Mistaken identity

[J0hnny]

Not sure if anyone has heard, but another asian VT student who was known as a gun nut, who lives in the same dorm where the shooting occurred, was mistakenly suspected as the shooter.

Here is a link to his blog on livejournal: http://wanusmaximus.livejournal.com/

Edit (200704170802): I would like to acknowledge Wired (I suscribe to the magazine!) for their journalistic integrity of not rushing to conclusions and posting my name: http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2007/04/internet_names_.html Also, there seems to be some confusion with the issue of death threats. There have been a number of individuals sending messages on facebook. I suppose they didn't even bother making the messages anonymous... (retards) All threatening messages in nature are being handled by the police.

Why would someone send death threats to the guy thinking he was the shooter? The shooter is dead.

And ~50 of them are about this FFS.


And, mugs this hoax came out right after it happened, so no one knew the shooter was dead yet, then of course it wad debunked.

Death threats against an asian and from what I see not because he is an asian but because idiots mistakenly believe he is somehow involved in the incident. Keep trying to fan those racial flames though.

And yet the guy still received open threats on his facebook, whether or not it was debunked or not. It happened!

That asian man has an army of guns.

Whoever threatens him must have some BIG something.

Those flames have already been fanned! The shooter is labeled as a "South Korean National" but he came at the age of 9 to the US. He is basically an American short of citizenship. South Korea issued statements of deep regret hoping that this would not draw hatreds towards their country. They have NOTHING to do with this and yet the media is already pointing out his supposed "nationality."

I'm only following suit.

Stop trying to push the race card, people threatened him because they thought he was the killer dumbass, not because he was asian. :disgust:

Banned for exercising my first amendment rights? (well, in all technicalities, within the limit of the mod's approvals).
