Tarak Andrew Underiner is the first homicide victim of Columbus, Ohio in 2017. He was also a strong vocal advocate of campus carry at OSU where he was a student.
According to The Dispatch “Medics pronounced Underiner, a senior, dead at the scene at 12:41 a.m. Police said early Thursday that they do not believe Underiner was a random victim and that the slaying does not have ‘any connection’ to the university.”
This is a story that needs to be followed. I do not want to kick off any conspiracy theories or jump to conclusions, but I would like to know, since the police do not believe that he was a random victim, if this shooting had anything to do with his high profile support of campus gun rights. I say this only because it comes on the heels of some other high profile anti-Trump/anti-Conservative attacks.
That and Underiner’s body isn’t cold yet and the antis are already being snarky while dancing in his blood.
Yup. I’d not be at all surprised to learn he was targeted by a follower of the cult of gun control. They tend to be more violent – and project that violence onto others.

As always, initial reports are of dubious reliability.
Damn, sorry to hear this one.
Being prepared to defend oneself is not “live by the sword, die by the sword.”
Wouldn’t sulfide me. I got a lot of threats and such when I was in the executive board of the college republicans and working with campus carry. A “reporter” for the school tag ambushed interviewed my girlfriend outside of the library one night. Progs can’t stand reason so they turn violent.
