Another Mall shooter finds his destiny... A good guy with a gun...

[bigrebnc1775]

People with firearms easily become targets.

And even easier without.

 

[bigrebnc1775]

Exactly.

So your point was?

So your point was?

That one never really knows who is the good guy and who is not.

22 year old citizen armed with handgun engaged the shooter from nearly 50 yards and dropped the shooter.

Citizen closed on the shooter and engaged him several more times killing the shooter.

That 22 year-old knew what he was about.

Well if you have situation awareness and train for it you usually can be prepared.

Very true. The good guy with the gun this time seemed to be pretty competent.

3 killed and the guy used a rifle…..yet even living in the Chicago land area, the story didn’t get 24/7 coverage by the local Chicago news….it didn’t even make the top story of the 10 O’clock news……guys doing donuts in an downtown intersection did…..and then a few more stories…..and then a quick mention without even a stand up report at the scene………..


All this ignoring of the story………

Because an armed citizen shot and killed the shooter…..

So, Captain Caveman…….since this is the second mass public shooting stopped by an armed citizen.…….in a month……tell us again that defensive gun use is a myth……..

100 cops sat outside the killing room in Uvalde….armed with body armor, AR-15 rifles, and ballistic shields………and they didn’t try to stop the killer…..

An armed citizen…..in a mall…….no body armor, no ballistic shield And with only a pistol…….stopped the killer….

And that is why this story is over….

lone man with a long gun killed three people before an armed bystander killed him in the Greenwood Park Mall food court Sunday evening, according to Greenwood Police Chief Jim Ison. Two people were injured.

"It appears that he had a rifle with several magazines of ammunition, entered the food court and began shooting," Ison said.

The "good Samaritan" who shot the man with the rifle was a 22-year-old man from Bartholomew County, Indiana, Ison said.

"The real hero of the day is the citizen that was lawfully carrying a firearm in that food court and was able to stop the shooter almost as soon as he began," he said.

Kudos to the hero.

He no doubt saved the lives of many other potential victims.


Thanks to the Second Amendment, maybe some violent predators will start thinking twice before they start shooting.


That hero deserves a medal and a reward for removing from this earth that worthless predator.

Police identify victims, gunman and armed bystander in Indiana mall shooting

Authorities revealed new details Monday on the weekend mall shooting in Greenwood, Indiana, including the identities of the gunman, three victims and the legally armed bystander who fatally shot the gunman.

Three people are dead after a man opened fire in an Indianapolis mall. The shooter was killed by a 'good Samaritan,' police said.

At least 3 dead after shooting at Indianapolis-area mall

That's an odd way of not reporting on a story.

Yes he did. Seems like the only time you will not find a good guy with a gun is in a gun free zone.

If it was up to these stupid Moon Bats the citizen that prevented a mass shooting would not have been allowed to have a firearm.

Of course that wouldn't have prevented the shooter from doing what he wanted to do.

Why don’t armed civilians stop EVERY shooting?

You would that no with 300 million guns on the street, they would have a better track record

because only a small percentage of people have concealed carry permits

It's around 8% overall here in Virginia. In my AO it's 15%.....I suspect the numbers are a lot higher now since the whole Burn, Loot, and Murder thing.

The OP holds gun laws to a standard of stopping EVERY shooting
Armed civilians should be held to the same standard

Smerconish discussed this in his opening. Someone compiled a list of mass shootings. Something like 450 of them. Half the time the shooter kills himself or stops shooting (is taken alive). Of the times that didn't happen--where the shooter is killed, only 10 times did it involve a "good guy with a gun". Most often it's cops or security.

The "good guy with a gun" is a myth.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

Once again we see the value of letting the good guys have weapons.

Gunman kills three in Indiana mall before being shot by armed bystander

Police believe a bystander who also had a weapon saw the shooting and opened fire on the gunman.

Good guy with a gun is a myth.

And he wasn't Rambo enough to stop the first three so.....ban all guns.
