Title: Concealed Carrier Stops Mass Shooting
Post by: Clarence on July 18, 2022, 03:09:10 AM
In Greenwood, Indiana an armed civilian was able to kill a mass shooter almost as soon as he started.  This is interesting as Indiana just recently became “constitutional carry”.   

Let’s see how the media handles this.

Surprisingly even CNN is giving credit to the 22 year old hero.

I don't subscribe to either one, but-

NYT
1. Climate Change
2. Uvalde
3. Ukraine
4. Covid

Wapoop
1. Climate Change
2. Gunman kill 3 at Indiana Mall; Bystander Kills Shooter, Police say.  It SHOULD read 'Armed 22 year old Hero prevents Shooter from killing more than 3 People at Food Court; others are wounded' or something like that.

Hero in Indiana shooting:

Constitutional carry
No permit or license
No training
Was carrying in a place with a No Gun sign ( not enforceable by law)

Does not meet the mainstream narrative. 

Bottom line:  Many lives saved

It does my morale good to hear that even the Libs are calling
him a hero. He saved lives, and without a second thought, put
himself in harms way. There it is, in a nutshell, the reason good
people carry. When the police are minutes away, every second
counts. Congrats to a brave young man.

This 22 year old armed citizen turns out to have performed quite a feat.   He landed 8 shots out of 10 from 120 feet under adrenaline rush.   No training or permit to carry.  Apparently just started carrying when Indiana dropped its requirement for a concealed carry license ( Constitutional Carry)

see this as experts review his marksmanship:

I heard..."learned to shoot from grandfather".  Great job Gdad!!!!!  News said he had 8 hits at 40 yds, did not say how many shots  8 for 10 is really good!!!

The police checked the videos and it did not take 2 minutes.  The gunman exited the restroom and started firing.  He was dead in 15 seconds. This good gy was amazing.

This link from CNN (of all places) confirms the 15 second response with the usual BS at the end if yhe article.

Wonder why there is no info on the shooter, how old and abused he was as a child etc?  And why didn't someone question why he was hanging around in the bathroom for an hour?
