Funny this isn't plastered all over the news. Why would we want to report how guns save lives? How gun-free zones get people killed? I guess this wasn't a gun-free (aka sitting duck) theater.

It won’t be. It doesn’t fit the narrative.

She da woman!

And she’s more intelligent, alert, brave and action oriented than the entire dim-bulb-crat crew of clowns in the house and senate.

And she has more cojones than the Dork-in-Chief.

On can only take bets on which way the DORK would have run if confronted with something like this.

Damn!!!!

Another reason we need more “gun control”.

The officer should have exhibited better “gun control” via a more accurate aim & killed that evil filthy swine.

I read in another article that the off-duty sheriff's deputies were moonlighting as security guards at the theater. The theater may have very well been a gun free zone, except for the armed security guards, and therefore, this incident is not as supportive of CCW as it first may seem. (I'm guessing the theater is gun free, which is why armed security guards are neededin the first place.)

Guns save a life every five seconds or so I am told.

He’s charged with capital murder? Who was killed?

That, or I read the story too quickly.

>Garcia called into his girlfriend’s work at The China Garden restaurant and said he was going to shoot somebody.

Why did someone not have an armed lookout posted for his arrival? Are they all stupid? WTF?

Inexcusable and this is how innocent people get killed.

“Off Duty” therefore a law abiding civilian, trained in the use of firearms and with a CCL stopped a madman from causing any, or anymore, harm.
Hmm, isn’t that what we’ve been saying all along? Someone (hello NRA) should advertise this all over the country.

Of course it’s not plastered all over the news, the would-be mass murderer was stopped. That doesn’t fit into Commie plans. This story must be buried so no one thinks it’s possible for a mass murderer to be stopped.

Hmmm...

Against the law to brandish
Against the law to fire your weapon in a theater
Against the law to fire your weapon in a public setting
Against the law to attempt to shoot someone when your life isn’t in danger
Against the law to kill someone
Against the law to fire at a police officer
Against the law to resist arrest

You know folks, what you could do to fix this, is make more laws.

I’m sure we just haven’t made enough laws to stop this.

The right law would have stopped this guy. We just have to find it. /s

Don’t laugh. This is the Left’s argument. They aren’t laughing.

That’s foam, not your regular saliva.
