Virginia Tech: One unanswered question
The details about Cho Seung-Hui are still coming out. You can argue all you want about gun laws and privacy laws and how to handle troubled students. Here's a question that sticks in my head: Where were this guy's parents? Were they ever notified that their son was a stalker who needed mental help? How did they react when a campus police officer said their son was "mentally ill and in need of hospitalization, and presents an imminent danger to self or others"? What--if anything--did they do to help him? I can only imagine the grief and horror they must feel right now. I don't care who or what Ismail Ax is. I just suspect that there's a missing piece to this puzzle that nobody has bothered to pick up yet.
