Title: Ohio Rep. Candice Keller, who blamed mass shootings on drag queens and marijuana, refuses calls for her resignation

An Ohio state lawmaker who blamed mass shootings on legal marijuana, gay marriage and "drag queen advocates" is sticking by her comments despite calls for her resignation, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Candice Keller, a state representative from Middletown, Ohio, originally posted the comments to her personal Facebook page on Sunday. The post came just hours after a gunman opened fire at a bar in Dayton, Ohio, early Sunday morning, killing nine people and leaving dozens more injured.

Keller's post blamed a number of sources, including "the breakdown of the American family," "hatred of our veterans" and "snowflakes, who can't accept a duly-elected president."

Now, some state politicians are calling for Keller to step down. Ohio Republican Party leader Jane Timken called the post "shocking" and asked for Keller's resignation, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

"While our nation was in utter shock over the acts of violence in El Paso and Dayton, Republican State Representative Candice Keller took to social media to state why she thought these acts were happening," Timken said in a statement. "Candice Keller's Facebook post was shocking and utterly unjustifiable. Our nation is reeling from these senseless acts of violence and public servants should be working to bring our communities together, not promoting divisiveness."

Timken has reportedly not spoken with Keller directly about a resignation. Keller, who is currently running for the Ohio Senate, responded to the public statement with a refusal to stall her political career.

"Establishment moderates have never been fans of mine because I ran against their endorsement and won," Keller said in a statement. "As the only conservative in this race, I will be taking my Senate campaign to the voters to decide."

Other lawmakers, such as Cincinnati City Councilman Chris Seelbach, have also spoken out. Seelbach, who was Cincinnati's first openly gay councilman, specifically took issue with Keller's comments on same-sex marriage. He also urged Ohioans to call Keller directly with their thoughts.

Poster Comment:

This lady speaks the truth. No wonder many American youths are so brainwashed by the government education system that they don't know the difference between right and wrong. Killing is fun because it's just like a very realistic video game.

She's wright on target about the LGBT gaggle and the problems created by sucking on marijuana and other joints.

Did anyone place the blame for Sandyhook at Obama's door? I will contribute to her political campaign! (1 image)

Since it's possible she's correct, I say we should ban those things.

I mean, how is that any weirder than the call for banning rifles with folding stocks, a pistol grip, flash hider, or a detachable magazine -- thinking that would have any effect (it didn't)?

What do the El Paso and Dayton shootings have in common with each other (and other mass shooting locations)? Answer: They were designated as gun-free zones.

Yet NO ONE is mentioning this. Instead, all the talk is about new gun laws -- NONE of which would have stopped the last two shooters.

I bet arming the victims would have stopped the shooters. I also bet that if the shooters knew that 10 or 20 people in the crowd might be armed, they never would have gone there to begin with.

Or we can simply cower and hide and pray for new gun laws:

You're right! No enforcement of the laws already on the books, yet the ignorant Republicrats stand ready to join the Democrat Communist Party in issuing new ones that will be surely designed to hinder the law abiding gun owners.

The Dayton shooting isn't getting much coverage because the killer is an avowed supporter of Pocahontas.

Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
