The heavily armed gunman who slaughtered nine people at an Oregon college left a hate-filled note at the scene of his rampage and "felt the world was against him," law enforcement officials confirmed Friday.
Two officials familiar with the contents of the note say 26-year-old Christopher Harper Mercer, who was killed in a firefight Thursday with police at Umpqua Community College, wrote that he would be "welcomed in Hell and embraced by the devil."

You know why. So they can turn the shooter into a Christian.
His mother Is Laurel Margret Harper Mercer Is said to be a Nurse Practitioner. She is licensed in Oregon as an LPN, NOT a NP.
I understand his social media accounts have been hacked/forged many times....what to believe?
Well, there ya go, an admitted moslem.
The “conservative Republican” reference came from his profile on a dating site. No doubt he thought that would get him a date faster than telling them he was a pill-head Satan worshiper.
He shot his classmates.
>>”He was a student at Umpqua Community College and was enrolled in the class where the mass shooting took place.” Douglas County Sheriff John Hanlin said Friday. It had earlier been reported that he had no connection to the school.

Quibbling over accents?
Or is there a point I am missing about the father?
I saw an interview with the father of a wounded student. He was very emotional. He described the shooting as it was told to him. But the underlying theme to his comments was why did it take so long for someone to respond? I don’t know if he was critical of staff or perhaps, just perhaps, wondering this would have ended far more quickly, and without less carnage, if one of the students was armed.
Good point in post 19. Notice “but” as though his not hearing it could actually call into question whether it happened or not. He was in an entirely different room.
“with”
I think he wrote conservative republican once on a profile page as a goof or to lure conservative women to him. No reason to believe he was any such thing.
Is that for real in post 44?
Everyone tells the absolute truth on dating sites. /s
Yep
And sensitive and coddled.
>>Former neighbors in Torrance, a city near Los Angeles, said Mr. Mercer’s mother had sought to protect him from all manner of neighborhood annoyances, from loud children and barking dogs to household pests. Once, neighbors said, she went door-to-door with a petition to get the landlord to exterminate cockroaches in her apartment, saying they bothered her son.

“She said, ‘My son is dealing with some mental issues, and the roaches are really irritating him,’ ” Julia Winstead, 55, said. “She said they were going to go stay in a motel. Until that time, I didn’t know she had a son.”

More about the shooter:
>>Reina Webb, 19, said the man’s mother was friendly and often chatted with neighbors, but Harper-Mercer kept to himself. She said she occasionally heard him having temper tantrums in his apartment.
“He was kind of like a child so that’s why his tantrums would be like kind of weird. He’s a grown man. He shouldn’t be having a tantrum like a kid. That’s why I thought there was something — something was up,” she said.
I don't think he was a fan because they were Catholic but because they were successful long-term terrorists.
What race were the victims, since this is now being investigated as a hate crime and the killer is bi-racial?
Waco ballistics came back from DC as small caliber or some such. From DOJ, no less.
So, yeah, let’s really believe the enemedia.
