THE grandad of university mass killer Cho Seung-Hui said last night: "Son of a bitch. He deserved to die.
"It's better not to have such a child in the family." And he dismissed Cho - diagnosed with autism as an eight-year-old - as "a trouble-causer who has destroyed his mother's life". Kim Hyang-Sik, 81, spoke at his home in South Korea after seeing the video Cho made of himself holding a gun to his head.
Student Cho, 23, shot dead 32 at Virginia Tech University before killing himself.
So autism is this hours excuse?
Didn’t look or sound autistic to me!
They said he didn’t speak. That’s one of the classic signs of autism.
If he was autistic, then I blame his family for not taking better care of him.
This is very sad.
How sadd blame your grandson even if he was austric or not DUDE that cold
Asperger’s.. high functioning Autism spectrum. Could be caused by a number of factors including food intolerance. Likely to be milk based on his ethnicity and the typical American diet.
Doesn’t matter, he’s burning in hell. But it makes sense diagnostically. I’m sure God will remind him others have dealt with worse.
Did he really have autism? Or something more like very early schizophrenia? Whatever was wrong with him was far more than autism.
If this story about Cho is true, whatever he had, it breaks my heart. A little boy unreachable or maybe unreached slipping deeper into delusion and evil, paranoia and rage.
My son has autism and I know other people with autism. They don’t look like that, the frozen upper face. They don’t talk like that. They’re sometimes odd, frustrating, off-putting, but not scary - at least not to those who know autistic people.

There was another thread (the long original perhaps?) where someone was talking about Asperger’s.
My Uncle Cho was a meanie! Yuck! He made me want to vomit!
When I learn to speak, I'll tell you more...
"Sprinkles" Seung-Hoi
I’m not sure about the burning part, but he’s good and dead, that’s for sure.
Well I can’t speak authoritatively but if I had to venture a guess.. lol
Gramps is right.
When you’ve raised such a difficult child, then you will be fit to judge. Do not be in a hurry to go there.
My daughter has brain damage. She is only 10, so we’ll have to see what she is like when she is a grown up. She does have very bad temper tantrums, still.
They are much better now that she’s older, but I don’t think I would ever want her to be able to own a gun. She’s very impulsive.
So I already know there are things to watch for with her. What happens when I’m not around? Can we somehow prevent her from legally purchasing guns/ammo? How can parents help these young adults live on their own successfully?
Who’s making exscuses? It makes sense to study his background so we can spot the next psycho.
I saw an “expert” on today who was analyzing him on the video and saying no to Schizophrenia... said he didn’t fit that particular mental disease... he was too organized and methodical..
Liberals cannot cope with tragedy without absolving individuals of wrongdoing. They believe the human race is collectively evil, and that Karma will sort things out eventually... that is if communist policies should (unthinkably) fail... but no individual is ever to blame.
Anyways, autism is just one excuse -- they would dream up another were it not immediately available for print and publication.
Granddads shouldn’t call grandkids ‘son of a bitch’ unless they hate their daughter/in law..
Milk ejecting through the nostrils, AS WE SPEAK!! LOL
Grand pa is harsh in the extreme. A touchy feely family: not so much.
