Can we talk about the "Antioch Shooter"?

Postby Kelor on Thu Aug 06, 2015 8:47 am

Now that more of the details are coming out, will any minds be changed on how good it would have been to have a carry holder in that movie theater?

What we know : The "shooter" had a BB gun. He terrorized and injured the theater goers for a vERY long time. His weapons of choice were a hatchet and mace.

This comes right off the heels of the legal gun owner protecting himself in St. Paul, yet it's getting very little press.

It doesn't fit the narrative that gets headlines. No deaths.

From everything I've read, it appears this guy was just looking for a suicide by cop.

I see this kinda like the response to people saying "seems like you hear about so many more shootings lately, it didn't happen X years ago" but the thing is, you don't hear about all the shootings that were stopped before incident because nothing happened that was newsworthy.

And you can't trust the liberal media to talk about something that could be a big case for conceal carry...

Vincente David Montano was shot and killed by the responding officers.

It's too bad that we weren't able to help this person.
