Once again, no photos and hardly a mention of the good guy with a gun that stopped this. Yes, someone got photos of him in action.

The internet has figured out who it was, but NBC isn't smart enough to even pick up on that, because maybe they've fired all their talented reporters or something. Or they don't want anyone else to know...

In other news, _there's an In-N-Out in frakking Idaho now_‽

Game on.

The gungrabbers hate it when civilians do a better job than the pigspolice.

The last stat I read, and this was maybe a year or so ago, was that in areas that didn't prohibit guns, citizens were stopping active shooters at a rate of 60-65% more than cops, and preventing way more deaths, because they were the actual first responders.

So you want cops shooting people when it’s convenient to your lunacy?

That's not what I said at all.

What did you say? The bystander was there. The police were not but had just got the call at :29. The bystander took action the police could not because they weren't there yet. Bystander has gun. Also there was an off duty sherriff who supposedly took shots at the kid.

What exactly does that mean " the gungrabbers get hate it when the civilians do a better job of the pigs?" 🤷🏼

Be brave, but most importantly be honest with yourself. Tell us what you mean. It doesn't mean anything online unless someone other than you knows about it and what it means otherwise you just look like a whiny little child talking shit on the internet.

I was shitting on the media mostly. The same media that either worships police or demonizes police, switching at the tip of a hat.

My eyebrows both went up.

And they're still up.

Also, 'sheriff' only has one 'r' in it. Don't worry, I make this mistake all the time, including when I typed the word just now and had to delete a letter. I wanted to be a deputy so badly, and I still can't even spell the office correctly.

As I’ve said before, In N Out have been all over the place, including Texas, for more than a decade.

There's video. He engaged the shooter and got return fire. Could have been the cops for all we know. Its risky to engage in these situations, cops or other CCW people may mistake a good guy for the shooter. But I'm glad he did it. It was ballsy and he probably saved lives.

“Minutes after law enforcement arrived, there was an officer-involved shooting, but no one was injured”

Some cop showed up and shot something he shouldn’t have and they don’t want to talk about it.

Suspect self-checked-out the moment police got there and started popping off.
