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."

“while they enable millions of criminal ILLEGALS and ISIS to flood our country,”

Yep. Attacks using knives,machetes,and axes are preferable.

And of course the all-time favorite. Beheadings.

Keep your panties on folks, they never release a name until families are notified, and we don’t have enough info to make a decision on what happened or what the motives were.

Of course Obama gets on TV and brays about “common sense gun laws”. yeah right, I’ve seen the questionnare he signed saying he is in favor of confiscation.

One more reason to eliminate gun free zones.

Two things are in common with all of these shootings. All have taken place in gun free zones, all of the perpetrators were taking or had recently taken behavior modification drugs like Prozac or Ritalin.

People are focusing on this guy as the shooter. He has a youtube channel with several videos where he talks to the camera. He likes to ramble on, that’s for sure.

They took all of the students and loaded them onto buses to some central location. Do you think they wanted to tell all of them to not talk to the Media before letting them be picked up by their parents?

There must be some mistake. This just couldn’t have happened in this gun free zone. /s

Been watching Fox News and Greta Van Whatsis who kept asking inane questions. If the shooter was anything other than white they’ll pull it back. In those other shootings they ID the shooter right away as soon as they knew, like that shooting at the recruiting center. They even know where he lived and he also was a student there according to reports so the BS about not knowing who or what he was is stupid.

Students with carry permits are allowed to do so at this community college. However, the age requirement for a carry permit is 21. That cuts down on the amount of students 21 yrs old in class at a junior college in the early afternoon. Instructors carrying in class? In liberal land Oregon? Probably not.

This will crowd the old news about obama’s ME policy failures allowing Russia to invade the middle east right off the entire news cycle.

They will release the name regardless.

If he's a convert, they will only release his pre-conversion name, just like they did with the shoe bomber.
