RE: Luckily, a good Samaritan with a gun intervened and prevented what could have been a needless tragedy.

If it were New York City under DA Alvin Bragg, this good Samaritan would have been charged.

No pictures and it could be just about anybody because the names are spelled correctly.

I wonder why she didn’t thank the good Samaritan? He is the one who stopped the attack.

“Licensed to Carry Holder Good Samaritan”

I’m shocked to learn that Texas is not a Constitutional Carry state.

“Lotta desert to bury trouble in.”

Might have been a challenge to drag the corpse out of the restroom, through the restaurant, past other diners, out to the car and toss it into the trunk.

Maybe they didn’t name the good Samaritan to make it more difficult for him to be sued.

Texans can carry handguns without a license or training starting Sept. 1, after Gov. Greg Abbott signs permitless carry bill into law (2021)

He was probably licensed from before the new law (2021). Also, it doesn't hurt to be licensed even in a CC state, especially if you travel through other states that aren't CC.

>>Lotta desert to…

Right now, it is seasonal.

What to note are cisterns of old homesteads and farms through out the state.

Looked that goblin up the other day - is a 40 year old hoodrat loser out of Houston with a 20 year long rapsheet. Been in trouble for like half his life. He last got released in 2014. Back in the cage he goes for another round on the taxpayer's dime. He's obviously a defective who's never going to rehabilitate and a sure danger to society, which nearly fortuitously came to a permanent end the other day.
