A Virginia Tech student goes into an anger rampage and murders 31 people and them commits suicide. Could more have been done? Is Virginia Tech really a safe place to study? What is your view?Sponsored Links:

The sad thing about this is that more US citizens will become prejudice against foreign students and immigrants in general.

| A language teacher originally from Montreal is among the 32 victims at Virginia Tech, according to state police dealing with the aftermath of Monday's tragedy. Jocelyne Couture-Nowak, who taught French at Virginia Tech's department of foreign languages, was killed when gunman Cho Seung-Hui opened fire, killing 32 before turning the gun on himself. |

I always say that people who commit these type of atrocities ALWAYS give signs but for strange reason most people tend to ignore them or brush them off completly:

| BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) - The gunman suspected of carrying out the Virginia Tech massacre that left 33 people dead was identified Tuesday as a English major whose creative writing was so disturbing that he was referred to the school's counseling service. News reports also said that he may have been taking medication for depression, that he was becoming increasingly violent and erratic, and that he left a note in his dorm in which he railed against "rich kids," "debauchery" and "deceitful charlatans" on campus. "He was a loner, and we're having difficulty finding information about him," school spokesman Larry Hincker said. Professor Carolyn Rude, chairwoman of the university's English department, said she did not personally know the gunman. But she said she spoke with Lucinda Roy, the department's director of creative writing, who had Cho in one of her classes and described him as "troubled." "There was some concern about him," Rude said. "Sometimes, in creative writing, people reveal things and you never know if it's creative or if they're describing things, if they're imagining things or just how real it might be. But we're all alert to not ignore things like this." She said Cho was referred to the counseling service, but she said she did not know when, or what the outcome was. Rude refused to release any of his writings or his grades, citing privacy laws. The Chicago Tribune reported on its Web site that he left a note in his dorm room that included a rambling list of grievances. Citing identified sources, the Tribune said he had recently shown troubling signs, including setting a fire in a dorm room and stalking some women... |

PROFESSOR: SHOOTER'S WRITING DRIPPED WITH ANGER
Long before before Cho Seung-Hui's deadly shooting spree on the Virginia Tech campus, a professor was so concerned about his anger that she took him out of another instructor's class and taught him one-on-one.

Here is the face of an educated, angry mass murderer. Virginia Tech will never be the same again. Most likely neither will any other higher learning institution. They should start paying closer attention to signs and not shrugging them off.

I was reading two of his plays available online through the link News gave. Shocking. Disturbing. If you analyze it quickly, it is like a 9th grader writing not like a 23 years old man. On his writings there is a huge amount of anger and there is a lot of sexual abuse (I won't be surprised if he was molested while he was a child, it was *the* topic of two of his writings). Extremely graphic. He seemed to see the world through the eyes that the bad and the abuser always gets away with everything through lies and deceit while the victim is the one to blame.

It is very puzzling to me that there were so many disturbing signs that this young man was obviously very troubled and yet, nothing was done about it. The professor took the gentleman's plays to the police and their response was, "no crime has been committed!" If they said that he often stalked women and even set a fire in a dorm, why wasn't anything done about it? Setting a fire in a dorm is a serious matter and this should have been suffice to have him expelled! But then again, I guess everyone took it for granted that "nothing bad ever happens here." My heart goes out to the families who lost their children to this gunman. I believe that this tragedy could have been avoided, if the authorities paid more attention to what the professor said.
