Glad to see a good guy with a gun took out a mentally ill person today in Texas

Glad to see a good guy with a gun took out a mentally ill person today in TexasYou didn’t mention the eight killed and seven wounded at last report why is that?
You did good on the mental illness but left out the drugs, video games and lack of god in schools in your talking points.
Thoughts and prayers!

Again prayer’s didn’t work so Just like republicans god isn’t going to do a damn thing to stop this.
Way past time to cease being reactive and start being proactive.

Glad to see a good guy with a gun took out a mentally ill person today in TexasIf you are going to use the “good guy with a gun” argument to justify a political purpose then who decides who is a good guy or a bad guy? Let’s decide if you are a good guy or bad guy. Your words are your testimony and you hate a lot of people. You fear a lot of things like vaccines. Who knows what would set you off. If someone cuts you off while driving what is your reaction because your words suggest you enjoy being a bully if there is a cause. Your words also suggest that you have an ego that gives you strong man powers. Are you a good guy with a gun or a bad guy with a gun? Now apply that to all people and think about your family being safe.

Just a note. 2 high profile shootings with very liberal open/ conceal carry and it was the LEO who stopped it. My general observation when comments are made about "we are safer" when folks conceal/ open carry or more people carry guns, is that statement with regards to resisting the government or engaging shooters who go-to the mall, hospital, schools? Is there data to show that?

Listen there is no denying Trump derangement syndrome is real and I love it. Not because I like Trump but because I love seeing one person own such a large group of sheepleTrump symbolizes everything we do NOT want in a leader. And I mean everything! I do not hate people who follow trump. As a matter of fact I understand them. Emotion is a human trait. If you want to understand people it will require self reflection. You have proven that you and people like you will never be able to self reflect which seriously makes you and people like you dangerous. So far it is just words. Trump has actions to go along with his words and is dangerous…to all of us including you!

I generally don't care for people who talk a lot and say very very littleMaybe that is because you listen little. I do not think you care for anyone who disagrees with your superego. It is not a good vibe but all you really care about is you so it all makes sense.

A lot to unpack here from Texas State Rep. Keith Self (R-Allen) and I have no idea where to start."Well, those are people that don't believe in an almighty God who, who has, who is absolutely in control of our lives.
I'm a Christian. I believe that he is. We have people though, with mental health that we're not taking care of since this nation made the decision that we were gonna close the mental health institutions. Many of these situations are based on that, uh, and the people that say, and, and I really, I would like to stay away from the politics today because I wanna focus on the victims. Today we should be focused on the families," Self said. "Prayer is powerful in the lives of those people that are devastated. I know people want to make this political, but prayers are important and they are powerful in the families who are devastated right now."

Enforcement was in the area on another call and was able to get to the scene quickly but still several people dead including a baby.
But let's celebrate guns while sending thoughts and prayers.

Is good and bad your decision to make?
I never bully first, ever
Strong man powers? new term you're trying out?

Let me ask you a very simple question that neither you nor any of the other sheeple on here will answer
What law or any amendment or any action to the law would have stopped this shooting?
Very simple question, now try to spin, deflect, call me names, ect
Killing people is illegal, its a crime. Do you think this person would have given up their weapon? used a different kind of weapon?
The problem with the left is the fairytale land you live in, you say take away the guns but that does nothing to solve the problem, the problem is the evil in the hearts of some people

You posted a happy "glad for a good guy with a gun" as your response to a deadly mass shooting in Texas. Law Enforcement is literally doing their job and we all appreciate and expect this to be the case. There was no mythical good guy with a gun on the scene who stopped the shooter. You are confusing law enforcement response with a dumb right wing argument for more guns. Of course law enforcement has guns. Your celebration of a mass shooting is unbelievably grotesque. Your uninformed, low information, arrested development maturity level is on display once again.

Funny how your side wanted to do away with police a couple of months ago
No one cares about 'more guns' the number of guns will work themselves out, my side does not want to lose the ability to protect ourselves and those we care about, the phrase 'more guns' is a talking point happily regurgitated by some
Who is celebrating mass shooting? Pull it together, your emotions have the best of you
Funny the irony in the name calling comment, something about a pot and a kettle

Can you believe all the money his family have received from very bad countries? Wonder what they did to earn that money? No I don't I know exactly what biden did, he did whatever they asked for. For years your side has spoke about election interference, now you know all of the 3 letter agencies were in bed with the white house to suppress information to help biden. You have the proof you're looking for and you are silent as church mice. Hypocrites.
You need to stop with your fortune cookie phycology, its weak in ineffective. You sound like a clown trying to convince people you are in the middle, just stop already, no one cares.
You are just words

Beach Fanatic
Would you call a mall an area where people carry? Seems more like a soft target for someone looking to harm people but I don't want to get in anyones way of trying to make a pointThe point is, that both of these particular States have a very liberal carry law. There are those that say we are safer with more who carry but seems there are not near as many citizens who stop the bad guy as LEOs who do and I would venture to guess there are fewer LEO'S than those who have or can carry legally. So unless there isnsome data that can show how much safer we are, sounds more like BS.

So what law would have stopped this shooting? Here's your chanceTake a look at Texas, the ingrained gun culture and weakening of gun control laws over time. Read. Be informed. Pay attention. Get answers to your lame questions.
"Texas has been rocked by seven mass shootings since a gunman killed 21 people at an elementary school in the city of Uvalde in May 2022, according to a database maintained by The Associated Press and USA Today in partnership with Northeastern University.
In the 12 months since the Uvalde massacre, mass shootings have occurred in the Texas cities of Centerville, Houston, McGregor, Fort Worth, Dallas, Cleveland and now Allen, where a gunman opened fire Saturday at an outlet shopping mall, according to the database.
In each shooting, at least four people were killed, the data shows. The death toll in Allen is the highest since the Uvalde killings, with eight people killed... "

Once again, it’s the guns. And here’s a tip. It’s going to happen again and again and again. Support those advocating for common-sense gun legislation.
