The gruesome massacre in Ohio last week had the good folks of Everytown/Moms Demand in a frenzy.
I found it a bit strange that the shooting was done in several places and waited for more info to come in. Some of the people I interact with felt the same way: There was something just not kosher… and we were right.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The slayings of eight family members in rural southern Ohio were sophisticated, planned executions, authorities said Sunday, as they also revealed that several marijuana-growing operations were found at the crime scenes.
Investigators said at a news conference that it’s unclear what, if any, role the marijuana growing had in Friday’s killings at four homes near Piketon. Marijuana, both recreational and medicinal, is illegal in the state.
They also told residents they are safe but to arm themselves if they’re fearful.

So people engaged in the drug trade, got killed in suspicious circumstances. We never heard this before, have we?
I would not be surprised if the investigation reveals that this was not the job of one guy but multiple killing teams. It looks like the massacres done by the Mexican Cartels on their turf. Let’s see what does the investigation finally reveals.
I do love the advice given to local area neighbors: Get your guns!
W/ the attention span of fruit flies, it’s the initial report that gets the donations. They’ve already moved on to the next click bait article or reality show. Not like they’ll do anything other than hit their caps lock key and type.
Indeed! Follow-up on stories is never as widespread and intense as initial reports. Often times, the story is completely different, yet folks only remember the initial reporting.
Watch Penn & Teller’s episode of “Bullshit” about the “War on Drugs”. If the CSGV truly want to reduce murders around the country, take Penn & Teller’s advice and focus on eliminating the war on drugs.
So, once again, it’s not drugs and the criminal activity attendant to them; it’s the Big Bad NRA, and gun owners everywhere.
These nasty Dansers Macabre are not concerned with the truth at all, only with their agenda of disarmament.
Look at all the hateful comments that the NRA and firearms owners are somehow responsible for not preventing this and at the same time responsible for it. Which is it?
Meanwhile our national firearms deterred or stopped a multitude of robberies, rapes or murders, but this is ignored.
Finally, if it turns out to indeed be a drug turf murder situation, then all I can say is that the commenters are morons.
I love the comments by MD action asking where the good guy w a gun was. It’s our fault if we’re not there to stop the evil and they try to SWAT us if we are, conflicted much?
