SHORTER PAT BUCHANAN

Cho Seung-Hui was a psychopath because he was a dirty filthy immigrant.

Am I misinterpreting this? It sure seems to me as if Buchanan is saying that Cho snapped and started shooting people specifically because he was in a country where he wasn't born:

...Almost no attention has been paid to the fact that Cho Seung-Hui was not an American at all, but an immigrant, an alien. Had this deranged young man who secretly hated us never come here, 32 people would be heading home from Blacksburg for summer vacation.

What was Cho doing here? How did he get in?

Cho was among the 864,000 Koreans here as a result of the Immigration Act of 1965, which threw the nation's doors open to the greatest invasion in history, an invasion opposed by a majority of our people. Thirty-six million, almost all from countries whose peoples have never fully assimilated in any Western country, now live in our midst.

Cho was one of them.

In stories about him, we learn he had no friends, rarely spoke and was a loner, isolated from classmates and roommates. Cho was the alien in Hokie Nation. And to vent his rage at those with whom he could not communicate, he decided to kill in cold blood dozens of us.

What happened in Blacksburg cannot be divorced from what's been happening to America since the immigration act brought tens of millions of strangers to these shores, even as the old bonds of national community began to disintegrate and dissolve in the social revolutions of the 1960s....

Of course, the "dozens of us" who were killed by Cho included at least eight victims from other countries.

Buchanan goes on to regale us with a list of psychokillers and would be psychokillers, carefully cherry-picked to exclude those born in the U.S.A., from the nativist site VDARE.com, where this article also appears.

Why is Pat Buchanan still anb acceptable presence in polite society?
