await spontaneous street demonstrations of US citizens marching and near-rioting, The NEA and the mass media have done their work in successfully brainwashing America into believing that “Diversity is Strength” is real and logical thought.
Orwell may be rolling over in his grave, but the only outrage you are going to hear from the controlled people of this nation will be against gun ownership and the 2nd amendment.

I don’t have any idea about the girlfriend or how it relates to the timeline of purchasing the gun as of this reply, sorry.

I missed thatthere was a note? From what I understand, when he left the first shooting scene, and wandered away, he strolled over to his dorm room area, reloaded, did whatever, and left a note behind.
I can't imagine why they would withhold information on the note, if there was only one shooter, and he's dead.

Thanks, there is a post up now about a note, for those who are interested.

I agree that the PRC angle is probably wholly bogus, OR that a passport check showed that his “last entry” was on a flight from Shanghai (as orginally reported) after just vacationing or visiting China. Vast numbers of americans, of whatever ancestry, now do that.

Cho has the words ‘Ismial Ax’ written on the inside of his arm. Does anyone know what that means? I googled it and come up with nothing.

I just heard on Fox that the letter he left included a name....something like, “Islam X”...didn’t quite hear it and then it was over.

Not to discount the tragic shooting deaths of 30+ people, but the media frenzy has caused me to put that number of deaths into perspective. Why doesn't the media focus as much attention on the annual number of auto fatalities? Would you care to guess how many people die on our highways every year? I found a document on the national Department of Transporation website at: http://www.dot.gov/affairs/nhtsa1200.htm which provides the answer for the year of 1999. "The total number of people killed was down slightly from 41,471 in 1998 to 41,345 in 1999". That averages 113 people per day, every day! Where is the outrage over that? Where are the headlines? Where is the call to ban automobiles? The media agenda is obvious.

Chicago Tribune is writing the following:
“The note included a rambling list of grievances, according to sources. Cho had shown recent signs of violent, aberrant behavior, according to an investigative source, including setting a fire in a dorm room and allegedly stalking some women.
A note believed to have been written by Cho was found in his dorm room that railed against rich kids, debauchery and deceitful charlatans on campus.
The English major from Centreville, Va., a rapidly growing suburb of Washington, D.C., came to the United States in 1992, an investigative source said. He was a legal permanent resident.
His family runs a dry cleaning business and he has a sister who graduated from Princeton University.”

Have you heard any details about the supposed note he had in his backpack. I read on another thread that it was signed ‘Ismael X’ but there weren’t any other details.

Who the hell carries around purchase receipts in a backpack? Those of us who just shove our receipts into the black holes known as "purses" have had YEARS-old receipts swim to the top.

Interesting. If true, I can now see why they are witholding contents of the note. This won't go over well.
