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.”

The Facebook post was in response to comments about open-carry laws.

Pretty sure, if that's true, 'ol Mom will be pretty tight lipped for quite a while to come.

Yes, I read about that yesterday Sgt Tom Cunnally. The article said she was fiercely protective of her son who was bothered by the noises of children playing nearby and neighborhood animals. In addition to his controlling mother, the shooter seems to have been very interested in gun rights and in favor of them.
He also made a posting the day or night before telling people to stay away so he was planning to do what he did at least one day prior.
