Came to mind as a dark song about a person snapping. Jeremy works too.

Look for RJB's posts on this or the other thread. He's been consolidating notes.
Thanks. Checked rjb's posts. Still haven't found that info. No big deal. I was just curious.

There is a timeline on CNN's page here:
http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2007/virginiatech.shootings/
It's under the "Tragedy" column.
So, the 'suspect in custody' was the boyfriend who they thought shot the dorm kids? Or was it Cho's body?

I understood that the "person of interest" was the boyfriend of the 1st girl shot in the dorm. He wasn't picked up untiil well after things had ended and cleared pretty quickly.
Is that who you were referring to?
If you go to the timeline, there's an email from 10:53 which says that "police has one shooter in custody...."
Interesting. I dunno. I'm fairly sure they are talking about the "person of interest" but at this point I'm in a bit of info overload with the whole thing.
To much info is flooding in via news outlets to keep it all straight any more.
Who are this loser's parents?
Just saw a video of him on cnn.com. He's asking questions to the camera like "do you know what it's like to have garbage stuffed down your throat...to have your neck slit from ear to ear...to be hung from a cross..." ect.
Uh, no, and neither do you, reatard.
The worst thing, other than the innocent lives that were lost, is this may trigger another chain of copycat 17 year old "woe is me" goth kids who hate life, and also get a hold of deadly weapons.
the guy they were questioning is no longer a "person of interest", but merely a witness or informant. He's the first shot girl's boyfriend, thus was imediately taken in for questioning, but has been since absolved of any suspicion.
I'll mention we also have another a2ker nearby this tragedy, not sure how nearby, but close, our poet, JJorge.
I would be keenly interested to hear his thoughts at some point.

He was a "person of interest" because he was the deceased girl's boy friend and moreover, he reportedly had several guns in his possession.

I guess the site admins would have had access to an email address...and hence a way of tracking him through his ISP?
Whoa!!!
I wonder if any of them saw it?
He shot himself in the face, and died without any ID on his body. He was ID by DNA and fingerprint analysis, also by the contents of his bookbag.
I think dlowan might have been referring to my post where I said he had posted online on the anonymous 4chan forum saying "I'm going to kill people at vtech tommorrow in the name of anonymous." This quote is all over google but every page that had it has had its link broken, I think it was a forgery

What percentage of massacres are carried out by "goth kids"? Was this guy?
Am I the only one who feels any sympathy for this kid, and his family?
Well, I don't know that sympathy is the right word for what I'm feeling. It's more like waiting for the facts to unfold before forming an opinion. There are too many unknowns about him and his family for me to have any clue as to what was going on.
I have vast quantities of sympathy for the victims and their families and I don't think there is anything that can come out that will make these actions excusable, but I do see room for the possibility of something akin to sympathy for his family (and even possibly for him) once I know more of the facts.
Well, this morning in the NYTimes we read that a student can develop mental issues on campus and the parents are the last to know so, I wonder now if his parents were even aware that he was such a menace? We all know how kids may behave one way in the home and are completely different people outside of the home so there is the possibility that his parents didn't have a clue and in that case, my heart does go out to them.

I am not talking about the phrase "Person of interest". This I get. I am talking about the phrase "A shooter in custody".

He was involuntarily committed to a mental institution though. I think the parents would have known and had some kind of clue. Whether they were aware that he was such a menace <shrugs>
