HOLY FUCK! MASS SHOOTING OREGON

Holy fuck guys, mass shooting in my town, Roseburg OR, at Umpqua Community College, not three miles from where I'm sitting. Many of our friends and families attend or work at the college, and so far reports are showing some 10-20 people killed/wounded.

...Throw one up to whatever deity you may believe in for my little town.

But guns are not the problem... killer could've used a knife instead...
If everyone else had been armed this wouldn't have happened...
We just need more private security in campus...
He was mentally ill... sane people are never involved in mass shootings... we should spend money on helping the mentally ill instead of better controlling access to weapons...

Sorry to hear this. Hope all your family and friends are OK. Why do these nutjobs only target "gun free" zones?
