Va. Tech gunman sent material to NBC By MATT APUZZO, AP National Writer

BLACKSBURG, Va. - Between his first and second bursts of gunfire, the Virginia Tech gunman mailed a package to NBC News containing what authorities said were video, photos of himself brandishng weapons, and a rambling diatribe about getting even with rich people.
"This may be a very new, critical component of this investigation. We're in the process right now of attempting to analyze and evaluate its worth," said Col. Steve Flaherty, superintendent of Virginia State Police. He gave no details on the material.
NBC said that a time stamp on the package indicated the material was mailed in the two-hour window between the first burst of gunfire in a high-rise dormitory and the second fusillade, at a classroom building.
The package included digital images of him holding weapons and a manifesto that "rants against rich people and warns that he wants to get even," according to a law enforcement official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about the case.
NBC said it immediately turned the package over to authorities on Wednesday. NBC would not disclose the contents beyond characterizing the material as "disturbing." The package was sent to NBC News head Steve Capus.
If the package was indeed mailed between the first attack and the second, that would help explain where Cho was and what he did during that two-hour window.

Rich people = infidels? 0 -
Ya and all we see is the pictures of the guns and him over and over on every channel, they talk about his mental condition and if he would have been involantary commited he would been able to purchase them. They forget that had the girl filed the stalking charges and got a PFA (protection from abuse order) he would have not been able to get the guns eaither BUT WAIT AND SEE THE NEW GUNS LAWS THAT THEY WILL TRY TOO GET NOW FROM THIS BAD SITURATION. 0 -
Please. Does anyone who has paid even minimal attention over the past two days believe that anything less than imprisonment or death could have prevented this? 0 -

They said right on the NBC news last night, before they aired parts of the tape, they had made copies of it...
Listening to the killer speak sends chills....they are going to air more of it but I didnt catch when...probably a special broadcast..0 -

Yep, they learned their lesson from Columbine quite well. Those records have been sealed for 25 years. NBC didn't want to lose the ability to show that if a similar ruling occurred.0 -
He hated the wealthy? I am surprised that the little freak was not posting on GB along with all of the others who can't stand the idea of anyone having it good in life. Were does the mandatory Gun Broker link to Islam fit into this? I think (using GB logic) that he was probably recruited by North Korea as a child and then made into a sleeper agent. The Gripe Group already has stated that we should be at war with North Korea (along with Syria and Iran) so this would fit the bill nicely. Since north Korea is very tight with China he was probably also behind the poisoned pet foods as well. 0 -
They said he bought the Walther p22 from an online gun auction and had it shipped to a FFL at Blacksburg. He may have used gunbroker, the transaction was in February 2007. 0 -
What, somebody engaged in uncontrolled ranting against the wealthy and the Elites? Now why would they be considered nuts? 0 -
Blckhrn said "Rich people = infidels?"
Another way to look at it. Not rich people = Communist.0 -

Maybe we can get Dennis Kucinich toi outlaw rich folks.
That would save as many lives as outlawing handguns.0 -
...Cho's delusional thoughts just manefested themselves as "hate the rich", "debauchery", etc., the little chit was just evil; but that is too EASY an explanation...[;)]

Colt has it. This is not reason, this is a sad delusional guy casting himself as a Quintin Tarentino Minja character. All you are seing is symptoms manafesting as reasons. There is no external logic to the workings of a delusional mind. Is it not enough that the guy was just flat mentally ill? 0 -

Nope, it's possible for both to make a profit and be better off for the transaction. It's called "consumer surplus".[:)]0 -
Now that NBC has made the decision to help this nutjob achieve his goal, we'll undoubtedly see even more. Copycat incidents are expected over time, but they've increased the chance many times over. How many fence-sitting whack's eyes lit up when they saw this worldwide outlet for their delusional thinking?
What they're peddling are nothing more than psychotic ramblings, not any sort of solid information to help us understand why this happened.
It's really no surprise they took the low road.0 -
He was an obedient soldier of the left - a true Marxist fighting for the poor enslaved workers of the evil capitalist oppressors. 0 -
Searching for logic within the insane ravings of a madman is a fool's game. 0 -
There is no reason. It defies reason. For once, I saw a talking head on TV say something reasonable: The guy is clearly mentally ill, and his ravings are not worthy of comment. The issue is why was this guy not getting treatment? 0 -
they are working on it....

He said, "he was going to die like Jesus Christ so the little guy could have a voice in the world." I think he totally missed the point! (In the world of Psychotherapy this is called the "Jesus Christ Syndrome" ... this guy was one sick dude ... too bad no one connected the dots and realized that he was going to snap.
VERY SAD ... the whole thing is very sad. Lots of people are suffering now ... think of his parents, parents & brothers & sisters of the people he killed. Man, this is too heavy ... only the Holy Spirit can comfort those in this mess. Let's keep up the prayer support.0
