some thing i found on the
net.BLACKSBURG, Va. - Midway
through his murderous rampage,
the Virginia Tech gunman went
to the post office and mailed
NBC a package containing
photos and videos of him
brandishing guns and
delivering a snarling,
profanity-laced tirade about
rich 'brats' and their
'hedonistic needs.''You had a
hundred billion chances and
ways to have avoided today,'
23-year-old Cho Seung-Hui says
in a harsh monotone. 'But you
decided to spill my blood. You
forced me into a corner and
gave me only one option. The
decision was yours. Now you
have blood on your hands that
will never wash off.'NBC said
the package contained a
rambling and often-incoherent,
1,800-word video manifesto,
plus 43 photos, 11 of them
showing him aiming handguns at
the camera.He repeatedly
suggests he was picked on or
otherwise hurt.'You have
vandalized my heart, raped my
soul and torched my
conscience,' he says,
apparently reading from his
manifesto. 'You thought it was
one pathetic boy's life you
were extinguishing. Thanks to
you, I die like Jesus Christ,
to inspire generations of the
weak and the defenseless
people.'The package arrived at
NBC's headquarters in New York
two days after Cho killed 32
people and committed suicide
in the deadliest one-man
shooting rampage in modern
U.S. history. It bore a Postal
Service time stamp showing
that it had been mailed at a
Virginia post office at 9:01
a.m. Monday, about an hour and
45 minutes after Cho first
opened fire.That would help
explain one of the biggest
mysteries about the massacre:
where the gunman was and what
he did during that two-hour
window between the first burst
of gunfire, at a high-rise
dorm, and the second
fusillade, at a classroom
building.'Your Mercedes wasn't
enough, you brats,' says Cho,
a South Korean immigrant whose
parents work at a dry cleaners
in surburban Washington. 'Your
golden necklaces weren't
enough, you snobs. Your trust
funds wasn't enough. Your
vodka and cognac wasn't
enough. All your debaucheries
weren't enough. Those weren't
enough to fulfill your
hedonistic needs. You had
everything.'Some of the
pictures show him smiling;
others show him frowning and
snarling. Some depict him
brandishing two weapons at a
time, one in each hand. He
wears a khaki-colored
military-style vest,
fingerless gloves, a black
T-shirt, a backpack and a
backwards, black baseball cap.
Another photo shows him
swinging a hammer two-fisted.
Another shows an angry-looking
Cho holding a gun to his
temple.He refers to 'martyrs
like Eric and Dylan' â?? a
reference to the teenage
killers in the Columbine High
massacre.The package was sent
by overnight delivery but did
not arrive at NBC until
Wednesday morning. It had
apparently been delayed
because it had the wrong ZIP
code, NBC said.An alert postal
employee brought the package
to NBC's attention after
noticing the Blacksburg return
address and a name similar to
the words reportedly found
scrawled in red ink on Cho's
arm after the bloodbath,
'Ismail Ax,' NBC said.NBC News
President Steve Capus said
that the network received the
package around noon and
notified the FBI. He said the
FBI asked NBC to hold off
reporting on it so that the
bureau could look at it first,
and NBC complied, finally
breaking the story just before
a police announcement of the
package at 4:30 p.m.Capus said
it was clear Cho videotaped
himself, because he could be
seen leaning in to shut off
the camera.State Police
Spokeswoman Corinne Geller
cautioned that, while the
package was mailed between the
two shootings, police have not
inspected the footage and have
yet to establish exactly when
the images were made.
