There were others that said they heard at least 50, and that CNN tape had 27 at least...

So i'm thinking there was a lot more..

And he probably died a happy man after acting on his frustrations, denying to others what he couldn't have himself.

Sadly, that may not be the case...

(* - although I'm not sure where Bob got this information from).

The above shouldn't matter one way or the other. An absolutely tragic, horrific event. Words cannot do it justice.

It seems barely a day goes by anymore without something happening to make me ashamed to be a human. I hope the friends and families of all those involved, surivors and victims alike, can find solace.

Story from someone who was in the room while he was shooting people. Chilling.

His name is apparently James Jay Kim. Apparently.

Someone posted a blog on MySpace timestamped (which is hard to forge?) at 6:19AM.

Time To Blow It All
Current mood: determined



Hopefully my devised plan will work for my fellow comrade. People view this world from an optimistic prospective. This is clearly not the case… Hopefully through the events which will unfold today, people will view this world from the cynical point of view as we do.


This world has been failing for a long time, and it's not long before the world will fall upon itself. We are just here to give the world an extra nudge along it's destructive journey.

I suspect, I'll be trialed as an accomplice as I hope. In this glory of fame, I'll be able to argue my point of view, and share it with others. And you'll listen to me, due to I'm in the spotlight, and you'll have to. You'll be wondering, what encouraged me, to create a scheme for my friend to murder so many… what encouraged me to manipulate him to cause such mass damage? I've already said...



Hopefully my friend will succeed... if not, I'll have to choose another.

------------

Don't know how real this is, probably not very, but either or it's SICK.

Was that supossedly posted by James Kim on his blog and the accomplice is in his mind, or is it another actual person claiming to have planned it out for James Kim?

You hear it every time one of these things happens...it's the rest of the world that is screwed up and they are showing all just how bad it is, they are the "sane" ones.

So if you don't see the world thru absolutely convoluted eyes as these morons do, you are the enemy.

Just ridiculous.
