Good post, Jessie. Thanks for taking this on.
In the general media, I’m sick that this killer is getting rock star publicity. I understand the media wants to work this: it’s a huge tragedy that has touched many, but I’d rather see them discuss the lives of those who were killed and mostly I’d rather see this discussion: our huge mental health problem and the lack of help available. My sister is schizophrenic and bi-polar. She cannot get help until she is at a serious danger point. She’s gone to hospitals before saying she feels unstable and dangerous, only to be turned away because there’s no “appearance” of imminent danger! It’s as if there is no preventative care for metally diseased, only weakened damage control. It’s very very sad. Friends and family can only help to a small degree. It is a serious medical problem that needs serious attention from society as a whole because it affects society as a whole. I’d have no problem paying taxes toward something like this. We should be proud of how we handle health issues in this wealthy nation, not ashamed and fearful.

“Go get cancer like the rest. You “showed” them, you proud American you.”

Maybe you should go have some sugar since that was quite a sour statement. I think your organics are going to your head. The hate you spew forth is astounding. Wishing ill on people is not a pretty trait–and no organic food is going to fix that! Here’s a pound of sugar, maybe it will help that attitude of yours.

Has anyone seen the new pictures that Cho sent to NBC in the press kit? He looks kind of normal in the ID picture they have of him on the news, but these pictures of him with the guns and the anger in his face. I really feel so sorry for all the people that were at VT that day, and all the families. My heart goes out to all of you.

I’m sorry that was mean.

Did you catch that part where I said I was free to dis the president? Yeah well that includes the government. I don’t agree with how they handle anything here in this “democracy” So I guess I agree with you there. Our government sucks, but at least we have the power to do something about it, even though sometimes it doesn’t seem like what we do matters because the whole world is going to fall to Glabal Climate Change anyway, and sorry but that’s not only our falt that’s the falt of the whole world, just like it’s all of our responciblity to try and do something about it.

Oh and I don’t think that Americans are the only ones who get Cancer. You obviously showed your true colors with that comment. So enjoy your hate and anger, beacuse you obviously are a very unhappy person.

I don’t mind America, I mind the ignorance of most Americans is all. You are NOT free, either, Cp. That is what I’m talking about. People sit on their fat white asses touting their “freedoms” while all the while your rights are being removed from you and the govt is approving more deadly killers IN YOUR FOOD that you are too busy feeling proud and “free” to eat… it is laughable. Go get cancer like the rest. You “showed” them, you proud American you. GET A CLUE.

If you don’t like America then get out. Personally I would rather be free to choose my religion, carry a gun, voice my opinion, read celebitchy, show my face, dis the president, choose whom I marry and all of the other freedoms we have here. Yeah America is not perfect, but it’s a hell of a lot better then some places in the world. I feel safe here! People all choose how they treat others. Choose to be a good person and don’t follow the pack and you will provail.

The reason why idiot Americans canNOT handle guns is because they are all too imbalanced due to the unnatural chemicals, hormones and sugars they eat all day. In order to have guns, you must show you are responsible, sorry. And Americans are whiney and think themselves blameless and better than everyone (I am an American, just not a blind one).

This guy let out plenty of warnings, and maybe if we taught our kids compassion and shit, they wouldn’t pick on people to the point that they act like this.

And honestly? We’re not any better. That is what Hollywood comes down to. Look at us making fun of how “ugly” Kirsten Dunst is and stuff. I do it too, but honestly, it does shame me a bit. I’m not proud to be here, it just makes my work day more entertaining. But it feeds into the same logic and machine that eventually ruined this kid and turned him into a killer — the superficialness of our culture.

What do we expect? Carrying a gun or not is really not the answer.

VT student,

Read the article again. I don’t see how Jessie was being disrespectful to VT officials. She simply stated that a lot more should have been done by the counselors and administration when sending out the emails.
But at the end, she said that we can blame whoever we want to blame, but the only one who pulled the trigger was Seung-Hui.
As she stated, this is just HER opinion. She, just like everyone who has a heart, is truly upset and angered by what happened at your school. She’s just making her sentiments known. Relax.
