    In a Associated Press story on Cho Seung-Hai, the student who perpetrated the massacre at Virginia Tech University, was described as being a loner who spent time on his computer and watching TV, noting he watched Friday night wrestling. The article said, "He (roomate Karan Grewal) he said Cho usually worked alone on his computer and watched TV, including Friday night wrestling. He was always alone; in the dining hall, watching television, working out with weights in the gym. He rarely spoke to anyone." Also MSNBC's "Hardball with Chris Matthews" noted this fact too.    Saw this on another forum site and thought it was interesting.

    I fail to see how Smackdown is linked to the massacre. SD! didn't play any role what-so-ever in him going Koo-Koo for Cocoa Puffs and murdering 30 innocent students. You could have easily attributed his mental state on his lack of social skills, internet surfing or even issues within his family. SD! had nothing to do with this. If he played PS2, they would probably blame his rampage on Grand Theft Auto. Everyone is so busy searching for a reason or scapegoat for his actions that they're forgetting that he was an adult responsible for his own actions. It's too bad he blew himself away because I'd like to see him hang for this.

    What you "quoted" never linked the two at all.

    I don't see why they brought up the fact that he watched smackdown. Are they trying to blame the WWE on this?

    A lot of Americans would love to see the world go medieval on that guy.

    This isn't shocking anything the media can do to take a shot at WWE they will.

    I agree, it seems like people are too idiotic to realize that it almost never has to do with things like that. That bastard got off easy too.

    I doubt Snoop Dogg watches Raw and the female fan who said the divas are as talented as the men... c'mon.

    Did you guys know that Osama is a fan of wrestling? Uh-oh. Wrestling is responsible for terrorism.

    WWE had nothing to do with the Virginia Tech Massacre but if they blame WWE & WWE gets killed & never comes back I'd be o.k. with that.
