And about this Cho character…You did this because you hated debaucherous rich kids? Buddy, you went to VIRGINIA FREAKING TECH! It is the school the kids at UVA look down on as being the cheap-beer drinking Ag school full of white trash and kids too stupid to get into Charlottesville. I think Cho would have lasted roughly three hours at UM before he killed half of Coral Gables. Okay, I know he was crazy but his rage just seems a little misplaced. I don’t recall seeing too many BMW’s parked around Blacksburg. And aside from the football players, I have yet to meet a group of Hokies with a penchant for fine cognac. Or vodka. “Your Natty Light and your Milwaukee’s Best weren’t enough? Your F150’s and Camaros weren’t enough?” That might have made some sense.
Virginia Tech is venerable institution renowned for its science and engineering programs. It is quite competitive and attracts Bill Gates wannabes from across the country. The campus beautiful, tranquil in a peaceful mountain setting. The culture is anything but unrefined.
But even in the face of tragedy, this guy can't resist taking a dig at his old highschool rivals. Scumbag.

High School? No, college, actually. And that reputation of VA Tech comes solely from my many, many friends who live in that state and all view it along thesame lines as Washington State, Florida State, Auburn, NC State, Oregon State or any other land-grant institutino (okay, FSU is not a land-grant school, but oyu get the idea) that is generally attended by the students who could qualify for a four-year school but not the state's preeminent institution. We all know how these rivalries work. And who says just because something bad happens somewhere you can't mantion anything negatvie about them anymore?
There's such a thing as a period of respect, though...
