Someone explain to me the point of showing the VA Tech killers video? Looks to me it was revealed for entertainment factor. Makes me sick to my stomach...

There was a psychiatrist on Good Morning America that shot down the networks for showing it. I don't blame him. Kids don't need to see that.

ooh totally i think that they are glorifying it and posting all the "bad" or "scary" pics to get people to check it out. I feel bad for this kid, he obviously had ALOT of issues, he didnt even ...
