Cho Seung-Hui Morality and Debauchery
OK. Let's discuss morality and debauchery.
Let it be said unequivocally that I would have preferred if Cho Seung-
Hui had used the abilities that he honed as an English major
constructively and had gone on to contribute to the efforts of the
people you'll find mentioned on this URL:

(Yes, this is a pitch.)
However, I understand that this man did not have the emotional
resources to be able to channel his outrage constructively. Not all
do.
Rather than elaborating in detail on what I think about Cho Seung-Hui,
whom I consider a Attent=E4ter par excellence; I will allow those whom I
consider to have expressed the issues most eloquently to speak for
me.
"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick
society."- Krishnamurthi
"Oftentimes have I heard you speak of one who commits a wrong as
though he were not one of you, but a stranger unto you and an intruder
upon your world.
But I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond
the highest which is in each one of you,
So the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is
in you also.
And as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of
the whole tree,
So the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all...
And this also, though the word lie heavy upon your hearts:
The murdered is not unaccountable for his own murder...
The righteous is not innocent of the deeds of the wicked." THE
PROPHET by Kahlil Gibran
