“Odd” they are hiding the mother. Why does the media not want to talk to the person closest to the killer?
'Look all over the world, you don't see these kinds of mass shootings all over the world like you do in the United States,' he said during an interview with CNN.
'So someone has to ask the question, "How is it so easy to get all these guns?" Thirteen guns? I've never held a gun in my life - and I don't want to.'
'How are you able to compile that kind of arsenal?'
'It has to change, how can it not? Even people who believe in the right to bear arms, what right do you have to take people's lives?'
'That's what guns are, they're killers. What do you want a gun for?' ...... Source
She can’t possibly be his mother, she’s black. /sarc
also odd that his father didn’t recognize the insanity and refer his son for help. It’s as if daddy didn’t even know his own son.
Because the mother, IMHO, was a nut job that would make Adam Lanza’s mom look like June Cleaver.
There are reasons the left wing mediots are avoiding his African American aka black mother. She was a gun buyer and probably bought most of the guns her son with Asperger’s disease used to kill people. She armed and trained her mentally ill son. People with Asperger’s are like ticking bombs that can go off at any time. A sane person doesn’t buy arms and train these dangerous mentally ill people.
Since she is black, that destroys the mediots mantra of evil white killers.

The mother of the Oregon mass murderer stockpiled firearms because she feared stricter gun laws — and shopped around for a shooting range that would let her and her son fire away without supervision, the Daily News has learned.
Laurel Harper, a nurse who shared an apartment with her son Chris Harper Mercer, spoke openly about her love of guns, said the mother of one of her patients.
“She said she had multiple guns and believed wholeheartedly in the Second Amendment and wanted to get all the guns she could before someone outlawed them,” Shelly Steele, who hired Harper to provide care for her sickly teenage son, told The News in an exclusive interview Saturday.
“My husband is an avid hunter and former military, so she would talk to him about it all the time, how she liked to take her son shooting,” Steele said.
Harper told Steele she tried a shooting range close to the Umpqua Community College campus but didn’t like it “because it wasn’t very private.”
“You needed to have a range master with you, and she didn’t like anyone watching,” said Steele, who lives in Winston, Oregon.
“She wanted more privacy.”
Harper found a better match in a gun club in Myrtle Creek, Steele said.
“He liked to do it with her,” she said, referring to Chris.
“She told my husband she just purchased some new guns a few weeks ago and took him shooting.
I thought the whole situation was very strange. If you
know your son has mental health issues, do you encourage a fascination with guns?
Steele spoke out two days after Harper’s heavily-armed son murdered eight students and their instructor before fatally shooting himself.
Steele said Harper told her that Chris was “sickly” as a child, had “mental problems” growing up and suffered from Asperger’s.
“One of the reasons she moved up to Oregon was to get away from California and give him more space and peace and quiet,” she said.”
Wouldn’t do to show the killer’s mother is Black. Would ‘kill’ the angry White male narrative.
Hey Dad,
Good job of fathering!
Like, where were you in raising this person?
Glass houses, dork!
““Odd” they are hiding the mother. Why does the media not want to talk to the person closest to the killer?”
Because she is black and bought the guns and then took him to shooting ranges without a fire control monitor, so he could shoot by himself.
She did this in spite of knowing her son had Asperger’s, which probably why he got bounced out of Army Boot Camp.
Guns don’t mix with people with Asperger’s.
