An armed citizen prevents another mass killing:

Alrighty - Good score!

You know, that is good but the article still focuses on the police -- who had nothing to do with saving all of those lives in that instance. I'm not knocking the police, just saying that the real story there was that the store owner's friend with the side arm cut short what could have been a trajedy.

I was hunting in wetern Colorado and went in to a general store/burger joint in Paradox Valley and all of the cowboys who worked in that store had holstered sidearms on. Only time I've ever seen an armed fry cook. I believe that they have had zero incidents in that store with someone coming in to try to rob it.

I wouldn't choose a store that was full of armed customers to rob! LOL! This guy saved a lot of lives!

a score or a store...?
something to settle maybe...?


agreed, but as they say, no good deed goes unpunished....

A store. I fixed it.
And you are right, No good deed goes unpunished. The guy will probably wind up in court defending himself again.

kinda what i was thinking.... save a store full of people, have to justify yourself in court...


well, it should be a no brainer-no bill, tons of GOOD witnesses...LOL

It sounds like there are more than enough good witnesses to make the case for the defense if it goes that far. I hope it doesn't but you never know...

The opening sentence

The newspaper headline read “Two Shot in South Richmond Store” but it should have read, “Armed Citizen Stops Mass Shooting.”

I couldn't have agreed more with this statement. Both headlines are factual, yet one clearly separates the forest from the trees. I agree with the author in that people need to hear about these events in this way.
