I suspect he read it along the way - but I have no evidence at this point in time.
A law enforcement official who read Cho's note described it Tuesday as a typed, eight-page rant against rich kids and religion. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.
"You caused me to do this," the official quoted the note as saying.
Cho indicated in his letter that the end was near and that there was a deed to be done, the official said. He also expressed disappointment in his own religion, and made several references to Christianity, the official said.
This kid was in pain for years. My parents live quite near his hometown and heard an interview with high school classmates that indicated that he has been alienated for years.
He probably is depressed at least, perhaps even schizophrenic. I’m generalizing, but I guess that the family and his church had traditional Asian characteristics—hard work, stoicism and achievement above all. He couldn’t achieve, was in pain and the community would not recognize mental illness as anything more than a weakness.
Then he hears the church preach about the love of God. In his paranoid, delusional mind, the church’s inaction is the ultimate denial of his pain.
It comes out in his rantings.
Yes. There is no salvation outside of the Church, none.
People have been known to register domains to prevent others from doing just that. Wait and see.
This is the caption accompanying the picture of the girl I can’t copy from the crossfather blog:

And this message appears on page 4 of the crossfather blog:

Islam, Prozac and jealousy—a deadly combination.
Thanks Veto - I didn’t know that he was going off Effexor cold turkey until after the event. This happened 3 years ago, and out of sensitivity to the family, I’ve never pursued if someone (friend or family) had encouraged him to stop taking his medication.
Agree with your assessment of Ismael Ax. Applying that story to the facts of the case, how do you interpret the meaning as it applies to Cho et al?
Interesting read.
Chain from closet shelf.
A couple of padlocks.
...and first confirmation that a bomb threat note was found at the scene.
Hmmmm...search warrant applied for looking into “instructional manuals for acts of destruction and acts of terror” Found some tools and some books and some writings and some graph paper. Strangely (not) no “violent video games played under the name Ismail Ax” are mentioned.
