written April 17, 2007

BLACKSBURG, Virginia (AP) _ A Virginia Tech senior from South Korea was behind the massacre of at least 30 people locked inside a campus building in the deadliest shooting rampage in modern United States history, the university said Tuesday.

The Virginia Tech Police Department identified him as Cho Seung-Hui, 23, a senior in the English department.

The bloodbath ended with the gunman's suicide, bringing the death toll from two separate shootings _ first at a dorm, then in a classroom building _ to 33 and stamping the campus in the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains with unspeakable tragedy.

The Virginia State Police say ballistics tests show one of the guns found after a deadly shooting at Virginia Tech was used in both shootings, at the doom at the classroom building.

I've heard some musings about Korean racism being prevalent. A little racism is a sign of a healthy nation, and I was convinced that Korea would outlast us all because of it. Not that this is motivated by racism but it comes from the same ethos. I would never go through with it, but I've had dark fantasies about massacaring some frat-trash and I know I'm not alone.
