But frankly, I'm skeptical about this; the identity of the shooter is not yet public knowledge, the so-called source is completely unidentified, speculation is running rampant anyway, and it doesn't really make sense that a Chinese national, upon being given the chance to attend an American institute of higher learning, would throw it all away in a spree killing with a pair of illegally acquired handguns. Insofar as any Chinese national wants to hurt America, or Americans, they're more likely to seek to do it by economic growth.
Thanks for the info, by the way.

It makes sense if said Chinese national found himself in an emotionally unstable situation (for whatever reason) and decided that suicide was a viable option. It's just that at that point his status as a Chinese national has nothing whatsoever to do with the shootings; it could just as easily been a native-born citizen.

But yeah, considering the sketchy details still emerging and the unverified nature of the information I'd not be surprised to find out it's just complete BS anyway.
