Please hug an Asian today.

Seung-hui Cho too is going to heaven, since this world as we know it was his hell.

How this can be prevented: endeavor to socialize any one who chooses to hide from the world outside, protect them and yourselves from bullies, display honesty and sincerity, refraining from using privilege of social status to abuse or subject to abuse other people, moderating substance use - be it alcohol, tobacco etc, reporting hate crime - no matter how trivial, practising religious tolerance...

Seung-Hui Cho - complained of debauchery, deceitful charlatans and rich kids.

In avoiding him, we failed him. In laughing at him, we failed him. In letting him be, we failed him.
