When is tiny texie instagram - 15 Contributory Clues

Cho Seung-Hui was the 23 year-old Virginia Tech tiny texie instagram who killed 32 students and took his own life afterward on the morning of April 16, 2007.


What clues can we see throughout Cho Seung-Hui's time at Virginia Tech (VT) that would signal and lead up to the making of a murderer?


1. He was an isolated recluse and silent loner.


Cho, a South Korean native, was in the U.S. as a resident alien with a residence established in Centerville, Va. Cho was living on campus in Harper Residence Hall. Yet his roommates say he was very quiet and kept to himself. The extent of his social revolved around instant messenger and time spent on face book.


2. Strange behavior alienating him socially.


Cho was said to often take pictures of people without permission. Perhaps Cho was collecting pictures to send to friends back in South Korea to project the social life he never had. Though many fellow students at Virginia Tech were disturbed by Cho's picture takings, they were seemingly tolerant to a degree of his eccentric and weird behavior. Nevertheless Cho's odd behavior served to ostracize and distance him socially from his peers. Many who crossed paths with Cho at VT thought of him as the strangest, spookiest person they'd ever encountered.


3. He was jealous and envious.


Cho left an angry note in his dorm room, which a law enforcement source described as a typed, eight-page rant against "rich kids" and women. "You caused me to do this," the official quoted the note as saying.


Cho was jealous and envious of the rich kids money and guys who had the girls he dreamed of having. The Bible says, "Jealousy is the rage of a man" (Proverbs 6:34). That is to say jealousy precedes anger and rage. As for envy, it is "rottenness of the bones" (14:30).


4. Socially and sexually frustrated.


Leaving home to live at the University can be a real test for one's manhood as Cho discovered. He was thrust into a new living environment, where he had to adapt and make friends. Not being the social type, the insecure Cho withdrew and isolated himself.


With the click of the internet, Cho was readily able to access all the pictures of the girls he inwardly fantasized about. This further intensified his own personal and sexual frustration as a man. What futile attempts he did make to befriend the opposite sex, Cho was seemingly rejected as there apparently was not a mutual interest.


Cho's last hours apparently began with the killings of freshman veterinary student Emily Hilscher, 19, and senior Ryan "Stack" Clark, a resident advisor, at about 7:15 a.m. in the West Ambler Johnston residence hall.


Hilscher's connection to Cho is not clear. The police who responded to 911 calls described the incident as a "domestic dispute," implying that she and the gunman had some sort of relationship.


Another twist to this puzzling young man is his darkly comic one-act play "Richard McBeef," which mentions a father's pedophilia.


5. Uncommunicative, Cho was an emotional time bomb eroding from within.


David Schott, who graduated from Westfield High School in Chantilly, Va., with Cho in 2003, told the Boston Herald in an e-mail that Cho "never spoke a word." Bottling up all of his pain and feelings within, Cho never confided in anyone as to what he was struggling with.


Unlike women who validate and easily articulate their feelings to one another, Cho (like many men) probably lived in denial for some time and just kept pushing his pain down.


6. Cho was likely the source of classmate jokes.


Kids can be cruel. It begins in elementary school and goes on through college. Kids don't hold back any punches. The joke about unresponsive Cho was he was "The question mark kid."


Cho sat in the back of the classroom, wearing a hat and seldom participating. In a small department, Cho distinguished himself for being anonymous.


A photo from the 2002 yearbook, when Cho was a junior, shows an unsmiling, bespectacled boy wearing a plaid flannel shirt over a light-colored T-shirt. He did not have a yearbook photo his senior year.


7. Cho played violent video games which desensitized him to violence.


Dr. Phil went so far according to Fox News as to have entirely blamed the video games. I wouldn't go that far, but I will say that making sport of violence does tremendously desensitize people to acting in such a way. This was definitely another small component that compounded and contributed to the making of a murderer.


8. Full of shame and self-hatred.


It was said that Cho never made eye contact with anyone in high-school, this being a sure sign of low self-esteem and shame. Enduring such self-defeating tendencies for years enabled Cho to develop a strong sense of self-hatred.


Students said Cho was known for little more than his silent demeanor. They said he refused to introduce himself to his creative writing class last year. As classmates went around the room saying their names, he remained silent. On the sign-in sheet where everyone else had written their names, Cho had written a question mark. "Is your name, 'Question mark?' " classmate Julie Poole recalled the professor asking. The young man offered little response.


Cho's two roommates told CNN in an exclusive interview that he had mentioned committing suicide to them after a disheartening incident when he had pursued a "friend" (no doubt a young lady) and the results were not favorable to his liking.
