More on Virginia Tech Shooting

The NBC News report on the "multimedia manifesto" that Cho Seung-Hui mailed to NBC News, apparently during the two hours between killing sprees on the VT campus.

A Killer's Face

With all this madness going on about the Virginia Tech shootings, I'm wondering (and I'm sure lots of people are) what, if any, backlash will there be toward Koreans, Asians, or resident aliens in general? This photo is running everywhere, and the South Korean government is already wondering too. Here's how the AP piece tries to "fairly" address the question of nationality:

A South Korean student was also among those injured in the rampage, and Roh instructed diplomats to care for the student and confirm whether any other South Koreans were hurt.

Despite being technically a state of war for decades against North Korea , South Korea is a country where citizens are banned from privately owning guns and where no school shootings are known to have occurred.

However, the country has not been immune from shooting rampages.

In 2005, a military conscript believed to be angered by taunts from senior officers killed eight fellow soldiers, throwing a grenade into a barracks where his comrades were sleeping and firing a hail of bullets.
