Well, they never said that I have seen what caliber gun she had, so it was probably a small caliber hand gun for concealment. Most of them are not known for knock down power and quick kills. Either way, if she hit him multiple times, he’s still dead eventually because the medics should see to him last after they took care of the innocent victims.

This whole thing is so that instead of the media reporting “the loan gunmen who killed X number of people before being gunned down by an armed citizen” they can now report “the loan gunmen who killed X number of people before taking his own life.” I predict the headline will be changed.

They are trying to marginalize the heroic act she did and the role of her faith in all of this, which is obvious to anyone who has any faith themselves and is familiar with the drive by media.

Exactly. Still, it would be nice to know where her shots ‘reached’ him. That I’d like to know.

Oh please. You can get .45 ACP in a perfectly concealable firearm. Taurus Millennium Pro for example. There are also slightly smaller versions in .40 S&W. Both perfectly good stoppers. No body working security, even on a volunteer basis, is going with anything less than 9mm. Maybe .357 in a light snubbie revolver, although reportedly she fired more than rounds than they hold.

Wasn't there a report that the attacker had on a bullet resistant vest? If so, she might have just knocked the wind out of him, maybe broken a rib or three. But stopped him she did.
