Not to butt into a real good bashing here, but I`d like to say there is still hope for the human race in some instances. Some people don`t digust me.
The shooting in Tyler, Tx last week on the steps of the courthouse is an example.
The shooter was POed at his ex over a custody battle, came to the courthouse with his AK, blasted her, hit his older son, then started shooting people and popping rounds in general. The man that was on the scene outside of the courthouse with the CC permit did one hell of job even though it cost him his life.
The films from inside the courthouse shows most of the law enforcement inside in kind of a shock and taking cover. They did not know what was coming down and how to react to it without knowing what was happening outside. All they heard was gunfire. LOTS of gunfire.
The man with the CC permit began returning fire. He hit the lunatic quite a few times in the process. The luny knew what he was coming for, what the outcome would be, and was prepared for it. He was wearing body armor.
The man with the CC permit kept him under fire until he was shot and killed. It will never be known how many lives this guy saved by keeping the lunatic under fire and giving the general public a chance to take cover and get out of the line of fire.
It is quite apparent that the luny was going to take down as many people as possible as long as he was still alive.
This was just yet another instance where a CC permit holder saved numerous lives by being there. He gave his own life in the process to do so. I surely hope this is not swept under the table like most things like this and the guy is remembered with some kind of monument, etc. People such as himself should be remembered.
