But did a civilian actually shoot the murderer? I'm not near a TV and can't seem to pull myself away from ARFCOM to look anywhere else.
View Quote
Yes, an armed citizen grabbed his legally owned AR-15 rifle and took a position of cover. He shot the gunman as he was exiting the church. The gunman
dropped his rifle and ran to his vehicle, an SUV. The armed citizen attempted to end the shooting spree and engaged the gunman in his vehicle, with one
shot blowing out the rear window. The gunman fled in his vehicle. The armed citizen then flagged down a motorist, explained the situation and entered
the vehicle. The driver called the police and pursued the gunman, reaching speeds of 95 mph and passing cars. The gunman's vehicle, with the armed citizen's
pick-up on a few feet behind it, slowed and then went off the road. The driver of the pick-up told police the location of the gunman while the armed citizen
covered the gunman's vehicle with his rifle. The gunman never moved, did not respond to verbal commands and fired no shots for the next 5 to 7 minutes until
police arrived on scene. Evidence seems to indicate he was hit by the armed citizen's first shot and bled out while trying to escape. He died in his vehicle.

MSM is not reporting he was killed by an local citizen armed with an AR-15 rifle who heard the gunfire and responded courageously risking death to try and
save others. He is a hero.

Two eye-witnesses collaborate everything written above in interviews.

I am not here to endear myself to anyone. I'm here to learn and to challenge what I believe to be wrong. If some people decide they hate my guts because I have more liberal viewpoints on certain issues, then those people were not worth talking to in the first place.

There are liberals, moderates, and libertarians in this forum, and they're not all "trolls," as you now know.

I'd like to be your friend in person, but we probably will never be close on politics. Maybe we should just ignore one another's posts when they are political. Or, maybe a friendship with a "liberal" is not something you want.

Well, for one, the guy who wants to burn down the homes of the family of the murderer and then make them march naked through the community. Other nutcases are pushing conspiracy theories about evil liberals in our elected government, or leftwing individuals or groups, carrying out this attack in order to...? I don't know, maybe drum up support for gun control?

I realize parts of the US government have done some pretty bad things in the past, mostly in other countries, but when someone is going around saying that my government is murdering innocent families in Texas to further legislative aims, then the nicest thing I can think to call them is nutcase.

Just ran across this:

Wilson County Sheriff Joe Tackitt Jr. said Sunday night that the shooter fired several shots outside before entering the Sutherland Springs church and walking toward the front of the congregation.

Tackitt says the gunman then turned around and opened fire on his way back out the front door.

“I don’t think they could have escaped. You’ve got your pews on either side,” Tackitt said.The shooting at First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas left 26 people -- ranging in age from 5 to 72 years old -- dead and 20 wounded, authorities said.

Damn....sounds like he looked at everybody as he shot them. I don't guess looking at little children while murdering them mattered to him...as long as they were stupid Christian children.

Who cares... Two wrongs to make a right.

False, it was already being done but on a slower pace because the MARKET didn't demand it.  If the market at the time had a need for it, it would have provided it just like every other time.

This doesn't.  Feel free to provide any information stating there is no profit motive and that research isn't already done.  You believe a nutjob who thinks his crazy murdering is justified just didn't seek mental health treatment because it was too expensive?  Seeking help isn't hard to do or expensive...

Then we have conflicting reports (shock me) since even the DailyMail has stated

Kelley, 26, of New Braunfels, a suburb of San Antonio, was confronted by a neighbor armed with a rifle who shot him through a gap in his body armor
from link I posted previously Texas church shooter, 26, who killed at least 26 people - including a pastor's 14-year-old daughter - had been dishonorably discharged from the US Air Force for assaulting his wife and child
And seems to be crediting the church neighbors with firing at and pursuing the perpetrator.

How unusual they wouldn't want to give credit to a civilian shooter. /sarc

First Amendment doesn't require a private site to host anything and everything.  You apparently don't understand the First Amendment either.  You are free, of course, to go out and get funding and contributors and start your own site.  OTOH, it's more than a little unlikely any reasonably intelligent person with internet experience wouldn't know that forums ban people all the time.  Som there are several conclusions one could draw.  You probably wouldn't like those opinions either.

Probably a safe bet that you like and trust CNN which recently quoted your leader:

"Some of the politics we see now, we thought we had put that to bed," Obama said. "That's folks looking 50 years back. It's the 21st Century, not the 19th Century."
In a second campaign stop in Virginia, Obama took aim at the methods Trump used to win the election.
"We've got folks who are deliberately trying to make folks angry -- to demonize people who have different ideas; to get the base all riled up because it provides a short-term tactical advantage," Obama said, again without specifically naming the President.

That's just giving a little back in due course.
We do have a mental health issue in our country, let's talk about anti-depressants and the fact that many of the shooters are on them.

Regardless, fixing metal health issues is impossible when there is just plain evil in humans as there always has been.

Oh, and government genocide (democide) is the largest single cause of human death in the last few hundred years. Communists and socialists need to do their thing ya know.

I'm sorry AGAIN.

Nothing can be done. They use the 1st against the 2nd. The mods are just being fair.

Nothing else? Because that just isn't going to be enough to keep the Second Amendment as we know it today. The majority of Americans (not just liberals) are going to support gun control if these mass killings go on unabated, and if most Americans think nothing serious is being attempted to prevent them. We need new ideas. We need to get out ahead of the conversation with ideas before Schumer and Pelosi get to decide. The majority in Congress won't last forever, and if you think Trump won't support gun control, you should google some of his past comments on guns.

What would you suggest be done? I'm not picking a fight, I honestly would like to know what you have in mind.

This just happend to me for responding to Will Wheaton's post on Twitter. He posted this response to Paul Ryan's Tweet -


“The murdered victims were in a church. If prayers did anything, they’d still be alive, you worthless sack of shit,” Wheaton wrote in a reply tweet.

Wheaton Blocked me and Twitter gave me a time out for posting that he is a worthless fuck.

So...you're saying....you don't give a shit about the reasons to tax people to impose mental health evaluations and would rather have this thread reserved for the reporting of what happened in Sutherland Springs on Sunday? We can't ignore the horror of the shooter facing little children before shooting them and just discuss enlightened mental health dogma?

Damnit....what a concept.

So it's the gun owners for fault for locking his front door but not putting a gun in a safe?  DO YOU REALIZE YOU HAVE JUST SAID THAT?

First of all, thank you, for not dismissing me out of hand.

I agree: stuff like "fast and furious," definitely, we need to look out for that. We need to defend our rights. However, I think we also can at least try to come up with some solutions. I mean, even little things might help.

Example: What if a state government that has sales taxes excludes taxes for gun safes and lock boxes? It's a tiny step, but maybe a few more people would buy gun safes and lock up their guns, not just in case they have a mentally ill person in the house, but also to make it harder for criminals to steal guns when the owners aren't home.
So it's the gun owners for fault for locking his front door but not putting a gun in a safe?  DO YOU REALIZE YOU HAVE JUST SAID THAT?
No, I'm saying that if a gun is locked in a safe when a gun owner is not home, then a burglar would have a more difficult time stealing that gun, and if the burglar doesn't steal the gun, then there will be one less gun in the hands of criminals. We want that result.

If the parent of the insane guy in Newtown would have kept the rifle locked away from him, dozens of kids would be alive today.

It's just one thing to prevent some shootings, and it doesn't infringe on the Second Amendment.

I'm very happy to listen to some ideas, but things that are actually doable, not stuff like "make people responsible again." We don't have a magic wand.

Can we use our brains to come up with anything at all to cut down on some of these mass killings, or do we throw our hands up and say, "shit happens," because the majority of Americans don't have the same level of enthusiasm for guns as we do, and if the only solution they hear is "ban assault weapons," then they will support that and other restrictions.

Since it's liberals who are convinced that firearms are only for killing, and have demonstrated that principle repeatedly, we can start by making sure all liberals are not allowed to posses anything more lethal than a butter knife. To continue, if some liberals kid shoots up a school the parents get held responsible, both civil and criminally. You see, making people responsible again IS the key. Coddling the deranged (liberalism is a certifiable mental disorder) is the work of the Hatter, and needs to end immediately. People who don't wish to be responsible can build their own prisons and then occupy them until they are sane enough to re-join society. End of story.

As for banning any firearms; I will tell you that we are tired of being blamed for the actions of the deranged. I speak for many here when I say "will not comply".

I actually don't know, but I would guess that many of them are stolen.

Uh yeah actually, create a thread arguing the merits of pro and con, which doesnt make 63 odd pages littered with useless (pertaining to the subject of this thread) arguing and diatribe.


Perhaps wait till the bodies of these poor people are cold first before encouraging this leftist drivel
