tabs...not a scintilla of factual data in your post. If you really can understand the motives of this individual,. I would avoid you like a plague. Too much emoting and not enough content. Back off on the psychological analysis, especially when you say it is simply, in your opinion, hogwash!!

In other words, lighten up!!

You went to Willamette? Small world. Cindy & I shot pool for a few hours yesterday...at the Cue ball. Bet you played there a bit in your past. Jim still keeps all those classic 9' Brunswick tables in great shape. The Ram isn't he same, tho...not at all. It's been "upscaled", selling mediocre food for high prices.

We watch out of morbid curiosity...I don't see a damned thing political about the original post...
I think we can all agree that NBC played the tapes for profit, not (even though tabs wants to believe it) in order for the public to "understand" the killer. People around him knew he was whacked and psychotic. Teachers (at least one) wanted him out of her class because of the stuff he wrote. BUT and I mean BUT the networks wouldn't play it unless there were people who watch it to give them those ratings.

So, while one may complain about the profit driven nature of corporations - whether or not what they do is "ethics driven", what you come back to, is that the enemy is us. Us - who watch Jerry Springer and relish schadenfreude. The corps give us what we want. So until we all stop watching this stuff and tune in to only progressive family shows and newscasts with the emphasis on "little johnny helped grandma kettle across the street today" we'll keep getting more of the same. And since we saw the one on the guy who killed 30, we won't care until someone kills 40 or 50. Our choice.

So, can you figure it out?
OHHH..I am so wounded by your comments...I just don't understand why a supposedly intelligent person like your self can't think of something orginal to say? Ohhh I get it, the collective doesn't allow orginal thinking...that explains why an otherwise intelligent person is so BRAINWASHED that he nolonger can think for himself. That all he can spew is yesterdays invective. Well sonny boy you will never even get outa the starting gate with that kind of comment, before U go down the stairs with all the other retards before you.

I for one am glad to have heard what he had to say, it gives me a clearer idea of why he did what he did. Instead of leaving U wondering, it expalins alot of this sad indivduals thinking. In the end I feel sorry for Mr Cho, that he had no other way to redress his grievences agains t the world, that he lacked the ability to communicate them in a different way that wouldn't have caused so much harm.

As for NBC, I have no love for them, they would show their own Mothers dangling from the precipice to get a rating.
I think this clearer rebutts any criticisms of myself. However I gave a more detailed description of Mr Cho on another Thread, this was rather circumspect as I had just written the other and didn't want to repeat myself.

However to restate my opinion. Mr Cho was really in a corner psychologicaly, can U imagine not even responding to someone saying Hello. Mr Cho as an imigrant kid probably was ostraicized when he first came to America. Instead of fighting back and giving as good as he took, he internalized all the slights that had been heaped upon him through out his life and the resulting anger just built in him without release. That ate at him and it twisted him. His only real release and place he could express himself was through his writing and when that got shot down, that closed that avenue off. He started to disintegrate psychologically and a little over a year later....Someplace in his family history is the reason for the extreme passivity, he mentioned molestation in his writing, I wouldn't rule that out as cause of his withdrawl and inability to communicate.
