A video the Mass murderer sent to CNN has been posted on their homepage.


After watching the video, He didn't seem to do it just because he thought his girlfriend was cheating on him. It sounded to me like he did it due to the fact that the community today is so overwhelmed in their high tech devices, there cars, there possessions, as to caring more about their lives, and what we should be thankful for. He talked about how no one has "EVER" felt an ounce of a pain in their lives. He said Jesus was crucified, and torture for people's own pleasure.

He didn't do this to get attention so to speak, I think he did it because he was sick of the way us Americans act today. We don't really pay attention to what we have, we just want more, and more, worthless junk, that has no sentimental value. to me all what he said shouldn't have given him the right to shoot innocent victims and taking their lives. I'm sure God didn't want to teach us a lesson this way.


Here's a list of all the victims who lost their lives: CLICK

I seem to remember that as well. All kidding aside there is something missing from that first quote. It was the largest mass killing in US history with a gun. The 9/11 attacks were the largest mass killing in US (and I think) world history.

I've heard that our good friend Fred Phelps is planning on picketing the Virgina Tech Funerals. Just like gun banners this blood belching ****** follows on the heels of tragedy. As if spewing hate and bile at the families of fallen troops was not bad enough! [V]

^ You must be getting quite a few bomb threats if you've been kept out of school long enough to prevent you from learning basic English skills.

Well that was bound to happen sooner or later. Though schools do need to take a measure against it they also need to know who has one. Dont ask me why but I feel many schools will soon allow students to carry some kind of weapon for the next few months/years.

I think the idea of professors carrying guns is a good idea. Maybe not every student, though.

speak of the devil, I'm down at VTech right now. we were celebrating my brother's 21st birthday today. it's good to see that a lot of people here are getting back to normal, and if not, they're at least back in their old routine.

on the way down here, we passed James Madison Uni and they had a "Friends at VTech" sign up on the outside of a building for people on the highway to see. there has been a ton of charity going towards the school. the Rescue Squad has gotten crates full of food and supplies from random people and organizations over the past 2 weeks. in fact, 2 hours after the shooting began, a local sub shop closed down and starting making free sandwiches for all the people on duty during the shooting. also, the new regal theaters that were supposed to be open by now delayed their grand opening but are giving all tech students free admission to a movie and concessions. there's a ton going on down here.

nothing like making a great marketing scheme out of a tragedy for them.
