Student Shooter at Umpqua Community College Dead, Sheriff Says
ABC News ^ | October 1, 2015 | Meghan Keneally

Posted on 10/01/2015 3:31:30 PM PDT by Clintonfatigued

A male student killed multiple people at a shooting today at a community college in Roseburg, Oregon, authorities said.

The shooter is now dead, police said. The shooter's identity has not been publicly released, though Oregon Gov. Kate Brown announced that he was 20 years old.

Gov. Brown’s spokeswoman Kristen Grainger confirmed that the shooter was a student at the school.

Grainger also said that the number of fatalities and injuries totaled 20 people, but would not specify how many were dead and how many were injured. Neither the sheriff's office nor the governor's office or the state police would specify the number of fatalities, though earlier today State Police Lt. Bill Fugate who spoke to ABC affiliate KATU that at least seven people were killed.

"It is believed there is only one shooter who is no longer a threat," the Oregon state police said in a statement. "There is no current threat to the community."

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Will the Drive-by media be calling for gun control again?

Obama on TV, right now, demanding that your guns be taken away.

He can “Preach” on this and the media will sing along, diverting from the now politically-incorrect to report Syrian debacle.

NO, but they’re making a big deal over the fact that he’s male. He apparently was a student there.

Another convenient mass shooting to get people’s minds off of inconvenient headlines. And 0bama gets to act like he cares and call for more gun control.

The REAL "threat to the community" is the LIB idiots and weenies who push for "gun-free zones".

My guess is theyre clamping (have clamped) down the process now. With the alphabet agencies in cahoots with google, facebook etal, the public will now only have THEIR information on this and any future perps.

...yes. they are/have/will be scrubbing.
Brave new world and all..

If they find out he’s a mussie you better bet they’ll scrub everything about him but his name since he was a student there.
