My God!
那年,美国Denver郊区的中学枪杀发生时,我正在Denver出差。我所在的公司里就有死伤学生的父母,当时的情景如恶梦,那些家长疯了一般。市民们拥集到州政厅 前要求禁枪。我坚决支持禁枪。 - Re: 美国校园枪击22死 21伤posted on 04/16/2007
Just read the news about VT shooting. It's very sad. I have been to the campus a few times, and had a fond memory of it. The campus is located in a small peaceful rural town in southwest Virginia, which should be quite safe. The school has decent engineering programs, in addition to pretty good sport teams. But, it only takes a crazy guy with his finger on the trigger to make this happen. sad......
It's truly a heartbreaking day for the Hokies... - posted on 04/16/2007

有一回我到体育店去买衣服,不意转到枪械部分,见到那么些子弹头
,一百颗装的,九块九毛九。人的生命在枪下真是一文不值。
记得当年严打枪决,家属还得负子弹费,三毛九分钱,当时米价是一
毛三。三斤大米。
前些天看到伊拉克每日的死伤数目都有点麻目了。
这是BBC最新报到。我以为这件事在美国的影响肯定很坏。
当然,当年持枪是反对暴政的。

最新消息:美国校园枪击30死 10伤
美国弗吉尼亚理工大学发生校园枪击,枪手打死了至少30人,10人在事件中受伤。
警方说,校园的一个最大的学生宿舍和工程楼在大约两小时间隔内相继发生枪击。
警方相信事件是一名枪手所为,枪手已经死亡。
但不清楚是被警方击毙还是自杀。
校园警察负责人弗林查姆说,他们先在周一格林尼治标准时间12:15,当地事件早晨7:15接到报警说,安布勒·约翰斯顿学生宿舍西楼发生多起枪击。
然后两小时后,科学与工程楼诺里斯厅也发出枪击报警。
从电视报道中可以听到密集的枪声,现场看来紧张混乱。
大量警车和救护车已经出现在现场,伤者被送往附近医院,但因当地风大且一度下雪,无法使用救援直升飞机。
尚未排除中国学生伤亡
这所公立大学位于弗吉尼亚西南的布莱克斯堡,有学生两万六千人。
据报该校有大批国际学生,包括不少来自中国和印度的留学生。
中国驻美国大使馆教育处一秘张静安对BBC中文部表示,他们正通过当地的中国学生学者联谊会积极联系当地中国学生,目前还没有发现中国学生受伤或死亡。
但张静安表示,目前校方尚未公布死伤者名单,仍不能排除有中国学生伤亡的可能。
驻美台北经济文化代表处新闻官员也告诉BBC中文部,目前没有台湾学生伤亡消息。
学生和当地人对事件感到恐惧和震动。
白宫发言人说布什总统深感惊讶并对死者家人表示关切。
美国国会为死难者默哀。
这次事件是美国历史上最严重的校园枪杀事件。
1966年,惠特曼在杀死妻子和母亲后从得克萨斯大学的一个塔楼上向校园开枪,打死14人,伤32人。 1999年,两名中学生在科罗拉多一所高中打死12名同学后自杀。

all this maddening killing!
What's wrong with this country?! - Re: 美国校园枪击22死 21伤posted on 04/16/2007
just heard the news that the shooter was an Asian man. If true, I hope with all my heart he was not from China. I will feel very very bad if this turns out to be the case.
If there is anything wrong with this country related to this shooting, it is the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution - Right to Bear Arms. The original reason for this amendment has been long gone. - Re: 美国校园枪击22死 21伤posted on 04/16/2007

Latest from CNN:
The gunman suspect was Cho Seung-Hui, 23, of korean descent. - posted on 04/17/2007
Virginia Tech president: Shooter 'one of our students'
BLACKSBURG, Virginia (CNN) -- Police identified the gunman who killed 32 people on the Virginia Tech campus before turning the gun on himself as student Cho Seung-Hui, university police Chief Wendell Flinchum said Tuesday.
The 23-year-old South Korean and resident alien lived at the university's Harper Hall, Flinchum said. He was an English major, the chief said.
Flinchum said ballistics tests showed that one of the two guns recovered at Norris Hall, where 30 people and the gunman died, was used in the Norris shooting and an earlier shooting at a dormitory that left two dead.
The university and police are still in the process of releasing the names of the 32 people killed in Monday's shootings. (Watch how some are asking why warnings weren't issued sooner )
A doctor at a Blacksburg hospital described the injuries he saw Monday as "amazing" and the shooter as "brutal."
"There wasn't a shooting victim that didn't have less than three bullet wounds in them," said Dr. Joseph Cacioppo of Montgomery Regional Hospital.
Even among the less serious injuries, Cacioppo said, "we saw one patient that had a bullet wound to the wrist, one to the elbow and one to the thigh. We had another one with a bullet wound to the abdomen, one to the chest and one to the head."
A law enforcement source close to the investigation said a .22-caliber handgun and a 9 mm handgun were recovered at the scene. (Watch how quickly these guns can be fired, reloaded )
Details surface
The day's first shooting, at the West Ambler Johnston dormitory, which houses 895 students, occurred about 7:15 a.m.
At the time of the later shootings at Norris Hall, police were investigating a "person of interest" in the dormitory shootings, Flinchum said Monday.
During the Tuesday news conference, Flinchum said the person of interest was an acquaintance of a woman killed at the dorm.
Col. Steven Flaherty of the Virginia State Police said authorities were still investigating whether Cho had any accomplices in planning or executing Monday's rampage.
Steger told reporters Monday that police found the front doors of Norris Hall chained shut and that by the time they got to the second floor, the gunfire stopped.
Authorities say they believed the dorm shooting was an "isolated incident" and were still investigating it when the slaughter occurred at the other campus building, Norris Hall. (Officials thought shooter had fled)
The gunman killed 31 people, including himself, and wounded 15 in Norris Hall classrooms.
Steger: Police thought dorm shooting was isolated
Steger on Tuesday defended the university response to the dorm shooting, saying police believed it to be "a domestic fight, perhaps a murder-suicide" that was contained to one dorm room. (Watch the police chief explain where bodies were found )
Police cordoned off the dorm and all residents were told about the shooting as police looked for witnesses, Steger said.
"I don't think anyone could have predicted that another event was going to take place two hours later," Steger said, adding that it would've been difficult to warn every student because most were off campus at the time. (Watch a student's recording of police responding to loud bangs )
The gunman was dressed "almost like a Boy Scout" and wore a black ammunition vest, said a student who survived by pretending to lie dead on a classroom floor.
"He just stepped within five feet of the door and just started firing," said Erin Sheehan. "He seemed very thorough about it, getting almost everyone down, I pretended to be dead." (Watch student describe surviving by playing dead )
The shooter, who remained quiet throughout the rampage, came back 30 seconds after the first round of gunfire and Sheehan and her classmates tried to barricade the door with their bodies, she said.
After the shooter couldn't get in, he began firing through the door, Sheehan said. Of the 25 students in her German class, Sheehan was one of four able to walk out on her own when police arrived. (Watch students react to shooting )
Victims' identities being released
Courtney Dalton, an 18-year-old student who worked at West End Dining Hall, said a friend named Ryan Clark was one of the two dormitory victims.
Clark, a resident assistant at West Ambler Johnston Hall, had once worked at the cafeteria serving pizza. Sobbing, she described Clark "a happy person."
As of early Tuesday, the identities of four other victims had been released:
G.V. Loganathan, a professor of civil and environmental engineering
Liviu Librescu, a professor of engineering science and mechanics
Ross Alameddine, a student from Saugus, Massachusetts
Matthew La Porte, student, Dumont, New Jersey
The university has scheduled a convocation for 2 p.m. ET Tuesday. President Bush is scheduled to attend.
Classes have been canceled for the rest of the week, and Norris Hall will be closed for the remainder of the semester, Steger said.
There have been two bomb threats at the university this month, the latest of which came Friday. Flinchum said Tuesday they were unrelated to the shootings. (Watch gunfire on the campus )
Last August, the first day of class was cut short at Virginia Tech by a manhunt for an escaped prisoner accused of killing a Blacksburg hospital security guard and a sheriff's deputy.
Before Monday, the deadliest mass shooting in the United States occurred in 1991, when George Hennard drove a pickup truck into a Killeen, Texas, cafeteria and fatally shot 23 people, before shooting and killing himself.

2. 所有韩国大学生都接受一年以上军训, 大陆的好像已经停止了吧?
BLACKSBURG, Virginia (Reuters) - The gunman who killed 32 people and then himself at Virginia Tech university on Monday was identified by police on Tuesday as Cho Seung-Hui, a South Korean studying at the university.
Police said he was 23 and that one of two guns recovered was used in both of the two separate shooting incidents at the campus on Monday.
"The evidence has not led us to say with all certainty that the same shooter was involved in both shootings," Steven Flaherty, superintendent of the Virginia State Police, told a news conference.
"It's certainly reasonable for us to assume that Cho was the shooter in both places."

qinggang was trying to speak like a statistician, however the aftermath impact on everyday life of oversea Chinese will be dramatized should the gunman turn out to be one of us. Just watch out for the Korean people's reaction, and certainly American's attitude toward them after Apr 16.

The killer was abnomal.
However, If the killer’s a Chinese, it could become a more complicated issue.
An individual shooting rampage could cause a political storm in USA.
More people could die. (I may write more for discussion when I get a chance).
However, let’s mourn and pray for the victims.
It’s a heart broken tragedy, and people are crying.
As parents, we must think what’s wrong with the world and kids.
Hope the world have a peace and people have a peaceful life.
Best wishes to your baby girl.

He came to US at the age of 8, so he didn't receive the para-military training in Korea. It may reveal more evidence that he is the victim of the loose US gun control in the context of cultural clash.

ZT from Yahoo
Cho, a 23-year-old South Korean and resident alien, lived at the university's Harper Hall, Flinchum said. He was an English major, the chief said.
Cho was a loner and authorities are having a hard time finding information about him, said Harry Hincker, associate vice president for university relations.
A department of Homeland Security official said Cho came to the United States in 1992, through Detroit, Michigan. He had lawful permanent residence, via his parents, and renewed his green card in October 2003, the official said.
His residence was listed as Centreville, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C.

Va. Tech Shooter was described as "Loner"
By Debbi Wilgoren and Howard Schneider
Washington Post Staff Writers
Tuesday, April 17, 2007; 2:00 PM
A 23-year-old English major from Centreville was the gunman who killed 32 people and then himself on the Virginia Tech campus yesterday -- the deadliest shooting rampage in modern U.S. history, university and law enforcement officials said.
Cho Seung Hui was a South Korean native who immigrated to this country as a child, officials said. His lifeless body was found in Norris Hall, a classroom building, among those of several other slain students, Virginia state police superintendent Col. Steve Flaherty said. Cho, a senior, had apparently taken his own life. Cho graduated in 2003 from Westfield High School in Fairfax County.
Victims were also found in three other classrooms and a stairwell in Norris Hall, said Flaherty, who called the building "a horrific crime scene."
An affidavit for a search warrant filed this morning in Montgomery County, Va., circuit court said police found a "bomb threat note . . . directed at engineering school department buildings" near the bodies of the shooter and some victims. Investigators believe "the note is connected with the shooting incident," the agent wrote, without elaborating. The affidavit said that investigators were searching Cho's room in Harper Hall.
Law enforcement sources said that Cho died with the words "Ismail Ax" in red ink on one of his arms. It is not clear what that is a reference to. Sources also said authorities have found what has been described as a rambling note in Cho's dorm room. The Chicago Tribune reported that the note railed against "rich kids," "debauchery" and "deceitful charms."
Cho was an English major whose creative writing was so disturbing that he was referred to the school's counseling service, the Associated Press reported.
Inside Harper Hall this morning, students said they believed Cho lived in a suite on the second floor. The suite had a common room linking three bedrooms, each of which was shared by two students.
A reporter who briefly glimpsed the common room found it strewn with newspapers and soda cans, with one resident walking around. The common room appeared plain with beige walls. One of the doors facing the common room, which students believed led to Cho's room, was locked. Walkie-talkie conversation could be heard from behind the door. A hall monitor kicked out the reporter, saying that no media were allowed.
Investigators worked through the night gathering and removing evidence from Norris Hall, including a 9mm handgun and a .22 caliber handgun, officials said. A total of 31 people, including Cho, were fatally shot in the building.
Virginia Tech police chief Wendell Flinchum said ballistics tests showed that one of the weapons was also used in the shooting deaths of two people more than two hours earlier at West Ambler Johnston Hall, a dormitory building.
"It is reasonable for us to assume that Cho was the shooter in both, but we don't have the evidence to take us there," Flaherty said.
Law enforcement officials said they are still talking to an acquaintance of the female student killed in the residence hall. That person was detained off-campus after the first shooting and has been labeled a person of interest.
Cho, described by fellow students a loner, cleared a federal criminal background check at the time his green card was renewed in 2003, as did his family, a U.S. immigration official said.
"His check came back clean," the official said. "The whole family didn't have a problem."
The family of four entered the U.S. with a sponsor, typically an American relative of one of the parents, an immigration official said.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was reviewing Cho's background investigation and green card renewal application form and expected to release redacted versions later Tuesday.
At Virginia Tech, he lived in Harper Hall, which according to a campus map is one building away from West Ambler Johnston. "The only thing we know about him is that he was a loner," Larry Hincker, associate vice president of university relations said.
Fellow residents of Harper Hall were rattled this morning. Timothy Johnson, a freshman from Annandale, Va., said he recognized Cho and occasionally greeted him in the hallway. "We were all just shocked," Johnson said.
Tom Duscheid, a management student from Pittsburgh, Pa., said he did not know the shooter. "I feel very fortunate," he said. "What if he went into here [with a gun]?"

凶手的手臂上用红笔写了两个字:Ismail Ax (伊斯梅尔之斧)。Ismail 伊斯梅尔是犹太人的祖先Abraham亚伯拉罕的儿子,为亚伯拉罕的妻子萨拉的使女哈格尔所生。当亚伯拉罕的嫡子Isaac出生后,伊斯梅尔和母亲哈格尔被赶出家门,流落到沙漠里。伊斯梅尔被阿拉伯人奉为穆罕默德和阿拉伯人的始祖。
但愿凶手在这里只是使用了这个典故的象征意义,而不是代表阿拉伯复仇。 - Re: 美国校园枪击32死 21伤posted on 04/17/2007

这杀人的人都是不正常的. 青岗先生用词不对, 历史上存在很多杀人的事件, 并不能得出这样的观点: "这是正常的", 而只能说类似的事件发生过很多次. 凡是存在的就是合理的, 这是一个相对的理论, 而不是绝对的理论. 唯物主义者的世界观也只能是相对的. "对世界(生命)的尊重"才是一个最基本的判断一个人是否正常的标准.
我刚才看了一些跟帖, 有人说象我这样坚决反战的人是"没落的文人". 意思大该是说这样的文人之谈没有用, 人们还是在战争中相互攻击. 看到这样的说法, 我也唯有苦笑而已.
文明的进展是需要很多严肃地反省的. 一句话: 这些人是疯子; 一句话: 人就是这样的, 他们争名夺利, 相互杀戮. 这两句话只反映了事实, 并不能说明人是一个有智慧有灵性的生物, 我们应该分析, 应该发展出一种被普遍接受的向善的思想, 应该抵制和中止恶的疯狂的事件和思想.

Poor kid... his eyes look just innocent to me.
Who said he is free of cross-cultural or sub-cultural influence simply because he's raised up in US? Remember he came over at 8, and if his parents are first generation just like us, he is for sure immersed in their own culture more than anything else in street. The tragedy is that from whom he has acquired such a professional-grade shooting skills?
This is almost a parallel question posed by millions of Americans before: "where the hell did they get the pilot training from?"

警方透露,23岁的赵承熙在8岁时随父母移民美国。
媒体报道称最早的两位受害者中的女性是赵承熙的前任女友。
不过美国有线新闻台(CNN)专访赵承熙两位室友时,他们则透露从未见赵与女孩子交往,并说他很少与人交谈,为人"孤僻",有时行为"古怪"。
赵承熙在写作课上创作的两个剧本中都有大量的暴力描写和涉及谋杀的内容,在他的写作老师干预下,他在学校接受了心理治疗。
警方透露,他们在工程系教学楼发现一把9毫米口径手枪和一把.22口径手枪,并证实其中一把手枪曾被用于学生宿舍的枪击事件。
不过他们表示,仍在调查赵承熙是否有作案同伙。

BLACKSBURG, Va. - Between his first and second bursts of gunfire, the Virginia Tech gunman mailed a package to NBC headquarters in New York containing photos of him brandishing guns and video of him delivering an angry, profanity-laced tirade about rich kids and hedonism.
ADVERTISEMENT
"You had a hundred billion chances and ways to have avoided today," 23-year-old Cho Seung-Hui says in a harsh monotone, in an excerpt shown on "NBC Nightly News." "But you decided to spill my blood. You forced me into a corner and gave me only one option. The decision was yours. Now you have blood on your hands that will never wash off."
NBC said the package contained an 1,800-word diatribe and 29 photos, 11 of them showing him aiming handguns at the camera. Much of the rant is incoherent and filled with obscenities. He rails against Christianity and the rich.
"Your Mercedes wasn't enough, you brats," he says, apparently reading from a manifesto. "Your golden necklaces weren't enough you snobs. Your trust funds wasn't enough. Your vodka and cognac wasn't enough. All your debaucheries weren't enough. Those weren't enough to fulfill your hedonistic needs. You had everything.
The package, which arrived at NBC two days after Cho killed 32 people and committed suicide in the deadliest one-man shooting rampage in modern U.S. history, bore a Postal Service stamp showing that it had been mailed at a Virginia post office at 9:01 a.m. Monday, about an hour and 45 minutes after Cho first opened fire.
That would explain one of the biggest mysteries about the massacre: Where the gunman was and what he did during that two-hour window between the first burst of gunfire at a high-rise dorm, and the second attack, at a classroom building.
Some of the pictures show him smiling. Some depict him brandishing two weapons at a time, one in each hand. He wears a khaki-colored military-style vest, fingerless gloves, a black T-shirt, a backpack and a backwards, black baseball cap. Another photo shows him swinging a hammer two-fisted. Another shows an angry-looking Cho holds a gun to his temple.
The package was sent by overnight delivery but did not arrive at NBC until Wednesday morning. It had apparently been delayed because it had the wrong ZIP code, NBC said.
An alert postal employee brought the package to NBC's attention after noticing the Blacksburg return address and a name similar to the words reportedly found scrawled in red ink on Cho's arm after the bloodbath, "Ismail Ax," NBC said.
"I didn't have to do it. I could have left. I could have fled," he says. "But now I am no longer running. If not for me, for my children and my brothers and sisters that you (expletive). I did it for them."
He also makes references to the Columbine High massacre and the teenage killers, according to NBC. - posted on 04/19/2007

枪击案暴露韩裔家庭移民代价 赵承熙姐姐供职国防部
韩国大批父母让孩子在幼年时就移民美国,以避开国内激烈的升学竞争、拿美国大学文凭
18日,关于美国弗吉尼亚理工大学枪击案嫌疑人——韩裔移民赵承熙(前译“赵承辉”)的性格、言行等细节,被同他有过接触的人们一一回忆起来。
几乎没有朋友,平时将自己掩藏在帽子和太阳镜下,沉默寡言,说话声音几近耳语,拒绝与老师、同学和邻居交流,有时威胁同学,有时沮丧,写以死亡为主题的诗歌和声讨富人的“宣言”……种种描述,勾勒出一个心理状况迥异常人的形象。
枪击案的发生也许可以直接归因于赵承熙本人的性格或心理状况,但透过血案,韩国人也在反思他们移民美国的模式,以及这种模式可能造成的社会问题。
韩裔移民普遍难过
17日,当弗吉尼亚州一家公司的韩国裔秘书杨云最初听说杀死32名师生的嫌疑人是一名亚裔时,她强烈地祈祷:但愿这不是一个韩裔。
几小时后,当得知枪手赵承熙不仅与她来自同一个国家,而且是在同一个韩裔社区成长起来时,30岁的杨云痛苦不已。她说:“我很难过,每个韩国人都很难过。”
在杨云所住的弗吉尼亚州费尔法克斯县森特利维尔(Centreville)市,很多人怀有同样的情绪。在马里兰州、弗吉尼亚州、华盛顿特区交界地区,有5.2万多名韩国裔移民。而森特利维尔是其中受教育程度最高、秩序最好的移民聚居地。赵承熙家就住在该市。赵家的房子有3个卧室,费尔法克斯县政府对其估价为404510美元。
典型的韩裔家庭
赵承熙8岁时随父母移民到美国,目前全家都已拿到绿卡。赵承熙的父母开一家干洗店,他的姐姐赵顺毕业于普林斯顿大学,2004年在美国国防部实习后,目前是国防部的合同职员。
此前在美国,人们对韩裔移民的整体印象往往是勤劳、受教育程度高、注重家庭和睦。赵家的邻居阿布杜尔·夏什也说,赵承熙的父母安静、谦让而勤劳,看上去深爱自己的儿子。赵承熙在弗吉尼亚理工大学上学的这几年中,父母经常驱车接送他往返于学校和家之间,这一路程单程就需开车4个多小时。
“韩国式移民”代价巨大
弗吉尼亚州一位名叫金密河的社区活动积极分子说,各个韩裔社区组织目前正安排韩裔青年在本周接受心理咨询,“即便是那些出生在美国的韩裔青年,也会从此面临身份上的认同危机。”
17日,华盛顿特区政府的一名韩裔职员在写给其宗教组织负责人的一封电子邮件中说:“我办公室里的人用异样的眼光看我。我甚至没法走近同事跟他们说话。我很羞耻。”
而一些韩裔社区领袖认为,赵承熙事件将使一些韩裔移民反省他们让孩子在幼年时就移民美国的做法。这种“韩国式移民”是为了避开韩国国内激烈的中学、大学入学竞争,拿一张在韩国颇为吃香的美国大学文凭。
弗吉尼亚州北部一家韩语电台的老板申昆树说:“这让我们质疑:移民及融入美国的过程到底对年轻的亚裔产生了怎样难言的压力。”
申昆树等人表示,他和其他多数韩裔青年的父母为了把他们送到美国读书,作出了重大的牺牲——有的放弃在韩国国内的较高职位,在美国从事层次较低的工作以便陪伴孩子;有的留在韩国赚钱,供孩子在美读书和生活,彼此都承受亲人分离之痛。
据韩国政府统计,2000年,约有4400名学龄孩童离开韩国到国外求学,到了2002年,有近1万名孩子出国读书。这些孩子多数移民美国。在马里兰州霍华德县,每年都有近400名韩国学生被各中小学录取。
而霍华德县的一位韩裔心理顾问说,男孩适应美国生活尤感困难。过去两年中,他曾为约20个韩裔男孩提供咨询,这些男孩功课跟不上,脾气暴躁,有的还滥用药物。
卢武铉:
尽力避免在美韩裔受影响
而在韩国国内,民众希望这场惨案不要催生对在美200多万韩裔的种族偏见。
韩国外交通商部的一位高级官员说,韩国政府对枪击案的“震惊难以言表”。就此次枪击案,韩国总统卢武铉继17日之后,18日再次致电美国布什总统,对遇难者表示哀悼,对遇难者家属表示慰问。卢武铉在慰问电中还说,韩国政府将尽力避免枪击案对在美工作和学习的韩裔产生影响。
也有一些韩国人认为,23岁的赵承熙1992年起就移居美国,因此不应被视为韩国人(尽管他仍持韩国护照),而且,“这是一桩个人事件。”韩国一家电视台的评论员说。
弗吉尼亚理工大学共有1600多名亚裔学生,其中包括763名韩裔本科生和研究生。

We also need to keep the shooter's family in our prayerful thoughts. It's not hard to imagine how his parents are feeling now. Having gone through all the hardships of raising a child and supported his college education up to the senior year--all through a small laundry business, they only reaped a lifeless body, disfigured by himself and loathed by many, and a lifetime nightmare created through no fault of their own.

韩国决定停止在美国有线新闻网播放韩国旅游广告
韩国观光公社(旅游局)18日表示,将暂时停播在美国有线新闻网(CNN)播放的旅游韩国宣传广告。
韩国观光公社最近推出了品牌为“KOREA,Sparkling”的旅游韩国宣传广告,并决定从4月16日开始在CNN播出。然而,美国弗吉尼亚理工大学校园枪击惨案的凶手被证实为韩裔后,韩国观光公社于惨案发生的第二天17日决定暂时停播该广告。
韩国观光公社做出判断,CNN电台将一整天报道这一严重事件的同时,如果插播有韩国传统音乐及影像的广告实在不太妥当。
韩国观光公社原本打算从4月16日至6月30日通过CNN播出时间为30秒的“KOREA,Sparkling”广告共68次。

咖啡店里已经有几个人说类似“一老读者”的话了。如果只有一个人说,我可以忽视;等几个人都说,肯定就是自己哪里确实出问题了。所以,关门回家修炼反省不失为好办法。:)

弗州校园枪手寄出"令人不安"包裹
美国媒体播放了赵承熙的录像
警方说,弗吉尼亚州理工大学案枪手赵承熙(音译)曾经向媒体寄出一个"令人不安"的包裹。
美国全国广播公司(NBC)表示,这个包裹包含了一些"令人不安"的照片、录像和写作,他显然是在两起枪击案的空档时间寄出这一邮件的。
这个邮件里的物品已交给联邦调查局进行检验。
在周一发生的校园枪击案造成33人死亡,包括枪手赵承熙。
弗吉尼亚州警察首长费海提说,在这起案件的调查中,这个包裹是非常新的和关键性的,当局正试图分析和评估其重要性。
枪手的"多媒体宣言"
美国全国广播公司说,从包裹上的时间戳涌来看,它显然是在宿舍和教学大楼的两次枪击杀人案件之间的两个小时内寄出的。
一名编辑说,他们在周三收到这个包裹,并把它形容为枪手的"多媒体宣言"。
警方说,枪手在这起枪击事件中使用相同的手枪,但未能绝对证实赵承熙都在现场。
当局还没有正式宣布23岁的赵承熙和这起校园枪击案有关联。

This piece is also disturbing to read, and makes you wonder--
"As soon as he started reading, the whole class started laughing and pointing and saying, `Go back to China,'" Davids said.
----------------------------------------------------
ZT
BLACKSBURG, Va. - Long before he boiled over, Virginia Tech gunman Cho Seung-Hui was picked on, pushed around and laughed at over his shyness and the strange way he talked whenhe was a schoolboy in the Washington suburbs, former classmates say.
Chris Davids, a Virginia Tech senior who graduated from Westfield High School in Chantilly, Va., with Cho in 2003, recalled that the South Korean immigrant almost never opened his mouth and would ignore attempts to strike up a conversation.
Once, in English class, the teacher had the students read aloud, and when it was Cho's turn, he just looked down in silence, Davids recalled. Finally, after the teacher threatened him with an F for participation, Cho started to read in a strange, deep voice that sounded "like he had something in his mouth," Davids said.
"As soon as he started reading, the whole class started laughing and pointing and saying, `Go back to China,'" Davids said.
Cho shot 32 people to death and committed suicide Monday in the deadliest one-man shooting rampage in modern U.S. history. The high school classmates' accounts add to the psychological portrait that is beginning to take shape, and could shed light on the video rant Cho mailed to NBC in the middle of his rampage at Virginia Tech.
In the often-incoherent video, the 23-year-old Cho portrays himself as persecuted and rants about rich kids.
"Your Mercedes wasn't enough, you brats," says Cho, who came to the U.S. in 1992 and whose parents work at a dry cleaners in suburban Washington. "Your golden necklaces weren't enough, you snobs. Your trust funds wasn't enough. Your vodka and cognac wasn't enough. All your debaucheries weren't enough. Those weren't enough to fulfill your hedonistic needs. You had everything."
Among the victims of the massacre were two other Westfield High graduates: Reema Samaha and Erin Peterson. Both young women graduated from the high school last year. Police said it is not clear whether Cho singled them out.
Stephanie Roberts, 22, a fellow member of Cho's graduating class at Westfield High, said she never witnessed anyone picking on Cho in high school.
"I just remember he was a shy kid who didn't really want to talk to anybody," she said. "I guess a lot of people felt like maybe there was a language barrier."
But she said friends of hers who went to middle school with Cho told her they recalled him getting picked on there.
"There were just some people who were really mean to him and they would push him down and laugh at him," Roberts said Wednesday. "He didn't speak English really well and they would really make fun of him."
Virginia Tech student Alison Heck said a suitemate of hers on campus — Christina Lilick — found a mysterious question mark scrawled on the dry erase board on her door. Lilick went to the same high school as Cho, according to Lilick's Facebook page. Cho once scrawled a question mark on the sign-in sheet on the first day of a literature class, and other students came to know him as "the question mark kid."
"I don't know if she knew that it was him for sure," Heck said. "I do remember that that fall that she was being stalked and she had mentioned the question mark. And there was a question mark on her door."
Heck added: "She just let us know about it just in case there was a strange person walking around our suite."
Lilick could not immediately be located for comment, via e-mail or telephone.
Regan Wilder, 21, who attended Virginia Tech, high school and middle school with Cho, said she was in several classes with Cho in high school, including advanced-placement calculus and Spanish. She said he walked around with his head down, and almost never spoke. And when he did, it was "a real low mutter, like a whisper."
As part of an exam in Spanish class, students had to answer questions in Spanish on tape, and other students were so curious to know what Cho sounded like that they waited eagerly for the teacher to play his recording, she said. She said that on the tape, he did not speak confidently but did seem to know Spanish.
Wilder recalled high school teachers trying to get him to participate, but "he would only shrug his shoulders or he'd give like two-word responses, and I think it just got to the point where teachers just gave up because they realized he wasn't going to come out of the shell he was in, so they just kind of passed him over for the most part as time went on."
She said she was sure Cho probably was picked on in middle school, but so was everyone else. And it didn't seem as if English was the problem for him, she said. If he didn't speak English well, there were several other Korean students he could have reached out to for friendship, but he didn't, she said.
Wilder said Cho wasn't any friendlier in college, where "he always had that same damn blank stare, like glare, on his face. And I'd always try to make eye contact with him because I recognized the kid because I'd seen him for six years, but he'd always just look right past you like you weren't there."
In other developments, Gov. Timothy Kaine is appointing a five- to seven-member panel to investigate the shootings, the governor's office said Thursday. The panel will review Cho's mental health history and how police responded to the tragedy. The panel will submit a report in two to three months.
University officials also announced that all of Cho's student victims would be awarded degrees posthumously, and that other students terrorized by the shootings might be allowed to end the semester immediately without consequences.
On Wednesday, NBC received a package containing a rambling and often incoherent 23-page written statement from Cho, 28 video clips and 43 photos — many of them showing Cho, in a military-style vest and backward baseball cap, brandishing handguns. A Postal Service time stamp reads 9:01 a.m. — between the two attacks on campus.
The package helped explain one mystery: where the gunman was and what he did during that two-hour window between the first burst of gunfire, at a high-rise dorm, and the second attack, at a classroom building.
"You had a hundred billion chances and ways to have avoided today," a snarling Cho says on video. "But you decided to spill my blood. You forced me into a corner and gave me only one option. The decision was yours. Now you have blood on your hands that will never wash off."
Col. Steve Flaherty, superintendent of the Virginia State Police, said Thursday that the material contained little they did not already know. Flaherty said he was disappointed that NBC decided to broadcast parts of it.
"I just hate that a lot of people not used to seeing that type of image had to see it," he said.
On NBC's "Today" show Thursday, host Meredith Vieira said the decision to air the information "was not taken lightly." Some victims' relatives canceled their plans to speak with NBC because they were upset over the airing of the images, she said.
"I saw his picture on TV, and when I did I just got chills," said Kristy Venning, a junior from Franklin County, Va. "There's really no words. It shows he put so much thought into this and I think it's sick."
There has been some speculation, especially among online forums, that Cho may have been inspired by the South Korean movie "Oldboy." One of the killer's mailed photos shows him brandishing a hammer — the signature weapon of the protagonist — and in a pose similar to one from the film.
The film won the Grand Prix prize at the Cannes Film Festival in 2004. It is about a man unjustly imprisoned for 15 years. After escaping, he goes on a rampage against his captor.
Authorities on Thursday disclosed that more than a year before the massacre, Cho had been accused of sending unwanted messages to two women and was taken to a psychiatric hospital on a magistrate's orders and was pronounced a danger to himself. But he was released with orders to undergo outpatient treatment.
Also, Cho's twisted, violence-filled writings and menacing, uncommunicative demeanor had disturbed professors and students so much that he was removed from one English class and was repeatedly urged to get counseling.

I guess things like these started to happen since he was a immigrant child. Of course his English accent got less and less as he grew up, or may even completely disappear that he entered VT just like native speakers, but the humiliation and insult stay forever.

我看了一段录象,这个孩子的英文口音非常重,他八岁来美,这是很奇怪的;但是想想他不与人交流也就不怪了。至今没有看到对他家人的直接报道,我都不能想像他的父母姐姐会是什么样的心情和处境。
他有mental health problem是无庸质疑的。这惨案对所有人都是悲剧,虽然可以从导致他行为的社会环境上找根源,我是觉着这枪真是该禁了。一个人在成长过程中出了问题,走向极端,在任何社会,特别是开放社会,都是防不胜防,无法根治,却可以在技术上制造些障碍,降低频率和程度。这个孩子合法地在两个月内买了两支枪,因为Virgina法律一人一个月最多购枪一支。我要是想弄它十几条枪械,有点儿耐心,离家门不远,一年就弄齐了,想着都恐怖。
当然也许会有人说,还是大家持枪不够,若是那些教授学生里有人有枪。。。哼哼,若真碰上讲这样混帐话的人,我倒不知是该哭还是笑了。
我真希望对这个惨案痛定思痛,可以出一些正面的结果,多半又是奢望。 - Re: 美国校园枪击22死 21伤posted on 04/19/2007

Completely agree with FuSheng on this point. It takes two things for this kind of MASS KILLING to happen. 1. A crazy person, mentally ill most probably. 2. Access to weapons capable of mass killing (such as guns). As Fusheng pointedly said, there is little you can do with # 1, but we can at least make the access to weapon of mass killing much harder. That way we can likely reduce the probability of this kind horrific tragedy to the very minimum.
Some gun advocates argue that "Gun does not kill. People kill." that is true. But people without gun will not be able to kill so easily, and in such a massive scale. To the determined killers, anything can become a weapon, be it a rock, a kife, or a stick. But nothing but gun can make mass killing so effortless.
In terms of self-defense, I do not think gun is the solution. On the contrary, I think the runaway easy access to guns have made self-defense all the more difficult, even with a gun at your disposal. Rephrasing waht Ron Reagan once said: "Gun will not solve the problem. Gun is the problem."

再完善的法律也有漏洞。比如依法精神病人无权买枪,赵去过精神病院,并被诊断有自害可能,但他是‘自动’去医院检查的,因此档案里没有纪录,漏网了。
我的感觉,学校里上课时,楼道里如果有校警巡逻察看,VT这样规模的惨案就可以避免了。

不是也许,VT 的有些学生已经如是说了。私人拥有枪支对入室抢劫有一定威慑作用,但对在公共场所滥杀无辜没有作用,除非人手一枪。这是一个个人权利和公众利益的平衡问题,有人为前者牺牲后者,走的实在太远了。 - Re: 美国校园枪击22死 21伤posted on 04/19/2007

提几个讨论问题:
1. 假设人人拥有枪支可以防止抢劫, 请问当案犯突然入室的时候, 谁的手上正握有枪?
2. 在私拥枪支非法的国家, 抢劫、杀人的比率比美国高多少?
3. 假如只允许合法拥有猎枪长度以上的枪支, 私人住户能否实现威慑性自卫? National Rifle Association的会员能否继续实现打猎的乐趣? 公共场所的大规模屠杀是否可能大幅度避免?

是应该禁枪的. 我见过好些人家里藏枪, 而且给我看过. 大多数是自动连发的, 一扣扳机, 对方绝无生还机会. 我当时就劝说他们, 不怕家里的TEENAGE误用了吗? 至少换一种杀伤力很小的.
我初到美国硅谷, 当时单身住在一个社区一段时间. 前面的租客放一把大榔头在床下. 我当时还笑, 我都拿不动. 所幸一直平安. 前几年在中国, 读到旅美一个女作家写的小说, 写一个单身华人女住客被人侵入强暴后寻求公正, 她公开此事后, 反而被华人社会说闲话. 那是另一个主题. 我读了后, 不免后怕.
以前在美国, 一直以为美国是最安全的. 但是, 有两件事情打破了安全感. 一个是911, 太恐怖了. 一个是华尔街的股市风云.

支持个人拥有枪支主要是为了给个人以对抗政府的能力,使政府和政府官员不敢为所欲为。这是美国政治体制的一个重要支柱。不是为了对付罪犯。我到美国第一个月就被教育不要自己跟罪犯搏斗,有问题报警。

不得不服啊,这句是非常非常的经典。
当政府的警察过来,向你喊叫的第一句是什么? "drop your weapon, hands up, freeze, don't move........" 你端着枪不就是挑衅警察直接开火吗?
有能力对抗政府? 公民持枪是针对早期西部开发时候的政府形同虚设而言,现在小布什有了原子弹,每个公民是否有必要去搞点浓缩铀玩玩呢?
如果是为了权力制肘,就现在普通公民这点武力,你还未走近离白宫五百米距离就被阻击手点击了。

这是美国建国早期增加第二修正案的原因,但事到如今,这个理由很难成立了。政府的错误从来不是靠人民手里的枪得到纠正的。这个第二修正案已经过时了。

这是不错的。不过罪犯扳机一抠,搏斗报警都不要谈。
问题是,现在支持个人拥枪的还是拿给自己以抵抗政府的能力为理由么?来福枪协会的人多数是政府的“朋友“。记得老布什就是成员,他有什么理由?自卫,保家卫国,防止监守自盗?
现在的美国政府若有暴政倾向,两年,四年,必定是选下去了,难道老百姓还揭杆而起不成?更何况,我有两把半自动手枪就对抗的了政府了么?带一把指甲刀连安全门都过不了。结果是只能用来对付手无寸铁的人和动物。
个人拥枪是野蛮时代的产物,那时的美国刚从独立战争中出来,脱离了英国王室的欺压。我们如今虽未脱离野蛮,毕竟文明多了,法律也要与时共进。现在允许个人拥枪,尊重了少数人recreation的权利,违反了大多数人的生存和安全的权利,孰重孰轻?等到校园里都要警察巡逻的时候,还有自由可谈么?

这里“政府”应该是指每天跟老百姓打交道的基层政府。一个人举只小手枪去挑战联邦政府是挺可笑(也没有理由吧)。不过,面对有枪的民众,县里的地税核查员或者食品卫生检察员还是会稍微有一点点顾忌的吧?
美国各地发展很不均衡。记得念书时开车闲逛,去过一个俄亥俄山里的小镇。做梦也没想到在街上走着竟然被围观,后边跟一串小孩,马路对面的行人都停下来不走了。一问,说从来没见过外国人。镇里的店员不知道怎么收信用卡,从来没使过。这样的地方,sheriff 横行起来不是玩的。
支持持枪的主要是中部和南部,我相信他们是有理由的。 - posted on 04/20/2007

浮生MM,美国大学校园里从来都有警察巡逻,只是他们目前的重点不是教学楼,而是周边和街道。
目前美国有39%的家庭有枪,有54%左右美国人支持拥枪权,不支持公民拥枪的人里又有大约一半认为坚持宪法赋予的权力是很重要的。美国人民是极其不信任政府的,他们担心失去拥枪权只是政府阴谋的第一步,担心接下来会带来更多公民权力的失落和联邦权力的坐大。
老百姓手里的轻武器当然不足以对抗政府,但是根据宪法拥有枪支在美国被多数人看做是公民权力的象征,并没有计划用来抵抗政府的合法行为。
挪威和法国公民拥有枪支的比例接近美国。瑞士是民兵制,国家的枪放在民间。以色列也是全民皆兵。这些国家还没有发生过类似惨案。德国和加拿大限制枪支但并未能够防止校园屠杀。“枪不杀人,人杀人“这句话有一定道理。
我坚决支持我的公民伙伴们通过合法手段修改宪法取缔我的持枪权。:-)

与小布什的反恐斗争如出一辙,为避免这类悲剧的再次发生,就需要杜绝极端份子与杀伤武器的结合点。也就是要么颁布法律禁枪,要么颁布法律限制极端分子的社会活动,或者干脆立法禁止极端分子的产生(人人都必须当主流了)。
我身处中南部,对于这个敏感问题,与几个美国同事交换过意见,非常表层的,因为根本无法深入讨论。其中DN说,枪支不是问题,我从小就是在农场扛着枪长大。我说,悲剧事件总是统计意义上的千分之一,甚至千万分之一,满大街的普通市民人人持枪,并无法排除极端分子的个别行为。MB却说, 禁枪不管用,犯罪分子总能想办法找到枪,比如加拿大云云。我说,那政府又何必煞费心思去禁烟禁酒?要抽要喝不总找得到地方去消遣? 我们当地刚发生一起十八岁学生酒后驾车的交通命案,警方正在调查给未成年人提供酒者。
九九教授说的民众对政府不信任,是共和党的一贯主张,但我不知道民众持枪能解决多少信任危机的问题。在资本社会,这个说到底是一个成本问题,禁枪的成本与各级社会机构越来越大的保安预算如何相比,正如同国安部无孔不入的反恐开销与掠夺伊拉克的石油利润如何相比?对于这些,估计在校平均成绩C_的小布什早就心算好了。
当然有人会说公民的持枪自由神圣不可剥夺,更不能用货币计算,那么这些逐年增多的枪击受害者的生命又如何少一分神圣?又该如何计量呢?

Aftermath thought:
1. I do not see enough justification for BNC & other media to show the video & picture of the gunman repeatedly. It did not help the public or the athority to seek out solution. It gave the victims' family and survivors sinking feeling for the nightmare they had. It gave other mad or lost people out there a very good hint to get their voice & face known for whatever wicked plan they wanted or are going to carry out.
2. Chinese communities or organizations should seek class legal action upon some media for spreading unverified news which projected a very bad image on Chinese nationals as a whole.
