Shooter Cho-Seung Hui, might be suffering from the following:

Orbitofrontal cortex

Destruction of the OFC through acquired brain injury typically leads to a pattern of disinhibited behaviour. Examples include swearing excessively, hypersexuality, poor social interaction, compulsive gambling, excessive alcohol / smoking / drug use and poor empathising ability. Disinhibited behaviour by patients with some forms of frontotemporal dementia is thought to be caused by degeneration of the OFC^[8]. Patients with damage to the OFC tend to make rash decisions and typically manage their finances poorly.

I just hope things will blow over soon and that although it would be a long time, I wish all those who lost their loved ones, that they will be able to recover from this. Let there be no more bloodshed, let there be love, and no more hatred.

Let us. All. Just love each other. No hate, no animosity, no nothing, but only love.
