Re: 10 dead, 20 wounded in mass shooting at Oregon community college
To be honest is this a UK news story?
I mean can we go to our local Asda buy nappies, 1 military grade assault rifle, 1 desert eagle hand gun and enough ammo to last the apocalypse?
The trouble is the biggest fund in the democrats & republicans come from the NRA, so guess what chance you have of gun laws changing.

Don't forget to pick up your silencer while they're BOGOF. It's your constitutional right to go tooled up for covert ops.

For all the anti muslim paranoia evident in the US the truth is they're far more likely to be murdered or maimed by their very own brand of angry deluded maniac.

Re: 10 dead, 20 wounded in mass shooting at Oregon community college
Americans are unstable. they'd sooner kill each other rather than have a different opinion with each other.
they're psychotic and liable to freak out at any second.
and I don't think it all comes from the burgers.

Not the biggest funders, and the NRA spend much more for the Republicans and against the Democrats by a factor of 600 and 100...

Re: 10 dead, 20 wounded in mass shooting at Oregon community college
Looking at current reports it seems like the killer was an atheist terrorist.
From the Mirror:

He is seen posing with guns in a number of pictures online, and on his internet dating profile wrote that he "doesn't like organised religion", the Express reports

He appears to have left an online footprint that hints at interest in mass shootings as well as apparent support for the IRA.
|
Quote:
A profile on the site belonging to Mercer on the website Spiritual Singles, which advertises itself as “a free online dating & social networking site specifically for spiritual singles,” and bears a picture of the same person as Mercer’s Myspace page, the alleged killer describes himself politically as a “conservative, republican” whose hobbies are “internet, killing zombies, movies, music, reading” and who lives with parents.

I've also read elsewhere that he had neo-Nazi tendencies also.
Let's see what comes out in the wash here.

Re: 10 dead, 20 wounded in mass shooting at Oregon community college
He was posting on 4chan the night before, I came across the thread on Reddit as they quickly put two and two together. The news however are not also connecting the numbers.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-34423387
I have the original thread but it's honestly NSFL, the amount of people supporting him and encouraging him, even going as far as giving him direction on what and how to do it. The original thread can be found for those that seek it, it has no place here. The original post he made is screenshotted and posted to the BBC above.
He did however post a message under that along the lines of ''10 mins to go''
4chan is a pretty disturbing vile place that doesn't help anyone that favours a free internet without censorship.

And yet nothing will change at all sadly.

The gunman who killed nine people and wounded seven others in Oregon had targeted Christians, the father of one of the victims says.
Named as Chris Harper Mercer, the gunman opened fire on Thursday inside a classroom at Umpqua Community College.
Officials said on Friday that he had body armour, three pistols, a rifle and five extra magazines of ammunition.

IIRC that that amendment also stated that the right to bear arms was " as part of a regulated militia" Not every man for himself.
Something that seems to have been forgotten.
