According to the following article
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070419/ap_on_re_us/virginia_tech_shooting
But hey libs, this doesn't justify mass murder on the scale that occured, at least conservatives are smart enough to realize this.

I guess you're trying to be satirical or funny ...
shame that if anything similar happened to anyone you love, someone would be on here just like you and you would be complaining...
I really think if you are not joking then you need to learn to read and analyse what you read bettre, and if you are joking, then you are sick.

I don't see why so many are jumping down your throat on this... the people asking if YOU read the article, I'd ask them THEY read it. The article starts with four paragraphs portraying him as someone ostricized by others, not by his own doing, using prases like "shyness" and "strange ways", and about how "the teacher threatened him" and "the whole class started laughing and pointing". I can see what you are saying. It's not until paragrph five do they clarify any of the information as items being compiled as part of a psycological profile. I think it gets more balanced out as you read the whole article, and I think it stops short of justification for the killings, but I agree the lead-in was soft, at best, considering the whack-job we're finding out he was.

I think you are massively generalizing,
I don't have any compassion for that selfish, evil f&*ker.
If he didn't shoot himself, which is what he deserved,
and he was caught,
I'd say he definately would be one of those who deserved the death penalty.
Edit:
...and although it is very sad that kids get picked on,
GET IN LINE.....I was a very sensative kid and sometimes picked on when I was small,
So were LOTS of kids,
I wonder how much Bill Gates was made fun of???? And other nerdy, outcasts and different kids,
they don't go on mass killing rampages!
I think , well, I hope that there is enough awareness now about bullying that school officials definately are starting to take it seriously. There should be a no tolerance rule of bullying in all schools,
but that still doesn't justify the homicidal tendencies.

every time you read about people like Cho that kill others, they seem to have one thing in common. They were bullied as kids. That is not a justification for killing. And NO liberal said it was justified. Don't be a moron.
While many of you are against political correctness for what ever reason, NOT bullying someone is political correctness. I'll bet that every single one of the parents of those dead kids wished that Cho had not been bullied as a child. We talk about problems with our society., well bullying others is a big problem. and a costly one.

This has nothing to do with the ongoing Liberal/Conservative debate. Nor does it have anything to do with the serious issue of bullying.
Surprisingly, it also has nothing to do with the availability of guns.
This has to do with a culture of violence and fear and hate, and the images we instill in our kids. Death in the media, in the movies, the comics, the music, the games. Death and more death. Sooner or later, some psychotics will act on it.
And it will keep happening until we stop pretending to be Christian, and actually display some Christianity.

That is a rumor. Reliable news sources have said that he was stalking woman but no one has linked the two at this time. The RA was shot trying to see if he could help (I guess they were arguing or giving some indication that the situation was odd). At this time no motive is known. We may never have a true answer to that.

The article is alluding to the fact that because the shooter was tormented, his past may have cause to the present effect.
Nobody is defending what happened....just pointing out that a combination of neurological malfunction plus teasing and torment equaled what happened. Not an excuse, just a theory as to "WHY".
Okay?

I read the artical you posted and all I saw was someone giving an opinion about why he might of done it. I didn't see anyone saying it was justified. This must be how Fox does its reporting as well.

I really didnt get that out of the artical either. But ill tell you this. I am sure there are those on the left that are twiting themselves into knots to try and make this everyone elses fault but the shooter. I marvel at how good liberals are at creating victims in all of us. Cynical I know but its the truth. No one is ever responsible for their own actions.

That isn't what the article says, even words are dangerous in the hands of a conservative.
