Current Affairs - The opinions of a grumpy old pouf

 
Doug Pollard is a veteran gay journalist, columnist, commentator, and broadcaster specialising in GLBTI issues, based in Melbourne Australia. He often works with Rob Mitchell of the RJM Trust, "We are separate independent and unaffiliated guerilla campaigners and advocates, and the best of mates: nimble, fast-moving, unconventional and above all aiming to drive rapid change", he says.

Thoughts on the Virgina Tech gunman

The more that comes out about this 23 year old south Korean man responsible for the massacre of 32 people at Virginia Tech, the more chilling it gets, it seems he was totally into death even writing gory death scenes using his classmates mates as characters in some of these plays he wrote, he even sent the seven page letter he wrote just after the first shooting to a high profile news organisation along with a video in which he said that the massacre could have been avoided and he balmed the students of Virginia Tech for what was about to happen.
It is pretty clear that he wasn't mentally stable and it sounds as though it comes across in the plays he wrote and the way he behaved around the university, very similar behaviour to that of the man who committed the Port Arthur massacre in Tasmania in 1996 because from what I remember of that Martin Bryant was also a loner like the young man responsible for this tragic incident.


My sympathies go to the families and friends of the victims and that I am thinking about you all.
Peace everyone.
