It should come as little surprise that last night's stabbing rampage ended because of a good guy with a gun.

Watch:

VIDEO AT LINK.................

Yep. A good guy who happened to be carrying at Walmart ended what could have been a much worse attack because, as we all know, bringing a knife to a gunfight doesn't usually work out.

From the Detroit Free Press:

The suspect, a 42-year-old Michigan resident, was subdued by bystanders at the store after he stabbed 11 people with a folding knife near a checkout counter, Grand Traverse County Sheriff Michael Shea said in a press conference Saturday evening.

Shea said the actions by the suspect seemed to be random and the victims did not seem to be predetermined. He said the ages of the victims are unknown, and none of the victims seemed to be Walmart employees.

Still no ID on the knifeman yet. And it's hard to tell much from videos or photos.

Thankfully citizens held down the lunatic in Traverse City, MI until police arrived.

The only ID the sheriff's office is giving is that the man is a Michigan resident.

Says the suspect is a Michigan resident.

Ice Queen Whitmer responded to the attack by thanking first responders, who, no doubt, should be thanked, but without mentioning that the true first responder was a regular dude who happened to be carrying a gun.

I’m in touch with law enforcement about the horrible news out of Traverse City. Our thoughts are with the victims and the community reeling from this brutal act of violence. I am grateful to the first responders for their swift response to apprehend the suspect.β€” Governor Gretchen Whitmer (@GovWhitmer) July 26, 2025

If it was up to Whitmer's policies, this attack would have continued at least until police rolled up.

But thank goodness that man was carrying and that this attack ended before it otherwise would have.

I consider any Wal-Mart to be a must-carry zone.
