.Thompson is saying this (the shooting) was a ‘body count’ game....for Cho to have pulled this off as he did, he had to have trained for it (via computer).

Jack Thompson is an alarmist with a HUGE axe to grind.

Anyone who believes that a shooting people with a game controller is even remotely equivalent to live fire with a pistol is grossly misinformed.

Yes, of course. But I was commenting on the posters mention of the "body count game", and thinking about how he was relating to it psychotically. I also mentioned, and believe, that Cho had had some live fire training and was quite effective in delivering deadly fire (targeting, accuracy). It would be interesting to know what Cho was doing when not on campus (reportedly quite often). Could he have been practicing off site? Were any others involved?
