Friends Of Nazi Behind Arizona Massacre Try To Blame Murders On Mexicans


Neo-Nazi J.T. Ready killed four people in Arizona yesterday before turning the gun on himself. His racist pals tried blaming the shooting on a "cartel assassination squad."

At this point, it's fairly clear Ready was the shooter -- our former colleagues in Arizona have confirmed with police that they suspect it to be a case of quadruple-murder/suicide. However, Ready's racist hillbilly buddies are attempting to blame the murders on Mexicans (natch) -- despite there being nothing to suggest anyone but Ready was the shooter.

We met Ready several times during our five years in the desert while working for the Voice's sister paper the Phoenix New Times -- he's one of the more charming National Socialists we've had the displeasure of meeting. Subsequently, we "liked" his Facebook page to keep up with what he and his Nazi buddies were up to. Below is what's currently posted on Ready's page:

Reports are unconfirmed that a cartel assassination squad murdered JT Ready and several of his friends and family this afternoon in Gilbert Arizona. This page's admin will keep you updated of the situation as soon as possible.


Law enforcement officials never publicly suspected a cartel hit squad had anything to do with the murders -- and there has been no update.

absolutely bananas . . . but I guess we have to consider the source. That 'type' does not believe that they ever do or think the wrong thing.

Though I'm not surprised that I have yet to read any news story that brings this up as a possible motive in this case..

"Naturally, Nazi scum like Ready and his cronies would initially try to blame the shootings on Mexicans (yes, "cartel" -- in the world of racist hillbillies -- translates to "Mexicans&quot . But the Facebook status was posted after it was confirmed that Ready was the shooter -- and it seems his comrades are too embarrassed to admit that their messiah (not a Mexican hit squad) was the trigger-man."

working with the cartel and was then stupid enough to double cross them? Why would the cartel just murder a house full of people for no reason? Are they admitting to associating with a drug dealer? And a stupid one at that!

When you are in a no win situation, sometimes it is best to just keep your mouth shut. But then again, stupid drug dealer may be a step up from mass murderer.
