A law enforcement official has identified the gunman as Chris Harper Mercer, 26, and said he had three weapons, handguns and at least one long gun.
It was not clear whether he fired them all. Law enforcement officials said he lived in the Roseburg area, and they said one witness said that he asked about peoples religions before he began firing.
He appears to be an angry young man who was very filled with hate, one law enforcement official said.

From what's being reported this person is not the "eggman" from 4chan. It's a entirely different person.

IF that is him I'm not surprised about the conservative Republican stance.
