Cho Seung-Hui -- I've seen and heard his name, his picture is on the internet, on the TV, in the paper.
THE MAN MURDERED 32 PEOPLE. From my understanding he did it to get attention. Why are we focusing on him? Why are we granting him his last wish? Leave the why and how he did it to the cops. Everyone else should quit talking about him, forget him.
Let's focus instead on the victims. Let's hear stories on who they were, how they got where they were, where they hoped to go. Let's learn about the families and friends they left behind. Let's keep them alive in our thoughts and prayers; and let's let that other guy fade into obscurity.

You are so right. I don't know why they are giving him so much air time. Here in NYC on the news tonight I saw an interview where the news reporters went all the way to South Korea and interviewed the killers grandmother. Can you believe this. They were asking her questions about him when he was a young boy. I can't believe they are doing this.

I can't believe they would waste their time and quite frankly I don't care what he was like as a boy. In fact, I turn the channel every a story about him comes on. Maybe if the ratings drop the TV, radio and newspapers will get the message.
Now, if somebody wants to do a tribute to the victims, that I would watch.

I agree with you 100%, not only are we giving him his last wish we are showing are young people and it may give them ideas as we have seen even with some movies and TV shows it seems to give some people ideas, I agree with you they should be focusing on the victims....
