The question: Should NBC broadcast a mass murderer's manifeston/propaganda?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Hell no.

[cubbieblue12]

NO!...that's what the stupid SOB wanted...he deserves to rot in hell and piece of s*** shouldn't get the attention b/c he wanted it.

[frostwyrm]

Show it. It's not like this guy was the vanguard of a dangerous movement. He was just some isolated weirdo expressing his own self-absorbed weird ideas.

Post it on the web or something. This is a significant moment in US history.

I disagree. Surely it is a tragedy and no one involved will ever forget but I suspect that most everyone else will. Just like we hardly ever think about the sniper in the DC area or that guy that shot up that McDonalds.

[CubinNY]

It should not be posted or viewed by anyone other than police and psychologists.

 

All this does is serve to fuel the delutions of other mentally ill people who also have a potential to commit harm.

 

This kid wanted attention as do most of the people who commit these types of cirmes. It's all about them, believe it or not but in many cases suicide is the ultimate attention seeking behavior.

 

Give him and others like him attention will only make more crimes like this more likely to happen in the future.

Showing it only encourages those that have some deranged message they want to get out there to do things this way.

[Derwood]

they absolutely should not, which means they absolutely will

[tkenm356]

Can you add "I don't care" to your list?

 

Cause I really don't care, I wouldn't watch it regardless if I knew it was on there or not.

I still hear about Columbine quite a bit.

The video only further proves how much of a dumbass Cho was. No one ever made fun of him -- people didn't even know who he was. And his plays were absolutely terrible. The fact that a guy with grammar that awful got into a major university as an English major astounds me.

 

But no, they should not show it. At least not now, out of respect for the families of the victims.

=D> Bravo. My feelings exactly.
