This kid did an amazing job. He placed 8 of 10 rounds into the shooter from over 40 yards across the food court. He neutralized the shooter within 15 seconds.
He also ushered people behind him to leave and told his girlfriend to get down. He probably saved a lot of lives

The police will shoot you and your dog for very little justification and will get off with no issues 98 percent of the time.
Good on the poor guy who stopped the shooter. Bad on the police.

Hell of a shot with a hand gun in a combat situation at that distance
-
First shot was 40 yards and a hit, then he moved for closer shots. If the mall shooter hadn't waited an hour in the bathroom first he wouldn't have been stopped right away. Lucky timing.

I remember reading something that the police said. I think it was the police chief or something like that in that town. That the kid moved in a tactical, sound way or something like that.
By looking at the picture it looks like that would be a hard shot, but that's a small picture. I think that when you're in a big mall and you're seeing everything life size it looks a little differently.
I played paintball once or twice. And I'm not good at that or anything but someone who knows what they're doing will get you every time.

The story is a nightmare for the left leaning media ..

Hard to believe from that distance. I am a bit skeptical if that is actually the distance. Amazing if so.
-
40 yards at the range is not that hard for that size target, but in a mall shooting at an armed murderer in your first gunfight and hitting your first shot, it's incredible.
-
That's what I was thinking. In real life, 40 yards does not look super far compared to that rendering.... but yeah, incredible poise and shooting. It's not like shooting at a range. More like combat.

Yeah, this is the lead from the NY Times piece on the guy. "When a bystander fatally shot an assailant at an Indiana mall, the country again debated the wisdom of easier access to guns."

Lets see a video of you doing it with your compact or subcompact pistol. :aok

If we all had six shooters on our hips there would be less gun violence
It's the sick creeps who think they are the only ones armed that is the problem not the piece of metal with a barrel

Yep. And they always go to places where they think people won't be armed. Just like this mall shooting. Or school shootings.
-
Gun free zones do not protect. They attract those who wish to commit maximum damage without risk to themselves until they are done. It is the epitome of a shooting gallery where the rounds or knives only go one direction.
While the concept is nice it fails miserably on the altar of reality as do many of liberal ideas. As I have stated before and still believe. Liberal political thinking is a sign of a mental disorder characterized by a severe disconnect from reality and a total misunderstanding of human nature.

The man shot was Misunderstood.
I hope he is alright
He was turning his life around
Does Biden have a gun to protect him?
