The shooting at NASA and Virginia Tech university


What was running through his mind? The killing at no sane level is justifiable. It's such a terrible crime. He certainly has made the world weep. Schools, colleges, universities are considered to be some of the safest places on earth. The symbols of intellect, places where creativity breeds, where some of the best minds of the world come out to go on and make things,get ideas for better human living. The incident has proved that even these symbols of educational power are no longer safe.

So, what drove him to a point of executing such a horrendous crime? As he answered in his recorded tape prior to shaping his intentions, he could not bear the 'extra' standard of living by some, could not bear people who craved for more materials for their 'already posh lives'. He was described by some as a loner who hardly mingled with people. But such hatred to go on and kill 32 innocent lives... not at all pardonable. Cho's family has issued an apology letter and as stated in that 'he has made the world weep'. certainly he has.


NASA: One of the most powerful organisations on the planet. Organisation pertaining to having the best minds on earth, advanced technologies, where i guess almost everyday innovations are materialised, tested and deployed to understand the universe in itself. Now, in such a place we have a shooting incidence.......what can be said. I guess no place in this world is safe anymore.
