Virginia Tech Maniac Speaks From Grave

It's the creepiest turn yet in the Virginia Tech slaughter. In between murders, the killer took the time to loop-in NBC news by sending an insane press kit through the mail.

"NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams" has just broadcast a chilling video shot by shooter Cho Seung-Hui.

The package included photos -- but no images of the shootings. The items were delivered to NBC this morning and were immediately turned over to FBI agents in New York.

In a manifesto, included in the package, Cho refers to the two killers behind the shootings at Columbine High School as "martyrs."

The package was postmarked at 9:01 AM ET Monday -- about an hour and 45 minutes after police say Cho shot two people at a residence hall, and shortly before he entered another campus building and killed 30 more, before turning the gun on himself.

361. Please remove these pictures from your website. Tomorrow is a statewide day of mourning. As a show of respect for the families of whom many are patrons of your website I ask that you do this one thing for them. It is absolutly painful beyond belief for them to view these pictures knowing that this person felt he had the right to steal the lifes and futures of their children.

362.
I forgot to include any sicko who writes mature and graphic fiction in my list of those to be denied their right to higher education. Better still, throw them in the darkest, dankest, most decrepid insane asylum available for the rest of their miserable lives or deport them in the case of immigrants. At the top of that list should be this writer William Shakespeer. He talks like one of those Royal British dandies but don't let that fool you, other than the Holy Bible, his novels are the bloodiest and most disturbed books I've ever read. I can't believe this guy is roaming around free on the streets and hasn't murdered or raped someone yet! I bet if they search his house they'll find children tied up in the basement or human bones buried in his backyard!

363. It's way too easy for sick and evil people to get guns in America. We are so worried about terrorists hurting our country. We should take a look at our home grown terrorists. I've seen too many many innocent people gey gunned down in America. Besides the VT massacare I'm sick of hearing about kids being killed by gang warfare. Gangs and people like Cho are the terrorists right in America. Some gun control measures need to be taken or this will keep happening. It's stupid that the NRA people say well more people should arm themselves to fend off psychos like Cho. If it wasn't so easy for people like Cho to gets guns then we wouldn't have to worry about everyone needing a gun. God bless the people he killed.

364. This man was a mentally ill psychopath who was totally inept to make any normal social connections. He was also very lonely, felt ostracized due to his inappropriate lack of social communication with others. The sad thing about this is he did not get the right kind of intensive psychological help along with his parents getting appropriate counseling that should have been obtained years ago. I would not be surprised if it comes out that he was bipolar schizophrenic with psychopathic tendencies. In any case, the help was not provided to keep this person from going over the edge. I thought it was very strange that his own parents did not come to visit him when he was at college. Also, he stayed at the college during spring break and did not go home. Why weren't the parents taking the time to communicate with him and see him? It has been reported that the parents have left their home and gone into hiding. Why have they not publically apologized on the media? It was in their control to get as much help as possible for their son through out his life. We all need to pay attention to what is going on with others we meet that may have mental illness problems and try to get them some help or alert authorities that they need help. There were signs given repeatedly and not enough was done to prevent this outcome to all these innocent beautiful young people that had wonderful lives ahead of them. My prayers go out to the families of all these young adults. This is a real wake up call to how little is being done for the mentally ill population. Most insurance does not pay for it. The government has cut the funding dramatically for mental health facilities and families can't afford to pay the huge psych fees privately for the appropriate therapy.

369. NRA means no rational awareness

I believe you are showing that you are not rational. Ranting and raving with NO facts! Obviously you have not studied the CONSTITUTION!

Amendment 2

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."


The national guard is NOT the militia. There was no national guard when this country was founded. We had a small Army and the rest of it was made up of men volunteering to fight the OPRESSION from King George. (the tyrannical king of England!)

After we fought and won our FREEDOM, our forefathers drafted the constitution to protect the PEOPLE. They were also keenly aware that our guns made us free and keep us free!

You need not blame what this evil wacked out nut did on the NRA and gunowners!
GUNS ARE NOT evil. Some people are!
My glock has never got up chased me down and shot me or anybody else!
I sleep much better knowing I can protect myself and my family should some whackjob break in to my home and try to rape and kill me. You can't tell the criminals "hey could you wait before attacking me I need to call the law they should be here in 30 minutes or so"!


By the way plenty of deer are legaly hunted and killed with handguns every year.
Once again you're raving about something you have NO clue about!

Perhaps you should read up on the history of this nation! While you're at it study the part about the revolutionary war!

If you think guns are sooo evil and America is so dumb and clueless. I'd be happy to buy you a one way ticket to one of the country's where guns are illegal! How about Communist North Korea? Where they starve their people! They have a tyrant there who makes all of the laws!


We are blessed to live in this Country!
Yes, people do use that freedom to hurt others which is despicable!

It's more despicable that people hop on the band wagon wanting to give up even more freedoms for the sake of being safe! That is nothing more than STUPIDITY!

Safety cannot be guaranteed ever. A drunk driver could kill us the next time we get on the road.

370. When I saw these videos on the NBC NEWS I was horrified and they make me cry everytime because watching especially the picture of Cho holding the 9mm gun up to the camera so close and imagining what these students and professors must of gone through was TOO HARD TOO HANDLE FOR ME. Watching it also looking at Cho's eyes you see no SOUL through out his eyes he is completely EMPTY. He was like the walking dead just nothing. My biggest thing with these killings is WHY these people did he choose his victims or was it just random. Cho was such a disturbed person and the campus should of gotten rid of him and I wish the girls would of pressed charges against him and he could of been in jail so he couldn't hurt people that all I got say about that. He basically is a big JOKE and a COWARD. I just can't imagine shooting people and not be affected by it knowing you just took someones life away from them it is too hard to process. May GOD heal the Virginia TECH and be with everyone to heal the damage that Cho caused. God is good and Evil will not concur goodness and peace and love.

371. Daisy,
Thank you for your "well informed" clarification of Amendment 2 of our constitution. However, read it again...you contradict yourself...

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

When did the mentally unsound, gang bangers and drug dealers and addicts become a well regulated militia? They can get their hands on illegal handguns in a matter of moments. Do you think they actually apply for licenses?

As well informed as you believe you are, you clearly seem to be UNinformed about illegal handguns or the huge business it has become.

I'm not against guns being in the proper hands. I'm against gun regulation so lax that "ASSAULT WEAPONS" easily get into the hands of people who have no business carrying them.

And for the record, Daisy, stating my opinions on a website created for that purpose isn't ranting and raving! Hurling anonymous insults to get your "point" across is!

372. Its NOT a racist issue here, it doesn't matter if they were black, white, purple, yellow etc...it is the PERSON that done it.

373. Such a sad Tragedy. So many young, beautiful lives taken and teachers included. How did our society let them down. This is not to blame anyone it is to learn from.
Chos Aunt stated he had a communication problem which was diagnosed as autism at a very young age. The learning tool. Information and communication.
The child should have had communication professionals to teach the parents years ago to work with their child to help him focus, trust and communicate.
I saw a movie regarding a mother who had two children with this proble, She focused on repetitive around the clock therapists, friends and herself to work with them till they findly started responding and communicating.
This boy was pushed aside, neglected and lost through the cracks of Justice.
His Aunt called him an idiot. That was sad to think that was the kind of abuse that sick child may have grown up with. Was he abused by someone at a young age?
Why was this child not given a buddy to get him involved in school and to see that he gets encouragement and the medical help he needed. This should have been done at a very young age. He should have been kicked out of the University when he was diagnosed with a mental problem.
People learn from this and do what is right. Everyone wants to drop the ball and blame the laws. All the school had to do was get with the parents and go to court to prove him dangerous to himself and others.
Right?????
God Bless all those loved ones who lost family and friends. Encluding the Chos.
Stop showing the pictures of Cho.
A couple of pictures he looked almost normal with the smiles and he spoke softly. Maybe that was the true Cho noone got to know??? Its time to let the family and school heal. Focus on repairing school policies and the laws to keep this from happening again.
Love and Prayers
