LACKSBURG, Va. - A memorial to gunman Seung-Hui Cho that was mysteriously added to the row of 32 stones on the main campus lawn at Virginia Tech was removed this week, then restored by Wednesday morning.

Student organization Hokies United put 32 "Hokie Stones" — of local limestone used in university buildings — in a semicircle in front of the administration building to honor the 27 students and five faculty members Cho killed April 16. The 33rd stone appeared later in the week.

The guns were the perps, not Cho.

Everybody knows that.

He does not deserve to be remembered with the others.

A memorial to gunman Seung-Hui Cho that was mysteriously added...

Well let's hope it's not-so-mysteriously deleted.

Apparently someone finds it acceptable to honor a coldblooded, evil murderer.

If I were a Virginia Tech student, I would be pretty angry about this.

I can’t wait to see the Cho T-shirts popping up in protest marches. The Che T-shirts are getting dirty by now. ;-)

Cho should definitely have a memorial, but that is the wrong location.

They should do a little surveillance and find out who is mistakenly putting the Cho memorial stone next to the memorial stones designated for humans.

Then they should take the Cho memorial stone and place it where it actually belongs - inside the guy who keeps putting it in the wrong place.

It doesn't really matter how it gets inside.

A cinder would be an appropriate memorial stone for Cho.

/begin sarcasm/  Oh how touch feely it is to honor a serial killer.  He was such a good boy. /end sarcasm/   The U.S. has now been officially pussified.

Well when you mix Che and Ho (as in Chi Minh, not Don Imus), guess what you get?

It’s a typical liberal trick.

They tried that in Colorado as well. A couple of the fathers took care of the two memorial trees for the shooters (note the liberal media spin ‘families’ instead of ending it with gunmen):

Parents Ax Memorial Trees
(CBS) The fathers of two Columbine High School shooting victims chopped down two of 15 memorial trees to protest the inclusion of the gunmen’s families.

The libs are in a tizzy now. They have to make Cho into a victim somehow.

They just can’t accept the idea of pure evil (unless there is a Republican involved.)

This has to be Bush’s fault somehow. They know it.

Throw the 33rd stone into the furnace.

A more befitting memorial to Cho would be a porcelain toilet seat that represents his wasted life.

Yeah. What REALLY got them going was Rush Limbaugh saying that Cho must have been a liberal.

Fortunately for Rush, he can make a logical case for his argument, otherwise they would be calling for him to resign.

The sweet thing about that is...the Liberals know it.
