“......the VTech students are presenting themselves as admirable young adults.”
They certainly are! If it were under other circumstances, each and every one I’ve heard would contribute positively to a recruitment ad for the university.
I understand what you’re saying about Shep’s reference, but I do believe he said it out of respect and concern.

Cho Seung Hui
English major. Harper Hall.
ABC News reports “a disturbing note” was left behind.
Confirmed, both shootings were related!
Same weapons - both buildings...
What an awful story. Glad your son and his bus was found. The man should have been fired—and he’s DoEd? Disgusting!
Chief Podunk,
New Information,
Identity
23 year old Korean here as a resident alien.
Lived in Harper Hall.
.22 cal and 9 mm recoved.
ATF, guns used in both shootings.
One of the guns was used in both of the shootings.
“Sure, it COULD have been pre-meditated, but I don’t think it is unbelievable that he was just a nut who wanted to get his ex-girlfriend.”
It COULD have been premeditated??? It WAS Premeditated..
And the Chains and Locks were just an idea out of the blue? Not to mention his bullet proof vest, No id documentation on his person, erasing the guns id numbers and blowing off his face..
You can stick with your (could have been premeditated arguement if you want). Others are not so willing to drink from the spin basket and just take what they feed us as the truth. Ask the important questions of why he had it all set up and planned out, or why is a visa student allowed to buy ammo and weapons in the USA, while our govt officials are trying to limit legal americans from protecting themselves.
Chief up
New info:
Kudos for all (gimmee a freeking break!)
ID confirmed: Jo san Whee 23 yr So Lorean, res alien
student
lived on campus
9 mm & 22 recovered
ballistic tests show one of 2 weapons was used in both shooting
all deceased transported
names released when all ID and next of kin notified
POI: knew female victim (dorm), stopped and questioned, while interviewing, other shooting started
bomb threats not tied to yesterday
No known connection to bomb threats...
I remember President Clinton at the OK City bombing. It was all about him. I wish the President would not attend, but send a message and announce he would come to the campus later for a more private visit.
Sounds like the gun dealer on that forum who said he was being questioned by ATF about selling a gun to Cho really was telling the truth....
One story said his girlfriend a the RA, another said it was his girlfriend’s ROOMMATE and the RA.
I don;t know which, if either, are correct. We will know eventually, if the media is still covering the story when the truth is finally known. In the meantime half of what we have “learned” hasn’t been correct, and the truth is getting harder to keep track of with every knew “story” that turns out to be unwarranted rumor.
Cho Seung Hui
Yep. Just heard it from the Press conference.
