The Virginia Tech Massacre took place a few days ago. The shooter shot 33 people on the campus before turning the gun on himself.
He was apparently bullied and was an outcast. All this is probably what provoked him to do such a horrible thing.
What he did was completely wrong. But, do you feel sorry for him? He was bullied to the point that he took 34 lives, which was not at all necessary, and then took his own life.
Do you have any sympathy for this man?
I do.

No. He did it for attention and to be "famous" which is what most of those types of sick pups do. I mean, he filmed himself and took all sorts of pictures of himself to send to NBC news so they would have stuff to air about him. There are many people out there that gets bullied or feels insecure around richer kids. Doesn't mean they go killing everyone. In fact, I beat if you research hard enough - you will find that there are many kids and young adults who got bullied worse then him.
There is no excuse and no way to do I feel sorry for someone. That's like feeling sorry for a child molester because he was a victum as a child. "It's what made him do it". Nope.
Being picked on to one extent or another is apart of life. Doesn't make it right. But doesn't make me feel sorry for people who turn their pain into rage and hurt others.
Remember, this wasn't a child. This was a young MAN who was a legal adult. This wasn't some poor child getting picked on at the playground.
Blaming other people was a way for him and others to Immortalize him and give him "good reason".
Total crap. And the news media needs to stop airing his load of you know what video clips. Everyone playing it and everyone watching it is doing exactly what this killer wanted - - - Attention.
