Last week, I blogged about two young gents, who were planning a Columbine-style mass murder at their former high school. Today, I pick up the paper, and read this story about the moron in the picture above (who actually looks like a relative, but he's not! Thank God!), who plotted to pull off a Virginia Tech-style killing spree and posted his plans online. What is wrong with this world?
It turns out, a University of Maryland student has been arrested and charged with posting an Internet threat claiming that he planned to go on a shooting rampage on campus hoping to kill as many people as possible. Really? I feel that those who post stuff like this online, really aren't going to follow through with their threats because it sounds like cries for help from kids just seeking attention. I mean, who in their right minds would actually post the fact that they're going to kill as many people as possible, unless they take the short bus to school?
Anyway, in a statement made by campus police, 19-year-old Alexander Song of Fulton, Maryland, was identifed as the person who posted on a website his plans for a rampage that would "kill enough people to make it to national news." The message also warned people to "stay away from the mall." So, now this kid has become Al-Queda? What an idiot!
Song was taken to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation after his arrest on Sunday. He was not armed at the time of his arrest and he faces a misdemeanor charge of disturbing school activities. That's all? Man, if this kid wasn't pissed off the University before he made those threats, he will be when he gets out of jail! How are they not keeping this kid behind bars for everyone's safety?
According to the University website, Song is a member of a campus research program for select honor students who explore how science and technology relates with society. The Gemstone Program lists song as scheduled to graduate in 2014. The University has moved to immediately suspend Song and ban him from Campus pending review. I ban him indefinitely! Why would you need to review that? The boy is a psycho, who apparently has some serious mental issues. Would you let this kid off that easily?
