OC activist arrested for double murder

She was one of those (white) people who were walking around with assault rifles and not being any kind of threat to anyone and therefore safe from police harassment...

Now she is a suspect in the murders of her husband and daughter.

Relevant comments from her buddies in the pro-Open Carry camp:

Quote
I knew her, I'm not that surprised.
...You knew she was a threat but did nothing? If it is not a suprise that she was going to kill her family why the hell did you not act? This is not normal, this is not something that you should just keep your mouth shut about. Regardless of how you feel about carrying firearms or gun control PEOPLE WHO ARE A THREAT TO OTHER PEOPLE should not be walking around with assault rifles.

Quote
Antigun groups are gonna go to town on that one.
...Because that is the real tragedy, right?
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:

Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Meh, the fact that she was an open carry activist is really beside the point. I had heard about this in passing and from what I recall she was arrested after she drove herself to the nut house. I could speculate as to the motives (divorce turned nasty, mental break) but it would only be speculation.

As it stands now, she's been arrested for the crime so we'll have to see what the investigators find.

I wonder if she'll claim she was defending herself from her husband and kid...

Would even an OC hack be that crazy...?

Some of them might be.

Her being an OC activist is not as big a deal as the fact that the other OC activists reacting that a) They knew this was quite likely to happen but did nothing and b) Their main concern is that this might make them look bad.

I also think that the OC advocates are silly as is OC in general, but their reactions are quite awful and that is why the suspect being one of them is relevant to the discussion.
