    I live near the mouth of Payson Canyon. It shook the neighborhood up. Apparently, they stole a bunch of his guns and ammunition. The police are keeping pretty quite about possible motive, etc.

      I'll go out on a limb and guess that in the end it is drugs. Nothing is more readily turned into cash than guns. Cash to buy drugs. We'll see, but what a horrible, horrible tragedy.

        I live near by as well. Sort of freaked the wife out. Any sound and I had to go check the locks.

          Looks like he taught mechanical engineering for 30 years, retired in 2005, and recently returned from a senior mission with the Mrs.

            My Sister-in-Law's family lives less than 1/2 a mile from there. It sounds like they were after the guns. I think it's probably wise to have a gun or two in the home, but I still don't understand people who stockpile weapons like Armageddon is right around the corner.

              Sad, very sad. If you have a lot of guns, probably not a good idea to let anyone know.

                We probably know each other. I'd better be on my best behavior from now on!

                      Probably not too many liberals with blue hair in your area. He should stick out like a sore thumb.

                        Liberal? Why would you call me such a nasty thing?

                          He meant "progressive."
                          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                            Maybe I got you mixed up with one of the myriad of progressives on here.

                              Sort of. I recognized his photo but I don't know him very well.

                              What a sad story.
