I think his parents are probably beside themselves. I think for the most part the Korean community is made up of quiet, gentle people who definitely would never want their child to do such an act. This is in no way a racist thing this person did. He seemed to be a very, very troubled individual with his writings, assertions and the like. I also feel sorry not only for the loss of these lives but I feel for his family as well.
