longer eastern, yet South Korean. 2. i'm rather confident, that buying a device gun might truthfully be suspicious. device weapons, rifles, or any type of heavy firearm is prohibited for citizen use. Handguns, and particular shotguns are allowed for criminal use. Rifles for searching... rather confident he ought to've gotten them, even though it in all danger could have been quicker for him to apply a handgun. And uh, i'm chinese language, yet no longer from China. and that i'm no longer out to kill anybody. i will take the document button please... And harmless? Oh, pal, you will desire to be somewhat moist in the back of the ears there. in case you're below 30, stay for some extra years, then come talk. in case you're 30 or over, go get some help on the insane asylum or something.

Answer 3

One of the students said he was Asian.
As for the ones who keep asking why do you care and so on.... They all ways state the race. They had little to identify him by. Just like stating it was a male not a female. It gives you an idea of the person. We are in the United States. We have many races here.

Answer 4

I just heard the same thing on TV. Here's a story on Yahoo:
..."was a Chinese man who arrived in the United States last year on a student visa."

http://www.suntimes.com/news/nation/343354,vatech041607.article

Why don't the politicians freaking stop immigration and student visas for awhile? It's clear, even from this site, that the nonAmerican world is hostile and hateful.

Does it matter that some Chinese citizen was allowed into our country and in less than a year killed 30+ of our students? Yes, it does. How old are you people?

And to you "etc" idiot, how many Americans have been murdered in the last decade by nonAmericans who have been let into our country? In case you haven't noticed, the nonAmerican world will tell you happily how much they hate Americans. (I could have sworn I saw a post by "etc", but it's gone. Sorry.)

Answer 5

I heard that he was chinese and he was an exchange student that had been in the us for about a year...but you know how first reports are, he may turn out to be someone else.

Answer 6

Eyewitnesses described the gunman as an Asian male about 6 feet tall. He apparently shot himself in the head after the killings; part of his face was missing when his body was found.
http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=3045574&page=1

He was said to have quarrelled in a dormitory with his girlfriend, whom he believed had been seeing another man. A student adviser was called to sort out the row. But the killer produced a gun and shot dead both his girlfriend and the adviser.

The second shooting was at Norris Hall. Two hours later he rampaged through an engineering building on the other side of the campus in the town of Blacksburg, killing indiscriminately.

The gunman has been identified as a Chinese man who arrived in the United States last year on a student visa. The 24-year-old man arrived in San Francisco on United Airlines on Aug. 7 on a visa issued in Shanghai

The shooter wore bluejeans, a blue jacket and a vest holding ammunition, witnesses said. He carried a 9mm semiautomatic and a .22-caliber handgun, both with the serial numbers obliterated, federal law enforcement officials said. Witnesses described the shooter as a young man of Asian descent -- a silent killer who was calm and showed no expression as he pursued and shot his victims. He killed himself as police closed in.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/16/AR2007041600533_pf.html

He had ammunition strapped across his chest as he calmly walked from room to room refilling his two 9mm handguns as he shot students.

He locked the doors of several classrooms to stop anyone escaping. Some terrified students jumped for their lives from fourthfloor windows, while others used desks to barricade doors.

The number of dead is almost twice as high as the previous record for a mass shooting on an American college campus. That took place at the University of Texas at Austin on Aug. 1, 1966, when a gunman named Charles Whitman opened fire from the 28th floor of a campus tower. Whitman killed 16 and injured 31.

It is a horrible, horrible tragedy but it time, it will fade from public view. Only those who have suffered a personal loss will be faced with the struggle to overcome their grief and restructure their life.

After the reports have been filed, the investigations have been completed and the recommendations made, people will calm down and feel secure, then complacent.

Because of my personal experience, I favor allowing individuals to carry concealed weapons if they have had training and have not had a felony conviction. Most of the people in the self-help group Parents of Murdered Children have strong feelings about this issue as well as Citizens against Homicide. (Members of both national groups have suffered the loss of a loved one to homicide) Compassionate Friends is also a self-help group however it is for parents who have lost a child to any cause homicide, accidental death or disease.
