Cho and other Asian shooters were portrayed as "smart but quiet" and "fundamentally foreign." What do these stereotypes reveal, and what do they obscure?

    My first assumptions when I heard about the shootings at Virginia Tech were that the shooter was: a male, white, student, and that he has problems interacting with women. My hypothesis came out to be 50% wrong.

    That's only 25% wrong. He was male, he was a student and he had problems interacting with women. He just wasn't white.
