I was amazed to hear that the VT shooter, Cho Seung-Hui was in the same high school class as the individual who shot and killed two police officers in Fairfax County VA last year, Michael Kennedy. What if Dylan Kleibold and Eric Harris never met?
They attended Westfields High School in Centreville VA. Their neighborhood is definitely divided between the haves and have nots. It's made up of working class people trying to maintain middle class status, and the upper, upper class.
Not really hard to see their resentment of "rich kids."

Westfields High School band as it was practicing in the summer.
In Northern Virginia, there are poor, middle class, rich, and uber-rich no matter where you go (with the exception of a few places where EVERYONE is rich). Resentment of the "rich kids" or not, it's something everyone has to deal with, and deal with it they do, without being murderers.

some of the local BBS' and there is more of a resentment between the haves and have nots in FFX Cty then I thought.
But my main point is, what are the chances of them being from the same HS class? That floored me. Also it would seem that the seeds of his behavior were sown long before he reached VT's campus.
