I don't know if it's been put out there but the WORST killing spree in the WORLD was perpetrated by a Korean WITH ACCESS TO GUN (American style...well, virtually)

Between 800,000 and 1,071,000 people were massacred in Rwanda in April, 1994.

And don't get me started on Pol Pot, & the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. (2 million people were systematically murdered there between April 1975->1979.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pol_Pot

Or the Holocaust (6 million) in WWII, but granted, the latter was not recent.

I think he has a point. Some people have been blaming Koreans. However, I don't think most Americans in the United States are blaming Koreans. However, many teachers who have experienced Korean racism, taxi drivers ignoring foreigners, being barred entry to some places, some friends being jumped by Koreans etc... This leads some to have a negative reaction towards many Koreans. Is it fair? No, but you must admit that when two Korean girls were killed by accident by some American soldiers some teachers were refused service in some places, though they weren't even soldiers. Of course, some Americans who say well remember how Koreans started blaming other foreigners when things went wrong, we all know how a Sikh Indian was killed in America after Sept.11th. Ignorance exists all over the world, and it is our ignorance that causes the pain out there.

Obviously, this young Korean man who murdered many people had psychological problems. Did his parents ensure he had proper treatment for his psychological problems or did they ignore his psychological problems. This is something I would like to know.

Shooting sprees happen all over the world. I know of one that happened in England, two in Canada, several in America, and there was a Korean soldier who killed his fellow soldiers. I do think, though, the easy access to weapons is a serious problem in the United States. It is better to have a crazed guy punch you than shoot you.

It is not only in America where people go nuts and shoot. A Korean man did that in 1982 and not long ago a Korean soldier shot his mates and threw a hand grenade.

I don't know any Korean who would go to a psychologist.

I don't see Koreans being blamed. What I do see is that most folks look at this as a nut gone off his nut doing bad things. And now we see that he was commited to an asylum in '05. If so, why was he allowed to buy the glock that he used. There is a criminal background check. Why no database on those who have been committed? Oh, I guess this would stigmatize the "mentally ill", and we can't do that, could we? When you buy a fire arm- ANY fire you sign a form stating that you haven't been institutionalized. Couple that with a data base and this guy doesn't buy his piece ( legally).

I don't know what the OP is thinking. Rolling Eyes

A few years ago, two American GI's accidently killed two Korean schoolgirls. Your entire country when completely insane, demanding all Americans go home (I remember a crowd of people chanting in English "AMELICA GO HOME! AMELICA GO HOME!") --even banning foreigners from some bars and restaurants!

I remember a German guy wanting to go into a bar, but he was not allowed in simply because he was a foreigner. How pathetic is that?

Do you see restauarnts in America putting out signs on their establishments "No Koreans!" after this incident?

No, you don't.

But now a Korean intentionally kills dozens of students, and you and your national media and even foreign minister are all worried about Korea's "face" and suddenly calling for people to not blame Korea?

Hypocrite. <--- Do you know this word?

Once again, the Koreans turn around into "we are the victims" mode.

Frankly, the international community is getting sick of it. It's immature and childish.

Instead of using animalistic instincts or child-like, uncontrolled emotion when writing, you should try instead using reason, facts, and logic. You will get a lot more respect from international circles if you do.

At the end of the day, the facts are what shape the history books.
