 He wasn't American, he was a South Korean national.

 Guess he was pissed off the states thought that Iraq and Iran is a more pressing issue than the threat of North Korea
 
either way kids cracked.

 it's always the states eh shawn? there's no way his motives could be anything other than politics right? i'm starting to think your ignorance is just a big joke you play on all of this, because you can't be serious in the satements you make.

		I don't know why all of these incidents turn into gun debates. These kinds of things always have been and always will be mental health issues. The way I see it, its our lack of understanding of the human mind that leads to things like this, until we have a better understanding we're going to miss alot of warning signs. 
 
 
How did he buy the gun when he was being treated for depression, with medicine and also counselling? Don't they do background checks....? If they don't then there is your first problem.

		Pyro, you're an idiot. You say you are just "going by the facts" but NONE of the facts surrounding this case are even remotely close to what you say. So please,  just be quiet.  
 
I think what we should be focusing on here is why people these days (specifically children) are incapable of handling their emotions. Apparently this guy did this after he thought his girlfriend was cheating on him. There are countless people whose partners cheat one them, do we see them killing a bunch of people randomly? No. What makes certain people unable to cope with bad things? What makes them think that killing people is a good response to sadness?

 that's how i always feel about these issues. basically any debate such as this (like video games cause violence, etc.) boils down to the human mind. taking the problem at face value won't get you anywhere really.

		Just found out my friend's roommate was one of the killed.  I was even her facebook friend.  I was browsing her wall posts and it's just amazing to view the time line.  The latests posts are all "Mary, I know you're looking down on all of us.  Sorry you had to leave so soon."  And then you get to a point where the posts are all like "Mary, please give me a call when you get this.  Just making sure you're all right."   Just weird....out of 12,000 students (or how many ever go there) I only know 2.  1 of those two was killed.  Amazing.

 There is background check, no idea if they check what drugs you are on but they should have seen he has a tendency to be depressed. Either way the kid is scum and shouldn't even be referred to by his name...just Shit head.
 
I do agree through tripe, the shit head was mentally ill, now this has happened there will be a shit load of anti gun people running around, as well as violent video game addicts running about crying.

		I saw on FOX that people were worried about potential racial backlashes against Koreans and Asians. 
 
If that shit happens, I have officially lost all faith in the human race. It would be ridiculous seeing as 95% of spree killers are white males.
