The Web site used by the "angel of death" gunman who killed one and wounded 19 at a Montreal college on Wednesday claims 600,000 members and millions of page hits a day, and says it's wrong to link it to the bloody shooting spree. "Jet," the founder of the black and purple Web site, www.vampirefreaks.com. Autopsy results showed Gill died from a self-inflicted gunshot to the head, after exchanging gunfire with police during his shooting rampage at Dawson College in Montreal. The self-styled "Goth/industrial" site was started by "Jet," a Brooklyn resident, in 1999, and users can post pictures along with their likes, dislikes, favorite music and location, and communicate with others in "cults" or groups. The Goth sub-culture is often characterized by black clothing, pale makeup and body piercing. Many of the users write about being alienated from society, and while musical tastes vary, shock rockers such as Marilyn Manson are popular. The site says users must be at least 13 years old to sign up and adds that "excessively gory/offensive pictures are not allowed. This includes cutting images." A user identified as "kimveer_hater" wrote on Thursday: "the only thing I'm sad about in this situation is that you couldn't have removed yourself from the gene pool before harming others. Rot in hell." Some of the "cult" names on the site refer to death, freaks, witchcraft and sex or sexuality. Others refer to bands or have seemingly innocent names. The site links to an online clothing store, which sells black T-shirts, corsets and shorts with chains. The site has been associated with violence before, according to Jesse Hirsh, president of technology services firm Openflows Networks Ltd. in Toronto. In a Toronto trial last year, the girlfriend of a youth accused of killing his younger brother and attempting to kill his stepfather was revealed to have had a profile and pictures on the site. A 23-year old man and his 12-year-old girlfriend, accused of killing a family of three son in Medicine Hat, Alberta, last April, were also reported to have had profiles on the site. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said on Thursday that the Montreal shooting was impossible to comprehend. He also said there is a tricky balance between freedom of speech and Web sites such as vampirefreaks.com. "We as a society have trouble squaring our outrage at some of the images we see, some of the messages that are communicated to young people in particular ... with our belief in freedom and our desire to avoid censorship," Harper said. |

[size=14]Update![/size] High school student from Montreal who is another member of VampireFreaks.com posted at the site the he was going to kill students at his school today. The 15 year old student was arrested this morning at his home before he left for school. In Ontatio a 2cd arrest today of a student who also is a member of VampireFreaks.com was confronted by police who enter his school with a pellet gun. I think this site should be hacked offline. |

Shut the filthy page down... OR... Let it stay up AND have the police monitoring it 24/7 - as they apperently already have done in one case... Also... Make the owners put on a "report" botton on the forum on every entry, which makes it easy to point to a potential dangeous user's sick babling about what not-so-nice-things he's gonna do at school today.
