Five Dead In O-Hi-O

The death tally from a National Guard reaction to protesting students at Kent State University during the Vietnam War was four -- a number immortalized in the chorus of a Crosby, Stills and Nash that says, "Four dead in O-hi-o." That was a tragedy. But this week another example of that new phenomenon, the school shooter, took out not four, but five -- including his grandparents, his mother and two friends. Some of them were killed in their sleep, according to the news.

The news reports that there is a "mystery" as to why he did it, but we know the answer. The evidence hasn't appeared in the news yet, but it will. He was, in our opinion, on psychiatric drugs. That is almost always the case when these unexplainable incidents occur.

Anybody want to start a pool on how long it will be before the news comes out?
