Maniac mass murderer in Oregon community college targeted only Christians


It was a maniac loose in an Oregon community college when the killer targeted only Christians. It was yet another instance of gun violence in an American school. The murderer identified as Christopher Harper Mercer had killed at least nine people and wounded at least seven others at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg before falling to an exchange of gunfire with police.
This has been reported in foxnews.com dated 2 October 2015.
The motive of murders is not clear but Investigators are examining Mercer's online presence very closely. In the opinion of one law enforcement official, the individual appeared to be "an angry young man who was filled with hate." Investigators were also poring over what he described as "hateful" writings by Mercer.
It seems the gunman had issued "some sort of race-related manifesto" before the shooting.
A witness who had seen a teacher get shot in the head has revealed that the killer had told the students to get on the ground before asking people to stand up and state their religion. He then began firing. Hence the conclusion that he was a selective killer.
Such killings will continue unless America takes a firm stand and introduces suitable measures to arrest the free availability of guns and easy access to firearms.
