    Congratulations to the man who in bare feet, shot the killer busy killing at the Church in TX.

    I have yet to see any of the forum democrats, congratulate him for his NRA membership nor how he stopped the mass murder. And he chased down the killer and kept firing.

    The credit for stopping the shooter goes to the barefoot hero. The BLAME for the shooting falls squarely at the feet of our revolving-door criminal justice system who had many opportunities to recognize the shooter was an ongoing threat to our peaceable society, and let him out to roam free anyway.

    The blame can be laid at our vapid society built by progressive ideology where tradition and belief in a higher power than man are shunned.

    Instead of turning to God, they turn to their god, government, for answers.

    Congratulate him? The left is angry with this guy. He ruined their potential gun grab scenario. How are they gonna grab guns if good guys with guns step in and stop the guy from killing more people before police even arrive?

    The shooter killed 12 children and 8 members of one family... He had a history of violence, but he could buy four guns.

    He also displayed typical progressive anti-Christian attitude.

    The Air Force admitted that a clerical error on their end of things allowed the murderer to purchase weaponry. The U.S. government is going to end up paying hugely over this. As -- in this case -- well it should.

    I must have missed something. Didn't the good guy with the gun shoot at the mass murderer as he left the church and was getting into his car?

    What we don't know is if the omission was an error or an Air Force policy.

    yes and this is the part that the leftist mind wont be able to connext the dots on as proven by your post. What do you think you missed there? Im not going to give you the answer. I feel its more educational to let people figure where they went wrong on their own.

    excerpt:



    In November 2012, Kelley was convicted of two charges of domestic assault and sentenced to 12 months in confinement at Naval Consolidated Brig Miramar in San Diego. His first marriage ended in divorce.

    He married Danielle Lee Shields, who came from Sutherland Springs, before he left the Air Force on a bad-conduct discharge in April 2014.

    Even before they wed, there were signs of problems. In February 2014, sheriff’s deputies were called to Kelley’s parents’ house in Comal County, Texas, to investigate a potential domestic violence case after Danielle complained to a friend of abuse. They were married two months later.

    After the couple moved into a mobile home park in Colorado Springs, Colo., Kelley was charged with misdemeanor animal cruelty when a woman complained that he had beaten and dragged his Husky puppy, according to the Denver Post.

    “She stated the white male then began punching the dog with a closed fist near the head and neck area,” according to an August 2014 El Paso County deputy report. “She stated she witnessed four to five punches and then the male suspect grabbed the dog by the neck and drug him away.”

    By 2017, Kelley had moved back to Texas to live with his parents in the sprawling, 3,711-square-foot home with a swimming pool where he grew up, located on a rural stretch of rolling brushland dotted with prickly pear cactus.

    His family lived a comfortable, upper-middle-class life, with his father running a software company that specializes in billings. On the company’s website, Michael Kelley wrote that he and his high school sweetheart moved to the countryside in 1993 to raise their children, of whom Devin was the middle of three.

    “Building the company at the same time as our family involved a whirlwind of activity,” he wrote. “Lots of late hours and sacrifice.”

    In the last two months, neighbors said they had heard bursts of rapid-fire shots coming from the direction of the Kelley home.

    “It was like bop, bop, bop, at random times of the day,” said Gerald Killough, 52, who lives just around the corner. He had never met Devin Kelley or his parents. “People move out here for their privacy,” he said. “You just mind your own business.”

    Kelley took a summer job as an unarmed night security guard at Schlitterbahn, a local water park and resort, but he was terminated after just five-and-a-half weeks.

    “He was not a good fit,” said Winter D. Prosapio, corporate director of communications at the company.

    At the time of Sunday’s shooting, Kelley had worked five weeks at another nighttime security job at Summit Vacation Resort and RV park, a pastoral spot near the Guadalupe River, about 10 miles from his parents’ house.

    Working a 4 p.m.-to-midnight shift — mostly alone — he attracted little attention. The only thing anyone seemed to notice was that he didn’t talk much.

    “There were no warning signs,” said Claudia Varjabedian, the office manager, who did not realize Kelley was the church shooter until about an hour after he failed to show up for his Sunday shift. “He was very quiet. We didn’t know him.”

    Before attacking the church on Sunday, Kelley had sent threatening text messages to his mother-in-law, who sometimes attended the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, officials said. She was not in attendance when Kelley entered the church Sunday.

    Across New Braunfels, flags flew at half-staff Monday outside churches, RV parks and gun stores.

    Outside the Kelley family’s home, police cars were parked in front of a cattle gate. It bore a sign: “No trespassing.”

    So the good guy with the gun did not prevent the hundreds of additional killings that Trump claimed?

    No he didn't. Arguably the real hero was the kid with the car that chased the gunman although I think they both deserve a lot of credit for acting as they did.
