Yesterday, an Oregon gunman curiously singled out Christians during rampage:
A woman who claimed to have a grandmother inside a writing class in Snyder Hall, where a portion 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.
For the record, there is a precedent here: Whenever Islamic terrorists raid large centers where Muslims and Christians are intermingled, they routinely separate Muslims from Christians, before massacring the latter.
For example, last April in Kenya, gunmen from the Somali Islamic group, Al Shabaab—“the youth”—stormed Garissa University, singled out Christian students, and murdered them, some beheaded. Read here for more examples.

Jaladhi says
Is the MSM ready to call him a Muslim and jihadi? Or they will call anyone racist who suggests that????
Myxlplik says
I’m sure the MSM along with Obama will mostly see this as a gun problem, and or something akin to more workplace violence like they did with Ft. Hood.
They’ll play it over and over until people refuse to swallow it or they change reality to suite their adgenda.

Last night, rueful (at that point, when I first learned of the above details of this hit), JW had nothing on this; I posted the following at
http://www.weaselzippers.us/235714-shooter-in-oregon-asked-people-their-religion-before-he-started-shooting/:
Those details, BHO knew before he stepped to the mic to dribble his spill on this mass murder; yet, those detail, he counted not worth mentioning.
Though, on our local evening news tonight, which I “record”
daily and view at a later hour; from evening News anchor-women thereat, Shae Rozzi, Fox 23 Tulsa, I first heard of those details in this shooting; yet BHO, in his spill on the murders, counted these details unworthy of mentioning.
Though, so paramount to this mass-murder were those details,
Shae Rozzi, not just once, not just twice, but three times during the 1700 news hour stated them. Did so, once before BHO stepped to the mic, interrupting the show, thus, it cutting and yielded to him and his comments on the shooting; once on the heels of his statements; once more, at end of show.
Those details, as stated above: “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.”
News anchor women, Shea Rozzi, Fox 23 Tusla, knew those facts before the one who fills the office of the Presidency of the U.S. of A. stepped to the mic to speak on it. And as google search provides, do did countless others.
Which means, before BHO stepped to the mic to comment on today’s mass murders, he knew of the facts of this shooting that Shae Rozzi of Tulsa Fox 23 News and others knew.
But unlike Shae Rozzi and others, such details, Mr. BHO—as
did many others one can add to that list–counted those details not worth mentioning.
“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.”

Re: dlbrand’s post on Obama’s unconscionable negligence. If I had a million dollars I would bet it all unhesitatingly on the likelihood that had this Oregon shooter done the same but changed one religion — asked people “Are you Muslim?” then shot them — Obama would be all over that like brown on couscous…

Indeed,
If the Oregon gunman is a Muslim and the MSM know it, then they are giving Obama ample time to control the narrative and spin up a web of obfuscation.
If he is not a Muslim, then Islam and Obama and the Leftist MSM are still to blame for encouraging it by their steady habit of covertly assaulting Christianity.

R Cole says
I thought singling out Christians was more reminiscent of what the terrorists would do. That clearly the gunman had been inspired by Islamic attacks to some degree.
::
And then Obama playing Islamo-politics with it.
After claiming the US spends enormous amounts thwarting terrorist attacks on US soil – says more people die from so-called going-postal gun attacks – and then suggests the media stack the two side by side for comparison.
But if the US did not spend as much – on combating Islamic terrorism – the US would must certainly resemble Pakistan.
I thought Obama’s comments were in poor taste.
Especially since – he makes no such appearances – offering condolences to families when there has been a terrorist attack carried out by a person known to be a Muslim. And if he does speak he purposely plays it down – perfecting to offer his sympathies to the attacker’s mosque – because it is they who are suffering the most by now.

With all due respect, I haven’t seen anything yet to indicate he was a Muslim. Based on his facebook postings, it appears that he was an atheist and a nazi sympathizer. The only thing thing I’ve seen is that he liked Vester Flanagan, the Muslim that killed the tv reporter and cameraman on the air last month in Virginia: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3256633/Shooter-Oregon-community-college-kills-people-campus.html.
I am not in any way trying to cover for him. I just don’t think that every mass murderer is a jihadi or jihadi wannabe, even though it seems that way. Some of them are just crazy.
Del boy says
Wheres the link that flanagan was a muslim?

Flanagan wasn’t a Muslim.

An excerpt: ‘
”The (Russian) Federal Security Services (FSB) is reporting today that an American black-Islamist terror suspect, who yesterday committed an act of mass murder in the State of Oregon (United States), had been included on a list of 87,000 “known/suspected” Islamic terrorists that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) refused last month to accept from the Federation due to its not being “politically viable in the present atmosphere”.
According to this report, the black-Islamist terrorist who committed this act of terror, Chris Harper Mercer, had previously been indentified by electronic intelligence specialists within the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) as being an Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) adherent after he had attempted to gain passage to Syria via Turkey during the first week of September, 2015.
By the Obama regime refusing to accept this terror list from the Federation, this report continues, Mercer was able to accomplish his terror act when yesterday he killed 9 people and wounded 7 others at the Umpqua Community College prior to his being shot and killed by local US police forces.”
Daniel Triplett says
That says it all. Thanks for sharing.
Caliph Ohammad’s entire administration is untrustworthy.
Can’t even trust the military, since all 3 and 4 Stars are sycophants, handpicked by POTUS, kissing his ass for promotion. You need to speak with Colonels and below if you want to hear the truth. Gone are the days of Pershing, Patton, LeMay, and MacArthur: Generals with the balls to kill millions, and tell the POTUS exactly what he needs to hear.
You’ll always hear the honest-to-God truth from me. As a Major, separated from Active Duty USAF, getting in trouble or killing my promotions for publicly speaking truth is no longer an issue for me.

Why on Jihad Watch?
Because even though this shooter was not Muslim, it is clear that he admired the savagery of Islam. One of only two “friends” on his MySpace page is a Muslim supporter of violent Jihad:
“Non-religious” Oregon gunman targeted Christians, had Muslim friend who praised “the brave Mujahideen heroes”

This has the hall mark of the Obama’s administration dislike of Christianity and Christians. By his attitude people are bolden in making Christians their muderous target

Exactly true
Obama’s attitude has emboldened Leftists thinking Athiests, and Muslims to make Christians their murderous target
Joseph says
If this happens to me and I have no way to retaliate I pray to have the courage and proclaim my love for JESUS CHRIST.
If you deny Him,He will deny you.

Islam exists on the outside
Muslims are already dead inside and hey don’t even know it.
Christianity lives on the inside.

My sentiments exactly Joseph
Dan Dagen says
you guys, I hate jihad as much as you, but the shooter just wasn’t a Muslim.
there are plenty of legitimate jihad stories out there.
Joseph says
Dan, what I think that they want you to figure out is that Christians were given that **special** attention. Just like Christians are give the special labeling by the Obama administration and other groups around the world.
This was not an attack BY a Christian, that is the point. Even though the world would paint us as bad or worse than Muslims. You have to read between the lines here.
I would type more but I have to go and plot devious ways where I can torture someone by telling then the “good news” of my precious Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST and possibly save their soul from eternal damnation. I hope that the thought police don’t catch on to my nefarious plot to save souls and bring joy into peoples’ lives.
BlueRaven says
Here is the link to Jihad in the title fo the story- “Singling out Christians for murder is standard practice among Islamic jihadis”
Robertt never stated he is a Muslim. He points out the Jihadis practice the same procedure as this evil-head did. There is no difference between him and a Jihadi the way he singled out Christians. It is obvious to me there are strong similarities between this heinous attack and the attcks by the Jihadies.
gravenimage says
No, Dan–he wasn’t a Muslim. But he was clearly an admirer of Jihad violence, which he replicated himself.
In the same way, Anders Breivik was not Muslim, but he admired Al Qaida.
Peggy says
Maybe he hadn’t converted yet but he was obviously a Muslim at heart.
duh_swami says
The shooter may not have been a pious Muslim, but he did what Allah would want him to do anyway…Allah works in stranger and mysterious ways…Mostly strange and mysterious,,,
Daniel Triplett says
Even if this monster isn’t Muslim, he’s certainly a mercenary for them, doing their evil work exterminating Christians.
somehistory says
No human can read the heart…and now that he is dead, no one can even ask this guy what was in his mind.
Clearly, from all of the first-hand accounts from the people inside the room with the murderer, he was targeting Christians. He also shot …in the legs…those who indicated they were not Christian and those that maybe just didn’t want to admit it after seeing others shot in the head.
From the evidence available, he had a hatred for Christians and/or Christianity and he had a *friend* who is moslem. There is evidence that he admired the IRA which is not just a friendly group of guys who get together at the local pub for a pint. The IRA has committed terror attacks.
The late, never great, mo of the desert, murderer, raper of children, was said to have been rejected by the Jews and developed a deep hatred for Jews and Christians.
Perhaps this murderer, and I will not do as he wished and say or even write his name, was rebuffed at some point by a Christian girl, or in some other way or for some other reason, developed a hatred for Christians.
The use by o of this to try to take away the rights of those who choose to try to protect themselves from others such as he is truly despicable. The victims are pawns to him.
Screeminmeeme says
That Muslim ”friend” on his MySpace Page is known ISIS/ISIL terrorist Mahmoud Ali Ehsani, who is banned in Russia , and was one of only two of Mercer’s MySpace “friends” and who praises the Islamic State, calls for the killing of Jews and glorifies in pictures on his MySpace page his rapture of these terrorists.
Go here to read about Mercer’s being an ”Íslamic State adherent” and on a Russian terror watch list which Obama refused to acknowledge:

Jeremiah says
The Police are requesting the media to withhold that the attack was a jihad attack by Muslims acting for Islam. They say such emphasis would only encourage Islam to commit further attacks. Furthermore, the People don’t need to panic into stopping mass immigration of jihadis to the United States. So let us keep assisting the enemy by ignoring the threat. The police didn’t actually use those words but just listen to the reports and it is possible to see that thinking.
Daniel Triplett says
Yes, the Caliph in our White House certainly doesn’t want this interfering with the Hijrah.
Bezelel says
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1u0Byq5Qis , Suzanna Gratia Hupp speaking to congress about her personal horror of facing a mass murdering shooter while unarmed and lost both parents. Her story should be mainstream knowledge.
gary fouse says
We don’t know the facts yet about this guy. The most troubling thing is that his My Space page had two other people on it, one of whom was some sort of Muslim who was supportive of Jihad. After that this guy Mercer went out in all sorts of directions. Was he sympathetic to jihad against Christians? Had he recently converted? We just don’t know yet. I am just hoping that if such a connection is found and it was a jihad act, the authorities and media don’t hide it from us.
JawsV says
“and media don’t hide it from us”
They already are. The IRA figures on the jerk’s MySpace are mentioned, but not the Jihadi he admired.
The MSM would blame a space alien from Mars before they would a Muslim or Islam.
Screeminmeeme says
We don’t…we won’t know the facts about this guy (at least not from American sources because the Obama administration and his media lackeys will suppress all they can.) I found this yesterday in the EU Times when researching the shooter:
http://www.eutimes.net/2015/10/oregon-mass-shooter-on-terror-list-obama-refused-to-take-from-russia/#.Vg7WeyL3MFw.twitter
It appears that Mercer was on a Russian terror watch list which was offered to Obama, but he refused it ”due to its not being politically viable in the present atmosphere”.
Nelson Abdullah says
That quote, ”due to its not being politically viable in the present atmosphere” translates to the White House has nothing bad to say about Muslims.
mortimer says
NO SHOOTER has asked: ‘Stand up if you are Muslim.’
The supposed ‘religious extremists’ of other faiths are a SCAM called the theory of EQUAL GUILT.
We are supposed to accept that Buddhists, Jainists and Seventh Day Adventists have their OWN violent ARMIES ready to subjugate the world to their coreligionists and EXECUTE those who refuse to submit.
The word ISLAM (submission) reveals which religion is DEMANDING submission.
Raja says
Mortimer,
Your comment: NO SHOOTER has asked: ‘Stand up if you are Muslim.’ is worth a thousand words.
The axis-of-evil (Western European nations,ANZ, North Amercian nations namely US, Canada and the papa included need to be EDUCATED with your golden words.

I don’t believe there is a Islam motivation in this killers actions. No evidence he was a Jihadist. What he was, was the arch typical loner type who is screwed up in the head with his sad life that he wants to end his life and take others with him. That he singled out Christians is not unique in these school massacres. That has occurred before, with Hitler loving neo- nazis. Early reports screened showed Mercer father, who spoke with an Irish accent. On is social media site Mercer had pictures of the IRA. So what is the Irish connection? Is he a radical Catholic? Probably not, as he is said to despise “organised religion”, that might include Islam. Truth is we may never know what was going on in his head.
RaymondX says
That’s what the jihadists in the Philippines did during the Zamboanga City Crisis on September 9–28, 2013. They held all the Christian civilians as human shields and let all their fellow muslims go.
It’s forbidden for a Muslim to transgress against his own kind. Always do it against an infidel.
Ex-muslim says
The only way to stop persecution and murdering Christians in the world today is if Christian fight back against their persecuters. No religious group will survive by keep turning the other cheek to their killers.
Nelson Abdullah says
A story appeared yesterday on the European Union Times that says the Russian FSB had tried to warn Obama about Chris Harper Mercer’s terrorist ties but their warning was rejected. Think someone should check this out.

Something like a copycat crime.
Psychological plague. Bad meme.
Monkey see on TV, monkey do.
Negative stuff can get into the subconscious.
People do stupid things.
Like killing and raping and beheading on behalf of “The Beneficent And Merciful.”
A lot of what people call “religion” is just an internalized habit. Doesn’t have to make any sense. Can be very irrational or incredibly aggressive. Or even lethal.
I know nothing about this case. But there are really bad memes going around out in the wild.
Hate to see a college campus shot up. There will be more and more emotional and social problems when there major negativity gets streamed out to the public. People get toxic, and some toxic people become dangerous. It’s a bad loop.
Look at history and you will see tons of bloody insanity.
One important form of “therapy” for this kind of trauma is for a traumatized person to do daily personal journaling. This helps to organize thoughts and feelings. I happened to be journaling for a couple months when 9/11 hit. The journaling really helped way more than I thought it would. It’s a way to befriend oneself. Wish I’d done journaling many years earlier than 2001.
Music helps. So does a set of hour to two hour walks.

I find it interesting that Alek Scarlatos, one of the three heroes who thwarted the Paris-bound train terror attack last August, is a student enrolled at Umpqua Community College. Scarlatos states that he would have been on the campus on Thursday if not for a previous engagement.
Coincidence?
Could this have been an act of retribution/retaliation?
