The shooting is the latest incident of gun violence in the United States, raising demands for more gun control and more effective treatment of the mentally ill. Yeah just want to get one thing straightened out here. The shootings in Oregon were IN FACT religiously motivated.
The shooter asked each person their religious orientation before firing. "The MySpace page contained pro-Irish Republican Army pictures and video. The user shared only two connections on the social-media page. One connection was with Mahmoud Al Ehsani, a man who had several photos of the mujahideen on his profile page". He was in contact with radical extremists. Radical Islamic extremists commit these crimes for one reason, and one reason only. The caliphate. If you don't know what that is, then I think you should do some research of your own. But to help you understand how massive the caliphate is and how much people believe in it, lets take a look at other religiously motivated attacks in a different part of the world, Iraq, where the caliphate is most prominent.
