    Mass shooting in Ohio

    Now it's just getting weird.

    Nine people are dead after a shooting in Dayton, Ohio, according to police. Dayton Police say the suspect also is dead. Sixteen additional people were injured in the incident that took place within 13 hours of a shooting that left 20 dead in El Paso, Texas.

    The Dayton shooting took place around 1 a.m. outside on East 5th Street in the city's Oregon district, a popular downtown area, Dayton Deputy Director and Assistant Chief of the Police Lt. Col. Matt Carper told reporters early Sunday morning.

    The suspect, who was shot and killed by responding officers, has not yet been identified, but Carper said the subject fired a "long gun" with multiple rounds. The shooting happened as the suspect was making his way toward a bar called Ned Peppers, Montgomery County Emergency Services spokeswoman Deb Decker said.

    The last 2 shootings remind me of Malcom Gladwell's position on the threshold of violence. The slow motion acceleration of a mob that is influenced by others actions despite having no prior relationship.

    4 mass-casualty incidents within two weeks. Something’s off here...

    I think Lon works for the P.D. in Dayton. Hopefully we'll hear from him at some point, and more importantly I hope he and his are all safe and accounted for.
    There's nothing civil about this war.

    I have a number of clients in that area. Prayers go out to Dayton, they have been dealing with an opioid epidemic, tornadoes, and now this.
