Oregon Shooter Died Of Suicide

[Lakhota]

Christopher Harper-Mercer, the gunman in Thursday's mass shooting at Umpqua Community College in Oregon, died by suicide, local law enforcement officials announced on Saturday.

The suicide occurred during a firefight with law enforcement officers, who had arrived to disarm him, Douglas County Sheriff John Hanlin said at a press conference on Saturday.

A Roseburg, Oregon, police officer and an Oregon state trooper exchanged fire with Harper-Mercer within minutes of arriving at the scene. The medical examiner subsequently ruled Harper-Mercer's death a suicide, suggesting that Harper-Mercer shot himself before law enforcement could kill him.

Let's stop mentioning his name. "The Oregon shooter" works just as well.

 

[Auld Phart]

I'm amazed.

That IS a good response time

 

[Delta4Embassy]

Shouldn't. We don't refer to the JFK assassination as 'the Hinkley shooting' so why give mass murderers what they desire as with fame?

 

[browsing deer]

It gives the shooter what he wanted. He will be nameless.

JFK? Hinkley? Are you really that dumb?

Slip of the recollective tongue.

he doesn't believe in knowing the names of the jerks, so lattitude will be granted.

He Knows Reagan and Kennedy. That is what is important

He was not a Muslim. You and others on USMB appear to be having a really difficult time accepting the facts.

Just curious.

Yes. Quick relative to police. About a 5-6 minute response from time of active shooter call to cops on scene.

It was 9 minutes between time of dispatch call and cops shooting at him.

Now.......look at your watch. And wait 480 seconds. How much damage can a shooter do in that time?

Then....watch a UFC fight. Rounds are 5 minutes long. Look at just how LONG of a time even 5 minutes is.

If a gunman pulls a gun in a crowd....and begins killing....the cops are NOT going to be there. For a long time.

Unless....we put more good guys with guns in more places.

"Christopher Harper-Mercer, the gunman in Thursday's mass shooting at Umpqua Community College in Oregon, died by suicide, local law enforcement officials announced on Saturday."

A damn shame that he didn't choose that option first, not last.

Arm as many as you want - so long as they pass a background check and are competent to carry. They should also have the balls to use it if necessary. At least one Oregon student was armed - but didn't have the balls to use it.
