Oregon college shooting

I heard that he was asking people's religion before firing...

"This is the only time I'll ever be in the news. I'm so insignificant," reads an apparent post by the would-be Oregon gunman.

Well it might get interesting...people have been prosecuted before for their actions on social media...there is a chance that law enforcement might go after the forum members. Actually, I don't see why they wouldn't, because they will have to do a thorough investigation, and you would think that includes talking to the people he talked to in the last 24 hours. Don't worry, trouble is brewing for those people and if the law doesn't get them, the public will.

It's 4chan..most posts are totally anonymous and there are some hackers there. They hacked Sarah Palin's accounts amongst others .

Did he live alone? What about his parents? I always feel so badly for the parents in cases like this...

Saw Obama's news conference. His face said it all , he is disgusted with his own people and their stupid 2nd amendment.

and yes I am anti-gun and my stance is known and I don't want to discuss it. We've had this circular discussion before.

Ita...we agree on this subject, but there's no use in discussing it ad nauseam; no one is going to change anyone's mind about it, so why get all stressed out trying to?

I didn't see Obama's speach, but I can well imagine how it went; I've seen it before, far too often...

Guns kill and seem to create a lot of stupid violence. It long over do to ban them. Yes I am and always have been anti-gun.

Imagine going to sleep tonight knowing your child is dead and POLITICIANS and LOBBYISTS(NRA) are to blame

[Lynn49]

Oh, Patty...he's HAD IT with the NRA, hasn't he?! He's beyond disgusted...I don't agree with all his policies, but in this instance, I'm behind him all the way.
Guns DO kill people!!

I posted those stats on the CNN Facebook page on the Oregon shooting. Think anyone will get it? I doubt it.

[DaveP]

I thought you didn't want to discuss this Patty? That's what you said in post 22, then we get post 25 and post 27.

As for who's to blame, his name is Chris Harper Mercer.

[Natalka]

I hope the parents would only blame the one who is guilty, and that's the killer - mental health problems, or not...

Prayers for these families who are going through all of this, such a tragedy.
