VA Tech situation

Ok, I'm reading online, surfing some of my favorite websites, and noticed that all I was hearing about was the VA Tech shooter. I feel bad for situation at the school, who doesn't, right? But, I am so.... tired of hearing about things like the student who got kicked out of class for stating an opinion about the situation, or how poor Cho was clearly possessed by the Devil, who made him do it. It wasn't his fault, just the fault of the evil he was exposed to in the world......

Doesn't anyone take responsibility for actions anymore? Even his video detailing what he was going to do shows him saying how he "didn't have to do it" - if he knew he didn't have to do it, why go through with it? Why shoot people in a dorm, then give yourself a two hour break to make a video holding guns and making threats, take meanacing pictures of yourself, neatly package the tape and pictures, take the time to go to the post office and mail it off (to the wrong address, no less), then go shoot a bunch of people in a building? And, after all that, shoot yourself? People care about the victims, not the dead shooter. I don't think what he did was OK, I just don't think it made any sense.
