Mom of Oregon shooter is a gun nut.... So is the Sheriff

The mother of the Roseburg, Oregon shooter stockpiled firearms because she feared stricter gun laws. Laurel Harper, the mother of the shooter, shared an apartment with her son. She was aware that he had mental problems, but chose to stockpile guns in her home because she feared the Obama administration was going to pass laws making it more difficult to get guns. She would seek the least restrictive gun ranges to take her son so the two of them could shoot as they desired. She had purchased several guns just weeks before her son killed nine innocent people. ~ Source

Just let that sink in for a moment. Gun nut momma, knowing her son had severe mental issues, chose to keep lots of guns in their home and instill a love of boom sticks in him. I so am in awe of this STUPID! This is the STUPID that is rampant in America today.

Meanwhile, the Sheriff of the county surrounding Roseburg posted a video to facebook a while back that questioned whether the Sandy Hook massacre ever happened. He once wrote a letter to O'Bama saying he won't enforce gun laws he don't like. He even threatened to arrest ATF and other federal agents. Needless to say, now this gun nut Sheriff is saying about all that, "Oh, naww, naww. Nothing to see here."

This is the STUPID that sets the USA apart from other civilized nations in that our gun violence is horrifically higher than other civilized nations. We're in the company of failed states throughout the world. How's that for "American Exceptionalism"?

The mother of the rage-filled loner who shot and killed nine people at an Oregon community college blasted opponents of open-carry laws and bragged about her personal arsenal of weapons online, according to reports.

Laurel Harper, a nurse who shared an apartment near the Umpqua Community College campus with her troubled 26-year-old son Chris Harper Mercer, boasted on Facebook that she owned a stockpile of handguns and assault rifles, according to vocativ.com.

“And when the mood strikes, and as long as we’re tossing around brand names, I sling an AR, Tek-9 or AK over my shoulder, or holster a Glock 21 (not 22), or one of my other handguns, like the Sig Sauer P226, and walk out the door,” Harper bragged. “I find the shotguns are a little too cumbersome to open carry.”
