I am sick of people concentrating more on how sorry they are for Cho! "He was troubled....people picked on him...he was a 'victim' of bullies..." well you know what? There are many kids out there and adults that get picked on everyday that dont buy gun and shoot random people purely for the sake of retalitation. Another point is, Cho wasnt even OPEN to other people's affections. He refused to talk to others, he closed himself out to other people's conversations, and he basically didnt ACCEPT the help that was offered.
So I dont want to read anymore of this bull$hit that some people display because frankly, we need to spend more time praying and sympathizing for the victims and their families, NOT for the murderer.

He was a monster in that he turned his rage into lethal violence. He's not the first or the last. The 'sympathy' for him that you rail against is the public trying to figure out why this keeps happening. What makes a person become a monster? It is not just once, but at least a dozen school massacres in this decade alone. It's becoming a problem that we all need to analyze. If we just chalk Cho and everyone else that commited these horrible acts as 'monsters', and analyze it no further, then we cannot understand how this can be prevented. You must be a Bush supporter. de-de-de

I'm praying for both the victims and victims' families AND Cho and Cho's family. I don't think we should focus solely on one side of the rope - this is a tragedy, and everyone deserves to be prayed for. I think it's sad and terrible what Seung-Hui Cho did, but I also think we should forgive him.

Here's some interesting information for you, from the other side of the Pacific Ocean. I'm sorry it's somewhat long, but it's informative.

A little background about some information concerning Korean people -

Months ago the Korean people expressed high praise that the black-American person named Heinz Ward made the winning catch for his team to win the Superbowl.

Many years ago, Heinz Ward was born in South Korea, to a Korean mother who married a black American. Being a homogenous society, the Korean people shunned both the boy and his mother; among the names Heinz Ward was called was half-breed. The mother eventually immigrated to the United States with her son Heinz. The U.S.A. was a better place for Heinz to grow up without the prejudice that South Koreans demonstrated towards him and his mother.

Suddenly, Heinz Ward is in the spotlight for making the winning catch, winning the Superbowl. Also suddenly, Heinz’s Korean ethnicity came out that he was also a Korean. Needless to say, the Korean people instantly “adopted” Heinz as one of their own, a “Korean” person.

What is not well-known is this: during their trip back to South Korea when Heinz Ward was making a publicity tour, his mother was at the orphanage for unwanted children; the same orphanage where Heinz spent his young life before immigrating to the United States. A young girl told Heinz’s mother how difficult it is being a “half-breed” black-Korean person living in South Korea. Heinz’s mother pulled a $100 Bill from her purse and gave it to the young girl; she told the girl, “take this money, buy books to study and learn. When you’re old enough, get out of South Korea and immigrate to the United States where you’ll be accepted for who you are.” This story appeared in only one English-speaking newspaper, although other English-speaking newspapers were also present at the orphanage visit.

Shortly after, a Korean-American Golfer, Michelle Wie (American citizen, born in the United States), won a big Golfing Tournament.

Needless to say, once again, the South Korean people were saying she is “Korean,” neglecting to mention her American citizenship.

Now, here is where truth is bent, to the advantage of the Korean people.

The guy at Virginia Tech, named Cho, a Korean citizen (no U.S. citizenship) who immigrated to the United States with his parents, murders 32 people. Many South Korean people, including the South Korean President, express their shock and sorrow that this happens.

Now, the (unknown and not-well reported outside the U.S.) flip-side story about Korean people using Korean-ness to their advantage.

Korean news has been showing on the news that Cho IS NOT KOREAN, since he has been living in the United States for about 10 years since his family immigrated to the U.S. This fact in itself, for many Korean people, automatically makes Cho an American citizen, even though Cho never received any American citizenship.

Therefore, the reasoning is that because Cho immigrated to the United States, a Korean citizen did not commit the VT murders, but an American citizen.

Just some examples of the numerous “two-face” facts about South Korean people.

But, please do not judge all Korean people by a few.

I havent seen anybody saying they feel sorry for Cho. Seems to me you are seeing whatever you want to see. But I can't figure how you got that warped.

BTW I just saw where two guys were shot in Houston, I bet theres already more folks shot in the US since Cho's outbreak than he shot.

Time to do something about handguns.

Please remeber Jesus prayed on the cross, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do"
If our Savior can forgive His own murderers, how can we not forgive Cho.
"lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil" How awful that someone is so sad that they cannot reach out a hand when it is offered. Let pray the next person who is"picked on every day" doesn't feel this hopeless, but it may happen again tomorrow if we continue to lash out with heartless comments.

Yeah, well hating Cho is not going to bring any of his victims back, and frankly, I'm tired of reading questions that bash him. All it does is create hate. Leave the issue of Cho alone and just pray for the families. Your negetive emotions can't fix anything.

Cho was dangerously mentally ill. I do not under any circumstance excuse what he did. I hate what he did, but in truth, I pity the poor loser, and I'm shocked that shocked that "society" didn't pick up on the fact that he was so screwed up in the head and intervene more forcefully - it might have saved lives.

i agree completely. the school even tried to get him in to counseling because of his twised stories. you're absolutely right, people do get picked on every day and don't retaliate threw murder. more or less, he was a pu$$y, because what man would go that route and murder a bunch of innocent people? he had some clear mental problems, and i think that all students records should be checked for physciatric problems. i feel horrible for the victims and their familys, none of them deserved that

i feel sorry for the whole sad mess. i apologize to you that i don't want to be angry at cho, or that i do feel sorry for him. i just can't help thinking that travesties like this happen because of how lost some people can be and how random acts of violence are so taken for granted now adays.

Actually, I believe he killed 32 people, 33 if you count himself.

I feel bad for his victims and a bit for him. I mean, it's never good to be teased and tortured, so in that respect, I feel bad for him and anyone who's been mistreated in such a way. Of course I feel infinitely worse about the people he mercilessly slaughtered.
