Wow, I just saw that on The Smoking Gun site myself.
Nice find TSG.
He was one sick puppy.
Maybe Cho was sexually abused too. He certainly covered all the other “most likely to go psycho” bases.
I wrote a short story about suicide back in the 5th grade that was better this. Not sick, just emotional (made my teacher cry!).
Of course, if it was today I would have been sent to the shrink to get my head examined.
You're right in saying he was one sick puppy. You're wrong in assuming his play in any way demonstrates that. Writers regularly go to places in their stories that have nothing to do with who they are or what they personally believe.
PS - I've published a short story about a deranged girl who goes on a killing rampage after years of sexual abuse. Guess what? I've never been abused and I've never had the urge to slaughter people.
ping for later read - thx for the post.
