does the virginia tech shooting incident shows the real situation regarding racism in an american community.?

Question

..it is clearly evident that the feeling of being different and not accepted in his community creates the so called "rage" that results in that shooting, this is clearly racism.

Answer 1

I think its not racism per se.For me the Virginia shooting incident.Is a result of man not being able to adapt and survive in a new environment.I think I really pity that guy,coz I myself am not a popular guy.I belong to the so called members of the bowels of the society ( in my university).Yeah its hard living unnoticed and recognition is nil,but thats life...Its hard but atleast its real

Answer 2

I think you're off the mark with the racism comment, Sharpton, but cultural or class discrimination or segragation, sounds more true. That doesn't have a color or ethnicity. When it comes down to it, humans are humans, and all infants I've seen, can be teased, made fun of, and bullied, then they grow up. We have turned our backs, (or maybe the other cheek) for too long, these things are not only going to happen, but they'll become more frequent. The ever widening gap between the rich and the poor of America is going to be her downfall unless some people wake up, what else can be said?

Answer 3

Is is not racism. He has shot even asians, which explains that the guy was raged over something and not a race.
But I don't blame the VTech students either. We have heard from his roomate that, the roomate has tried to be friendly to him but with no success. So I don't think the killer was being alienated, I assume he has some kind of woman problem, as the shooting starts with a fight that started in an argument with a VTech female student

Answer 4

He might have also thought the people around him were racist, but that is only a reflection of his mental instability. Mental illness makes its sufferers believe many things that are not true. Even if he had encountered genuine racism in his life, his serious mental instability would have exaggerated it beyond it's actual effect on his life. Listen carefully to the many unreasonable acts he committed, not just that day, but for most of his lifetime, and you will understand he did not have good mental health, and even when offered an opportunity to improve his mental health, he may well have thought that he was being persecuted unfairly by others.

Answer 5

I lived in Korea for 9 years and that i realize it is not indicative of the Korean human beings. i grew to become into additionally married to a Korean for 23 years and, so I even have very own expertise. One shouldn't sense any diverse if it have been a white or black who did this, so why think of in yet in a various way because of the fact it grew to become right into a Korean..or the different race.

Answer 6

Because there are many alternate explanations for the young Korean Man's behavior, I don't think you can realistically infer that racism was the root cause. Sometimes people place blame externally when they are unable to accept the true cause of their misfortune.

Answer 7

No, this wasn't about racism. It was about somebody who had serious mental problems and it was only a matter of time before he lost it. I think that most of us feel "different" and/or unaccepted at one time or another, but we don't do what he did. Trying to make it a racist issue is wrong, he was very random and unbiased in his killing spree.

Answer 8

whatever racism did not play a role. get a life

Answer 9

It's not racism at all. Check your facts, then check your reality.

Answer 10

You do know that he shot Asians and coloured people too, don't you?
