Virginia Tech Massacre Tribute - "Healing Rain"

[UThornzUT]

Jesus Christ is the wisest, most loving, person to walk this earth....

[u2hubbard]

Good thing Mike Vick left there before it happened.

[cynthia1000w]

this day i would never forget! Planning early that morning what to do on my birthday,when this ungodly scene came a cross the TV. Some much pain! April 16 2007

[LifeFaithHope]

I really wanted to cry watching this! You did a great Job on this video, God Bless You

[urethane22]

Why is there so much media on this shit? It wasnt that big of a deal...so what if some poeple died?

[mogies1621]

@urethane22 you are a true idiot...you have no idea how this affected people around virginia tech. you have no heart, you would feel differently if someone you knew had died in this tragedy

[urethane22]

@mogies1621 Wouldnt give a fuck, this is stupid, it happens every day, not a big deal.

[Alek247]

People who say this was an act of "god" your just like the typical brain washed uneducated stupid fuck American, every time there's a huge catastrophe or tragedy you say it's an act of god, did it ever occur to you that it's just human nature that's been happening since we evolved to what we are now?. Go ahead and believe your religious bullshit you'll see soon enough when you die.

[TashaRichardsonFan]

May Cho forever burn and rot in hell.

[AlienBusDriver]

aint no rain gonna heal a bullet wound, just saying

[tou291462]

I Said Cho Seung-Hui Should Stay Back At South Korea And Why His Parents Sent Him In United States Of America Why It Because He Never Talk And Speak To Classmates In University Of Virginia Because He's Always Use The Question Mark To Many Time In Classes,Lunch And Home Rooms Too And Also He Never Talks Anybody Like Lunch,Classes,Hallway,HomeRoom­s And Walking Outside.

[meany1023]

Cops showed up and helped me out

[meany1023]

How I know this is cuz I was injured at VT I was in Norris hall and crawled as far asi could till the

[meany1023]

Cho was never bullied people he was clinically insane according to doctors so don't spread this fucking bs and he didn't kill the people he didn't like cuz he killed everyone he could

[HateTheHEROES]

Trust in God and this Shit Wouldn't Happen

[zerobinary2]

@fasfsdfasd You are right they might not know cho, but that does not mean cho does not know them! I mean the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence! You don't need to justify killing someone since we are living in a mad world whether you agree or not. May be he just simply enjoy killing people! He can justify it since it is fun

[zerobinary2]

@fasfsdfasd I agree you are free to do anything in America as long as it doesn't interfere with the well being of others, but his classmates has interfere cho's life. They cross the line in the sand

[pandadust1]

cry me a river they all deserved it! 

[MilleniumCouncil18]

Pastor of Westboro Baptist Church,Fred W.Phelps Sr,was right.Unless you seek Jesus and repent,you will perish.Luke 13:3.

[MilleniumCouncil18]

VT hated God,Jesus was banned there,perverts prospered.God sent His Curse against these Godless brats.God sent the mad man to punish the rebelling youth for doing what God hates them for.Galatians 1:6-7 and Psalm 6:11.Many of those who got killed including this mad mad are now in Hell.

[zerobinary2]

Rest in Peace Cho! People should start to ponder what you have done to others to deserve it. Cho is a revolutionary with a vision. Forever remember cho! Furthermore, I am sick and tried of people telling me what do I do to deserve it? U know the answer!

[TheIncest]

you shouldn't be eating cake you should be jumping out of it

[TheIncest]

did they died

[ihyottha]

virginia tech must be evil because Seung-Hui Cho them all

[2coldstones]

CER-PLUNK this is GODS way of gettin rid of ROTTEN EGGS!=D

[sade2107]

My God, I still can't believe this..I am SO PROUD to be a HOKIE...May God bless that campus ...crazy to know I walked that path everyday... His Grace is ENOUGH!... RIP to all the lives gone into eternity that day...Come Lord Jesus!

[CFAN123]

@sade2107 where does the term "Hokie" come from? I assume it just refers to the students of VT?

[sade2107]

@CFAN123 no sir, it is a Battle Cry...used in the War days...that is what they told us anyways...I am sorry if I am wrong, but WHATEVER it is lol I am still proud to be one...

[CFAN123]

@sade2107 Fair enough, I guess we should all be proud of who we are and what we stand for. As long as its something good of course.

[sundevilfan4]

i remember watching that vt vs ecu football game on tv for some reason when vtech came out of that locker room and heard that crowd cheering i had a tear come out my eye

[TheVTfan1]

that day was awful for me my....my cousin goes there!!

i thought she was killed cause we couldent get in contact with her.

lucky for us she was fine.

but for the other familys who had reltives THERE it was a bad day for everyone!

how would you feel, to know that a loved one, young at school was gone?

[TheVTfan1]

i dont care if you like another team...but that day we were ALL VIRGINIA TECH HOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! p.s. the song is called healling rain

[kimveer2]

ABBIATE TIMORE DELL'IRA DEI BUONI

[MakeBelieve07]

I think its a great tribute, I'm just gutted that worthless excuses for human beings crack jokes and poke fun at a tragedy like this. Think hard before you push those keys, look inside yourself, and look hard at all those beautiful faces and lives rallied into the past tense due to one persons selfishness.Imagine if it was someone you knew or loved and think if you would want people making fun of it? Never, ever feed off someones sorrow from the comfort of a armchair you sick degenerates.

[Iamallaloneandlonely]

i was so happy that day . . . not knowing what was going on till a friend said she wanted to mourne with me for compfert . . . when she told me what happened . . . i couldn't be happy again . . . my birthday was now about mourneing the death of those lucky people . . . lucky enough to go home to our father . . . but we all will go home some day . . . just when is what we wait for . . .

don't be sad to much . . . they are in a better place now . . . with our father . . . our creator . . . GOD...

[IAmBarrabas]

I was at home doing homework in my living room. I saw a urgent breaking news broadcast and they were telling me about this. I couldn't work for the rest of the day. I was all depressed.

MY PRAYERS ARE WITH THE FAMILIES.

[LittleHawk33]

i remember this day... i was at school but nobody was really saying anything about it. i heard the teachers talking about it quietly behind our backs, and after school when my dad picked me up he told me. the next day every one of our teachers talked to us about it.

[gigas94]

THANK GOD theyre not putting security camera videos up i mean thatd b rlly sad and too terrrible too watch

[CFAN123]

This video is a great tribute. From Australia i say God bless all the victims and america. Remember You are known and prized by Majesty, You matter to God. God bless you all.

[CFAN123]

stuff you, you stupid sick freak

[DaleJr88Amped]

amen.

[Iamallaloneandlonely]

u hokies r great and im so terribly sad about wat happend ill never forget 4-16-07. all u hokies will heal but never forget.

[hokiethug33]

Take the memory of these 32 people, and use it for motivation to do something positive with your lives. Don't waste a second of it.

[weewee1574]

Ban guns

[MrCool63]

why? so you can stop shootings? guess what if you really want a gun, you can still get a gun. Just go to any bad nieghborhood and purchase one.... Instead, ammend the law to include a more extense back ground check.

[JessieKalish92]

My fire department went down to VT with lights and sirens all the way from NJ just to help. Blacksburg FD is one of our sister departments. I was home sick from school and when I heard that on the pager I grabbed my gear and ran to the firehouse. When we got there, I saw a scene I will never forget.

RIP to all victims

~Jessie Kalish

[bigtim31]

God bless you Jessie! This year will make my father a Fire Chief for 10 years now, and he has been in the service for about 25 years. Much respect goes to you and your family.

God bless, from Chicago!

[JessieKalish92]

:) Congrats for your dad! PS: I'm like the only girl younger than 20 in my FD LOL (im 15, they let us respond to calls but we cant do a whole lot, but on that day they used everyone they could) Thanks for the blessing!

~Jessie Kalish

[CFAN123]

Yeah so true, Life is precious. We can't put enough value on a persons life.

[PinkApplePokemons]

who took all these pics? they all look so professional...

anyway, SOOOOOOoooooo Sad....:'(

R.I.P Everyone who died in that shooting

And, everyone who knew those people, it's ok t cry :)

[crackman164]

I was best friends with Choe and I tried to stop him but he wouldn't listen to be. He was still human like any of us. I expect everyone to mourne for him just like we do for the ones killed.

[bigtim31]

I agree...I don't hate him. I hate what he did, and I hate the spirit of deception that was in him which what lead him to his death along with all the others. However, I do believe in justice, and when he faces His Creator...justice will be fulfilled.

[zerobinary2]

@I don't hate him nor his action. He did what is necessary for him to do. It is his life so it is our right to judge him! As long as he accepts the consequence of it, rock on!

[zerobinary2]

@crackman164 No, you are cowardly hiding under the table. LOL Let there be a wound in everyone heart!

[hokiejdk]

Great video

[VTjnp]

Great tribute

[Brookside6718]

Great Way to Honor the Fallen on April 16

[betterthanu411]

what has the world become??? How can you say tht?

[angelnero]

i think you need some help.

[ginasacutiee]

were chos parents in it? or was that another parents 1:47

[ginasacutiee]

...im not going to judge you,

but just think about what your saying,

cmon you cant be crazy.

[bigtim31]

Tell me...if God doesn't exist...if there is no Intelligent Creator...then what is it that got us here? And how do you know?

[cubfanatic13]

very good point

[combatAmphibian]

in b4 evolution

[Lekarna]

@bigtim31 You really should look at Darwin`s theory of evolution. What do they teach you in school, that God made the World? I thought this is what the Church teaches...

[grantusdunlopus]

Lol you think God doesnt exist. Prove it. you cant. Just remember...even when you dont believe in him...God still holds out his hand to you. Jesus Loves you. That may sound "gay" but its the truth. I hope u find happiness Rookofivory. God Bless

[grantusdunlopus]

how can you people say good job choo? It is clear that there exists an inherent evil in you to say something like that. My prayer is that you would experience love in its fullest through Jesus Christ and realise that evil is not the way..Satan is blatently at work across the earth..but he will fail at the end of days because Christ has already won the victory and God reigns over all things. Satan is fighting an already lost battle! all because of Jesus! RIP victims. from N.ireland

[cowsrock99]

oh my i am so sad and my school made a poster and put all our prayers on it and sent it in.....to vt.....i hope it got there!

[Brittney8757]

Thanx for doing this viedo of My friends and teachers who didn't make it on 4.16.07. Really sweet of You :)

God Bless You :)

- Brittney - Lynn

[bigtim31]

Hi there Brittney, I just want to let you know that it doesn't matter how many people we may lose in this life...Christ died for us so that we may live in the next. What He calls us to do is to take all that pain we have, all our sickness, every burden, all our problems, and every sinful thing we've done...He calls us to take it and nail it to the cross. It is only then that we will be able to live a fulfilling life and have the hope we are looking for.

Take care and God bless,

Tim :)

[Junkiebev]

this would be much better with chocolate rain

[bigtim31]

That would be pretty cool I'd have to say...kinda like Willie Wonka and his Factory!

take care,

Tim

[dracosummoner]

-> bigtim31:

 "Chocolate Rain" is an original song. Look for it elsewhere on YouTube. It's not a Willy Wonka reference.

[bantex81]

God Bless all of you from VT, The Victims Family´s and Friends.... Good video from a very sad day.. God Bless....

[manolonow]

Peace on our heart's the triumph over Evil ,So let the healing rain come and lift there Soul's , may the light of God shine upon them in Jesus name.Amen.

[stavros333]

Moving and inspiring my friend

[goldenguy40]

this is a beautiful way to honor the victims and their families in this tragic situation. God bless all the victims' families.

[xxLovedByGODxx]

gosh! i was crying in like 10 seconds!!! this video is so great!!! VT is in my every prayer!!!

[mo7cow]

thank you for this tribute - it really blessed my heart

[Guppywarlord]

thanks man. I saw your last comment on g0at's response to the first VT Tribute, and I think that you were the only one that actually acted civilized about it (myself included; I kind of got pissed off at him a little bit...). Thanks man =)

[bigtim31]

yeah i know...g0at's a good guy though...his views just a radically different buty you still have to respect him.

peace - Tim

[cubfanatic13]

This is very touching considering what happend on that campus i hope God will bless alll the families that had a death to you all out there u should definitely look and pay attention to the lyrics and pics of this marvelous video may God bless us all!!!

[diegolinhares]

really touching!! God bless all the families that have lost their kids in VT!

[JPantslivesforJesus]

this is absolutley amazing . keep living for Christ . God Bless you.

[KingZanzaBlade]

why you erase my comments! you can't handle the truth!

[bigtim31]

Truth?...for you that is subjective. You have no concept of what truth is. You know less than a billionth of a percent about nothing. So before you want to define truth, get your facts straight before you present them.

[KingZanzaBlade]

stop trying to SOUND smart! truth is something backed with evidence which the whole bible concept lacks! what you just said made no sense! you'll be better of saying, "life is like a box of chocolates..." i'll give you scriptures but i'm afraid you'll erase them anyways necause again like i said you can't handle the truth!

[bigtim31]

man, I feel you...I respect you as a person, maybe not all your beliefs, but when it comes to evidence for the Bible...well let me just say this, there's more evidence to prove the Bible correct than there is enough evidence to prove my own existence. I'm not just saying that to sound smart...Ask me any question refering to evidence for the Bible, and I'll answer it.

[KingZanzaBlade]

(Noah) a global flood is impossible and to say every animal came in pairs of two is exetremely highly impossible. plus Noah was an old person! for him to make a boat big enough is beyond impossible. its impossible!

[bigtim31]

Well, there's really no point in debating this if you're going to be stuck on the thought that life today was the same as it was back then in Noah's age. However, it is logical that there was a flood. Science points to a worldwide flood and nearly every culture has recordings and stories of one occurring. Oh, and refering to the "two of every kind of animal" thing, Yes, God's Word says 2 of every kind...NOT two of every animal known to man.

[MexicanLady916]

so life back then old people could build giant boats? if there was a flood human kind would not exist. about the animals, there's some that man has yet to found so what you're saying is noah put animals on his boat that he didn't even know existed?

[bigtim31]

not to sound rude...but HUH???

[lovekenyon]

you see only gods people truly know that nothing is impossible! with our father GOD who is in heaven!!

[KingZanzaBlade]

the healing rain song goes perfectly with the tragic massacre of Virginia Tech. was it gods work to take them early?

[bigtim31]

I would have to say no, it wasn't God's work at all. Many people think that God's will is always done and whatever happens is His plan. Let me just say that God's will for us is VERY RARELY IF EVER fulfilled. Is it God's plan for rapes, murders, violence, and immortality occur? Absolutely not! God's will for us is to use our own "free will" in choosing whether or not we will follow Him. VT had nothing to do with God, and I can hear Him saying, "I'm sorry, but I'm not allowed in schools anymore."

[roseoil]

this is a quote , losing someone is a part of loving them!

[D1A2S3I4L5V6A7]

Very Touching.

[icrybattle2011]

wow. this was amazing. i really am so touched by this. God has blessed the students that didn't die incredibly! God Bless VT!

[astridina17]

really touching.

[EVAN199]

Thank you so much for the video. Very well done.

God bless VT. We will not forget

[bigtim31]

you guys, can we just keep the comments related to the video. If you want to go back and forth with eachother, then message them directly. But I'm serious...Test me, i'll just delete all your non-relevant comments :)

[ijoinedforjoe]

This is very touching. My cousin goes to Virginia Tech and thank god he is alright but the first shooting in West Ambler...he lives a floor above and it so easily could have been him. I thank god it wasn't.

[K9Handler71]

Just would like to say this is a very nice video. Thanks!

[bigtim31]

Hey, I agree with you to an extent but whatever happens globally caused by the US is based on our GVT making the decisions. This has nothing to do with the 33 people who were killed at the hands of a possessed man taking his anger out on the innocent. I agree that there's an evil part of our nation. However, there is a good moral reflection that most of us do have. Im not an American first! I'm a human being. SO ARE YOU! I hope that you know that some of us do care about what's going on abroad

[regalparks]

Well you see the problem is when Americans make a big deal of something like this, but comparatively they are indifferent to the greater attrocities their nation is commiting abroad. When you do that you are saying through your actions that American blood is worth more than those who are not Americans. And that's the very same mentality that you claim to be against.

[bigtim31]

Can we find some common ground here? So you mean to tell me that 33 people murdered is not something to mourn over? If you want to blame someone, blame the media here in the US that mainly focuses on what's bad at home. But it's not every American's fault for not recognizing the other global problems that need to be addressed. I say it is time we start coming together RIGHT NOW! Whether Jew, Muslim or Christian; American, Asian or African; male, female, young or old. Any problem is OUR problem.

[regalparks]

Hard not be disgusted by the americans and their sob story virginia tech, when their country is killing millions in the world. Sorry, we can not mourn with you now or ever. You are a wicked nation

[bigtim31]

Not to mention, it's my goal to pursue International Missions where I will leave the US and live elsewhere with one goal in mind and that is not to be a "stuck-up" American, but a loving friend to any person in need. I care about Africa; I care about Asia, Europe, South America, all of the countries where their poor make our "poor" look rich, where their wounded make our "wounded" look whole. I don't know why you view us like you do, but you're wrong for your concept of all of us Americans

[dracosummoner]

So answer me this ... those thirty-plus victims who died at the hands of Cho Seung-Hui ... are they somehow responsible for "killing millions in the world?" "Wicked nation?" Every nation on this planet has problems. What makes you better than us, if I may ask?

[regalparks]

over 1 million babies slaughtered every year, millions of people in the middle east murdered, maimed, or displaced because of your nations warmongering. Hundreds of tons of poison in the form of depleted uranium dropped over iraq leading to birth defects, cancers, diseases of all sorts, ...and this is not even scratching the surface. Yes, you are a wicked nation.

[dracosummoner]

Fair enough. So, if I may ask, where are you from, and what do you feel gives you the right to say that your nation is "better?"

[regalparks]

my location is inconsequential to what i'm saying and I am not part of any nation

[woei987]

muddycarrot*sigh* i pity your parents, friends and relatives.

[BethShanFan]

good video good song tim!

see you at work!

[goldenguy40]

[buckboybuck]

[muddycarrot]

Cho Seung Hoi...HERO!!! well done

[bigtim31]

bro...i still love you man

[twaceyloo]

Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.- Anne Frank

If you really think about this it is true... It is just unfortunate that we only see the good in people and see the nation (or world) come together in tragedy.

[serpent71]

OK, our schools need better protection...anyways. Well done.

[GildedViolet999]

Very moving! Great song too! I think I was kind of in shock or somehting not really feeling anything, but this helps me to realise what a tragedy it is, so thankyou! My heart goes out to all the victims and their families, and all the survivors 2! I will pray 4 u! I hope we can learn to stop all the hate and bullying and realise how hurtful it is and how destructive it can be and just have rspect for eachother! I also hope this teaches us what violence can do!
