Doesn't sound like the soon-to-be-dying words of a Muslim or an atheist... |
...or an 'Asian gang member'. |
There was some 'on the cross' rhetoric in his video too.
that being said, he was a disturbed individual. I wont use him to club Christians with, it's not fair nor right. |
Indeed not. Trying to blame some supposed ideology or affiliation for the actions of an individual like that as an excuse to demean or villify said ideology or affiliation is pretty irresponsible and stupid. |

Amen. My point is not to make some bogus claim that Cho Seung-Hui flipped out and killed those people because he's a Christian. My point is just that when Dave Scot claims that Cho Seung-Hui killed all those people because he's a Muslim, or an Asian gang member, or an atheist, or a member of a 'non-mainstream church', that Dave is basically full of shit. Simple as that.
But I don't expect Dave to get the point. It'd be more in character for him to make some snarl like "well, he might as well have been a Muslim, and that's good enough for me."
I find it grotesquely fascinating how so many wingnuts seem so desperate to recast Cho Seung-Hui in some fantasy image. The line of reasoning seems to be "he's famous for doing something horrible, therefore he must embody everything that I fear and hate the most". This is how people like DT can assume CSH of course must be some kind of Islamoatheist.
