Clackamas Town Center shooting: Gunman was Jacob Tyler Roberts
The Oregonian ^ | 12.12.12 | Helen Jun

Posted on 12/12/2012 10:49:42 AM PST by Uncle Miltie

Jacob Tyler Roberts, 22, was the masked man who stormed into Clackamas Town Center Tuesday afternoon, fatally shooting two people and wounding another before turning a gun on himself, police said.

Roberts does not appear to have a criminal history in Oregon, according to court records. He had two speeding tickets earlier this year.

Court records show that Roberts and a woman, Hannah Shoemake, were evicted last summer from their Happy Valley apartment.

Roberts' mother answered her door at her Portland home, but declined to comment to an Oregonian reporter. "I loved my son very much," she said.

Yes thanks for posting that FB link, we are curious because the left is so quick to assign political motives to these kinds of violence.

I don’t see any political but there’s a possibility of a revenge/hate motive.

You can almost hear the sighs of despair of the media because once again, the shooter isn’t a “White Supremacist Neo Nazi Neo Confederate Anti-Government Paramilitary Militia Radical Pro-Life Conservative Tea Party Member with a legally purchased Assault Rifle” (he stole it).

Did I leave anything out?

This miscreant didn’t give them their Poster Child for “Why We Need To Ban Guns” (don’t worry...they’ll come up with it anyway).

Prayers up for the families of the dead folks, either way. Nobody deserves to die like that. Too bad there wasn’t armed CCW citizens there.

Was it a “Gun Free Zone”? Worked real well, if so.

Either way, here it comes again.

Did you see this from the thread before yours?

The guy appears to be associated with a "Hana Hussein."

You know, you’re right....

Why, just the other day, I caught one of mine trying to sneak out of the safe...crawling across the floor, looking for “innocent victims”...

“BACK!” I yelled...”BACK, you evil black plastic and metal spawn of the devil!”

It snarled at me a little, then whimpered as made a move to kick it and ran back into the safe.

It was a close call. I’d hate to think what would have happened had it made it out to the street...

I’m sure his mother is asking herself what signs did she miss?
I would.

What is strange is the shooter’s mother was ACROSS THE STREET when it happened and posted on someone else’s facebook about how scarey it was. How sad. It turned out to be HER SON.

Wow, if the kook is so interested in shooting, why did he have to steal someone else’s gun to do the dirty work?

How sad. Between her stoner life raising her dead sister’s child as her own on her own... Dysfunction leads to dysfunction.

I am so naive - I can’t believe how many people have no security measures on their FB.

I saw the medical marijuana support. From looking at her posts, I assume she is jobless. Not sure why she likes POT so much, enough to take a vacation to look at POT in Jam.

Extremely sad. MSM reporting this earlier today, omitted, with exception of a Fox station, the picture of the shooter.

She “employed” her son so the STATE would pay him $10 an hour, but he didn’t want to work. What kind of messed up world do we live in?
