Beware: Now this is a very disturbing story. Seven people are dead and seven others have been injured in California after 22 year old Elliot Rogers went on a series of drive by shootings. Rogers released a video the day before promising he would go on a killing spree because he spent years being lonely, and horny. He complained about still being a 22 year old virgin. Also, we’ve just learned Roger is the son of Peter Rodger, the second unit director of the first installment of “Hunger Games.” Check out the video and the details! Crazy!!
The shooter, identified by a local report as Elliot Rodger, 22, was also killed, but it’s unclear if he shot himself or died while exchanging gunfire with cops.
It took just 10 minutes for the terrifying violence to unfold in downtown Isla Vista, near the University of California’s Santa Barbara campus.Sheriff Bill Brown called it “the work of a madman.”Rodger, of Calabasas, posted a series of videos to YouTube in which he ranted and whined about being lonely and not having a girlfriend.
In the final video posted last night, Rodger, sitting in the driver seat of his black Beemer, promised that “tomorrow is the day of retribution.”
Gunfire rang out at 9:27 p.m., catching the attention of deputies on foot patrol who heard multiple shots and quickly discovered victims. Just six minutes later they encountered the killer and opened fire in two separate confrontations, according to the Santa Barbara Independent.
The shooter drove off, eventually crashing into a parked car, where officers found him with a gunshot wound to the head and a semi-automatic handgun inside the vehicle.
The license plate of the gunman’s car matches the plate of a car seen on Rodger’s Facebook page, according to the Independent.
In the final video posted to Rodger’s YouTube page, titled “Elliot Rodger’s Retribution,” he declares, “This is my last video. … It has come to this. Tomorrow is the day of retribution. … My life is so lonely and mundane. I have no friends, no girlfriends, no love, no sex.
“… I’m not allowed to enjoy life in this world, because I’ve been cast out. No one likes me. No one accepts me.”
Rodger calls his struggles to find a girlfriend and his inability to fit in “an injustice that needs to be dealt with.”
