Kenneth Eng Inspired Seung-Hui Cho’s Virginia Tech Killing Spree
AN Asian Supremacist who penned a series of racist columns in an Asian newspaper is now claiming that he inspired Seung-Hui Cho’s Virginia Tech killing spree.
Kenneth Eng, a 23-year-old aspiring science fiction writer, says he would have gone on a rampage of his own while he was a student at New York University if he had been able to afford a gun.
“A part of me wishes I was Cho,” Eng told the Village Voice. “He is my hero.”
Eng showed the newspaper documents proving that he displayed many of the same characteristics that have been used to explain Cho’s rampage, such as stalking female classmates, being institutionalized and worrying university professors with hate-filled coursework.
“Frankly, I was planning on going to NYU and going on a rampage,” Eng told the Voice. “The only thing that stopped me was that I couldn’t afford a gun.”
Instead, Eng limited himself to claiming responsibility for inspiring Cho’s killing spree.
“It’s speculative but I think that there is a good chance that Cho may have read my work,” said Eng. “I might have had something to do with [the VT shootings] because it’s kind of conspicuous that [Cho] would shoot all these people so shortly after AsianWeek published all my articles.”
Eng was fired from his job as a columnist for AsianWeek after he wrote a piece titled “Why I Hate Black People.” AsianWeek removed the offensive article from its website, but SFgate.com listed some of Eng’s reasons as:
- “Blacks hate us. Every Asian who has ever come across them knows that they take almost every opportunity to hurl racist remarks at us.”
- “Contrary to media depictions, I would argue that blacks are weak-willed. They are the only race that has been enslaved for 300 years.”
- “Blacks are easy to coerce. This is proven by the fact that so many of them, including the Rev. Al Sharpton, tend to be Christians.”
Previous Eng columns for AsianWeek included the insightful “Proof That Whites Inherently Hate Us” and “Why I Hate Asians.”
The Voice reports that hours after reading about the massacre Cho published a video on YouTube (that was later removed) saying that it was “the funniest thing I ever read in my life.”
If law enforcement officials needed any more reasons to take Eng off the streets, we are sure Eng would be happy to provide them. Here he is in March babbling about dragons slaying humans on Fox News.

Is this guy trying to prove he inspired a killing spree?? Or that he is just as mentally unstable as someone who would go on a killing spree?

As far as I am concerned, Cho is a hero in my book. As being of similar nature, bullied extremely as a kid and being sexually frustrated for practically all my life, I am 34, had sex only a couple of times without paying for it. I know what he went through. The simple fact is, if just 1 women noticed cho and mabey talked to him, this probably would not have happened. The problem in todays society is that women have so much sexual choice and they all go after the 5% of men who they consider desireable (the “alpha” types), that so many men get left out in the cold, a sexually deprived desert for which there is absouletly no escape. Some men can deal with it, for others, the biological drive which has driven the human race for countless millenia to reproduce, punishes us dearly for not getting the thing which all of us deserve and need just as much as food, water and shelter; sexual companionship. This drives many men to suicide, and sometimes homicide since they see women, bullies, jocks, etc as the ones who are depriving them of this need. Women just dont understand this insatiable need men have. But for me, it would probably be similar to being chained to a post like a dog, while everyone else around you is eating fillet mignon while you are starving competing with rats for the scraps. The people know you are starving but they dont care. If you were in this position, I guarentee you would feel anger and hatred towards your opressors as well, probably to the point where you would want to kill them. This is how Cho felt!
From the extensive reading I did on Cho, it seems that right before he snapped, he was denied sex by an escort. If I were him, I would have snapped too! For a guy who’s existance was never even acknowledged by women all his life, he was probably nervous and embarassed as hell having to hire a prostitute since it was his only option, as it is for countless other men. This must have been the breaking point. Just think, if that escort had sex with him, 33 people would still be alive today.
The greater problem is that in our feminized, liberal, PC society, no one wants to mention the sexual starvation of men since that would tarnish the image of women as the pure, and innocent little angels that the media and hollywood makes them out to be and people would have to rethink the stereotype of all men being dogs, players, etc. I assure you that like 1% of men are capable of becomming players in the first place and the reason the stereotype exists is that 90% of all women are attracted to that 1% and the rest of us guys are just ignored and treated like trash by women.
I have wanted to do what cho did many times in my life and I can assure you that women have treated me like garbage all my life since I was never considered “cool” and was always a little socially awkward. It is just a shame that the media is throwing all that crap out about mental illness since it is too pussified to talk about the greater problem plauging men in this society.
I hate to say this, because I have a conscience and it is a shame the people have to die before changes can be made in society. It is just too bad that columbine did not happen 20 years earlier, as it may have saved me from a whole childhood worth of bullying and as a result my self esteem would have been more intact. It is just too bad that Cho did not select his victims better, mabey shooting up a sorority instead of just random people, then the media would have had to acknowledge sexual frustration as a major cause of this catastrophe.
