I remember it quite well, as it happened in Oct. '91, just a week or two after my family moved from PA to TX and really shook my family up. We never had guns in the house when I was younger, but by then I was 15 or so and my bro just a few years younger so Dad decided it was time and started building his collection. Ahhh, those were the days... We went to many gun shows, got into target and skeet shooting, went dove hunting a couple of times, learned to break down and clean Dad's various guns and learned about reloading. All because of Luby's...
Anyway, I came across this video (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4069761537893819675) which reminded me of the incident.

the lady left her pistol in the car and had a clear shot at the guy but couldn't do a damned thing about it...lost both her mom and dad in the shooting iirc. All because she followed the law. Could have saved alot of people that day because she knew how to use a gun, but she left it in her car.

I knew I recognized her from somewhere, must be from P&T... And yeah, she sure is a looker. RAWR!

Yes I remember, that incident and the Branch Davidians led to Waco being called Wacko.
Bad day.
Great speech by this woman, I especially loved how she ended it.

Was good to see her get into Chuck Shumer's face. Normally he'd interrupt, stonewall, all the usual political tricks. But against a woman, a woman who's lost her parents at that, he has to just shut-up, sit there and take it. :D
