People like Seung Hui Cho make me wonder if there is a hell or not, I hope he goes to his hell.

@ jcgerstine1You sir are a f**king idiot, go back to wherever cave you came from. To even THINK about playing your retarded anti-semite card is an injustice and slap in the face to all those who died yesterday, do you even have a brain left or have you been so brainwashed into thinking you are some kind of elite race. Shut the f**k up and go kill yourself, I never want to hear your bulls**t again.

Oh, HERO HERO SO GREAT, WE LOVE YOU, hope for humanity, makes me feel all warm n' fuzzy. ITS GREAT HOW PPL HAVE TO DIE FOR US TO ACKNOWLEDGE THEM.Three weeks ago if you had come across this particular individual on the the street, what would you have said? Oh, nothing? Yeah, you're probably right. What if life took him in a different direction and he happened to have been working as your mechanic, plumber, or have been asking for a dollar on the side of the road. Would you have given two s**ts about a word that came out of his mouth?Look at all these people; such kind-hearted, loving, souls on digg. But why aren't they commenting on all the other stories? Why are they replaced by immature, ignorant, assh**es.Anyways, condolences to all the victim's families and especially the shooter's. And all the people who's lived were changed by this event. The dead, the injured, and the people who are fine on the outside but just don't see the bright side of life anymore.Makes you proud to be from where he's from? Damn, guess the design of people where I'm from didn't include the "capacity for good" update.

Regardless of your religious affiliation, I invite all Diggers to join me in a prayer of remembrance for this great man.Words of the Mourner's Kaddish in Hebrew and in EnglishHebrew Transliteration:Yit-gadal v'yit-kadash sh'mey raba, b'alma di v'ra hirutey, vyam-lih mal-hutey b'ha-yey-hon uv'yomey-hon uv'ha-yey d'hol beyt yisrael ba-agala u-vizman kariv, v'imru amen. Y'hey sh'mey raba m'varah l'alam ul'almey alma-ya.Yit-barah v'yish-tabah v'yit-pa-ar v'yit-romam v'yit-na-sey v'yit-hadar v'yit-aleh v'yit-halal sh'mey d'kud-sha, b'rih hu, leyla min kol bir-hata v'shi-rata tush-b'hata v'ne-hemata da-amiran b'alma, v'imru amen.Y'hey sh'lama raba min sh'ma-ya, v'ha-yim aleynu v'al kol yisrael, v'imru amen.Oseh shalom bim-romav, hu ya-aseh shalom aleynu v'al kol yisrael, v'imru. AMEN.English Translation-Magnified and sanctified be God's great name in the world which He has created according to His will. May He establish His kingdom soon, in our lifetime. Let us say: Amen.May His great name be praised to all eternity.Hallowed and honored, extolled and exalted, adored and acclaimed be the name of the Holy One, though He is above all the praises, hymns, and songs of adoration which men can utter. Let us say: Amen.May God grant abundant peace and life to us and to all Israel. Let us say: Amen.May He who ordains harmony in the heavens above grant peace to us and to all Israel. And let us say: AMEN.

I'm not too sure of that...Most religions frown on suicide...
mekongcolaApr 18, 2007
"By your logic, Jesus' death was suicide also"Yes, if he knew his actions would kill him, then that would in fact be suicide.Perhapse you should use a dictionary before you comment.

That's the thing about horrible events like this: Even in times of the worst atrocities there are stories of heroism and courage like this that give us hope for the future.It is actions like these that must never be forgotten, for they are what remind us that all is not lost for humanity.There is still good in us despite all the evil we perpetrate upon each other.

Wow, fantastic, digg, I say one morsel of truth but NO, you f**king digg me down, you pieces of s**t. I hate digg.

@fuisgofgLook, for once and for always. A murderer is NOT the same as his victims. Cho is NOT a victim. He is a killer. He will go to hell and spend eternity in agony.Let me spell it out again very clearly, ok ?You had a gun. It has 2 ends. The handle is held by a murderous bastard who will burn in hell for all eternity, and was even too coward to face up to his punishment in this life. He deserves every bit of punishment he will receive. He destroyed lives, and ran. He is a despicable coward.On the other end there were people who had nothing to do with him. They are victims, and they deserve to be remembered. They were killed by a great evil. I pray for them.Obviously since we don't know everything that was going on here we're not 100% sure about this. God, however, has no such limitations. We can only do the best we can, and it will be enough, and he will judge, both us and Cho.And yes this had nothing to with South Koreans. They're just here trying to learn, or searching a better life, or perhaps even on vacation. Cho is PERSONALLY responsible for his actions.
tomcppApr 21, 2007
No he didn't. Regardless of the heroism of this last act, you should not denounce his life in any way. He probably did much MUCH more good before this final act. It's just sad this act had to be his last.His legacy is his LIFE, not his death.

Dugg, because this glorifies the victims of this atrocity, not the evil man who committed it.
