Oregon Gunman Singled Out Christians During Rampage
New York Post ^ | October 1, 2015 | Chris Perez

Posted on 10/01/2015 4:24:48 PM PDT by nickcarraway

The gunman who opened fire at an Oregon community college was forcing people to stand up and state their religion before he began blasting away at them, survivors said Thursday.

A woman who claimed to have a grandmother inside the Writing 115 class in Snyder Hall, where the massacre unfolded, described the scene in a tweet.

“The shooter was lining people up and asking if they were Christian,” she wrote. “If they said yes, then they were shot in the head. If they said no, or didn’t answer, they were shot in the legs. My grandma just got to my house, and she was in the room. She wasn’t shot, but she is very upset.

Maybe the liberals prefer bombs. There are other ways to mass murder. Poison? Killers will kill. If they want guns they will get them.

Why is this fact being left off of most of the MSM reporting?

If you’re going to do that you need to give a source.

Possibly a Gender Confused citizen angry at Christians for their morals based objections to supporting his lifestyle...

Or an ISIS wanabee looking to latch on to a lost cause as a culture warrior

Them holding out tells me they are waiting for the right news cycle or the shooter went beyond plan, or Off the Reservation as it is known in the trade

Think the ending to Manchurian Candidate only he turns bad into worse...

This my friends is full contact Political war.....

God Bless us all!

I live in a small town in Wyoming, and the police here would have had his name out by now. He would have also became acquainted with a armed officer at the school.

You can bet your bippy that nut job was a raghead listening to more ragheads. I can’t believe that someone didn’t have a gun. My Grandsons school has two SRO’s and carry.

That’s where they learn to do head shots, fatal shots.

I think this would be intuitively obvious to even the most casual observer. It does not have to be learned. That knowledge comes simply through instinct.
