Mentally ill & following the wishes of people that fed hysterical beliefs to him about sex offenders, Patrick Drum is hailed by the instagtors as a hero for murduring sex offenders. Meanwhile, his supporters spit on the bereaved widow and family of one of the murdered men; throw objects at their car, and stalk their home. Scientific statistical facts prove that 3 out of every 5 molesters never re-offend in a lifetime once they are confronted and deal with the problem. However, the subculture responsible for these egregious acts against murdered men, their innocent families, decency, and society, intentionally spread lies that falsely claim that sex offenders are uniformly a class of people that cannot repent or be rehabilitated.
Patrick Drum, 34, was sentenced to life without parole, for fatally shooting two convicted sex offenders in Washington state in June 2012.

At 2:30 p.m., after a three-hour manhunt, police found Drum, who told a detective that he shot Ray and Blanton several times “because they were sex offenders," according to the court documents. He told the detective that he had intended to drive to another county and kill a third sex offender, according to the records. Drum, who pleaded guilty to the double murder, told Judge Ken Williams in July that he wanted to represent himself because “he stood up for a belief and the attorneys don’t have the same belief,” the Sequim Gazette reported.
In court Tuesday, [the judge] chastised Drum’s supporters, KOMO reported. The wife of one of the two men killed said that people who consider Drum a hero have stalked her home, spat on her family and thrown things at her car.
Blanton, 28, was convicted in 2001as a teenager of third-degree rape, according to the National Sex Offender Registry. Ray was convicted in 2002 of first-degree rape of a
child.
