I made drudge. Amazing.

~~hoax?~~ Thank you drudgereport for clarifying the link.

My prayers to the families and those affected by today's events.

Edit: I apologize for any confusion caused by today's events. The purpose of this post was not to gloat, but rather show the sheer ridiculousness of how bad communication can affect one's credibility. (Read: Duke case) For those claiming that this was a elaborate hoax, my journal has been around since 2001 with over 3500 posts over these past 6 years. Once again, I offer my condolences to all those at Virginia Tech. Go Hokies.

Edit:
Cary W: in a panic people crave information, regardless if it's misinformation

~~If anyone can provide legal assistance, I would appreciate it. I have heard that disparaging remarks have been made on Geraldo. Also, if anyone has a copy of the feed...~~ Geraldo is my hero.

Edit: I heard they showed my pretty face and Miss UMP.

Edit (200704170139): I would like to acknowledge Mr. Preston at HotAir. He had the journalistic professionalism to try to contact me before posting my journal to the rest of the world. His message was lost in VT webmail as all bandwidth to VT services were "hoarded". I appreciate their clarification in this matter.

Edit (200704170212): I would also like to thank ABC news for portraying me in an accurate manner: http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/2007/04/i_want_to_clear.html

Edit (200704170217): With apologies to the CS lab. I suppose the server isn't digg/drudge rated.

Edit (200704170718): Last night was quite a night indeed. I could hardly sleep. And now, I think my siblings are scared to go to school because this whole situation is very confusing to them. Never before has our family dealt with death threats and had to turn off the phone because of the constant barrage of phone calls. Has this affected our way of living? So far, I'd say yeah. Also, I would like to acknowledge drudgereport for removing the "hoax" part of their link. I am starting to have more faith that the media isn't blowing people out of proportion.

Edit (200704170802): I would like to acknowledge Wired (I subscribe to the magazine!) for their journalistic integrity of not rushing to conclusions and posting my name: http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2007/04/internet_names_.html Also, there seems to be some confusion with the issue of death threats. There have been a number of individuals sending messages on facebook. I suppose they didn't even bother making the messages anonymous... (retards) All threatening messages in nature are being handled by the police.

	DRUDGE IS RUINING THIS STORY! You weren't a "hoax", this was a case of people looking for someone, anyone, to blame. They picked you, phone-bombed you, and threatened to kill you. How did it feel being a scapegoat? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I find it a touch amusing that people would leave death-threats for a guy who killed himself. I mean... wtf is the point in that? Anywho, I knew you weren't the shooter. You come off as totally responsible firearms owner, not some whack-job. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	i'm a self-identified progressive (or left-winger or liberal or whatever) and this is disgusting to see, straight up, REGARDLESS of an ideological identification. and apparently they were just talking about this on fox news. weird coincidence!! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	omgwtfbbq... sheperd smith and geraldo have it out for you dude... they are talking about an "asian man in an angry picture holding several guns." he's talking about your arsenal. crikey. who knows what CNN is saying.

	I don't forsee the South Park guys making a reference to the worst mass murder in American history. They haven't even come near to touching the Columbine massacre. Poor form, my friend. Poor form indeed. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	sweeet dood, i wasn't convinced but looks like enough were, and rock on south park!!! if any news organizations want to interview me my email address is on my profile page. in case you're that desperate, and i know you are. oh media... how easily you are fooled! (Reply to this)

	You are a moron optimusprime77 2007-04-17 03:34 am UTC (link)
	You should have left your 7pm post up instead of deleting it. You almost fooled me, but the news stated the shooter was 24 while you are 23 (as it states on xanga). Thanks for the entertainment and saving me from watching 55 minutes of '24' when the last 5 minutes of Jack as a rogue agent was all I needed to know. Hope all is well. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Having seen the pictures earlier, (thank ar15.com) I KNEW exactly what he was talking about and called DH over to take a look.....found your most recent updates. I had previously read your update on the VHTF. And for those that are implying it was planned....him posting the pics yesterday, wtf???? It doesnt even make sense...let alone rational sense.

	go on and look at the posts that seem to "match up" and see if there are any comments from before yesterday. It's pretty damn obvious that OP backdated a bunch of suspect entries into an already existing journal as a (sick) joke which then got out of control. (Reply to this) (Parent)
