Nearly 900 miles to the west, meanwhile, investigators searched the Phoenix apartment of the suspects. A U.S. law enforcement official told The Washington Post that the attackers have been identified as Elton Simpson, 30 — who had previously been the target of a terror-linked probe — and his roommate, Nadir Soofi, as officials tried to piece together the planning behind the late Sunday attack that wounded one guard.

If not for the marksmanship of this one officer, there is no telling how many people might have been killed.

Just a wild guess, but I doubt it was just the one officer who was drawing done on these birds.

Greta just tweeted that cops shot and killed a man in Baltimore.

All accounts say that both were killed by one officer.

Slow hits count infinitely more than fast misses.

They’re still trying to figure out what the possible motive might be.

Reports said he was a 14 year veteran police officer.

It’s clear he could shoot. I expect he was cool headed too.

And prefers not to be targeted.

My secret gun range on BLM land used to have a dead coyote lashed to a tree. I hate those varmints.

Is anyone in ISIS stupid enough to think everyone at this convention (especially one held in Texas) was unarmed?

I like that a lot better than the “Charlie Hebdo” stuff.

That is so awesome. Thank you for standing up . What a wonderful day for the constitution. I saw the wonderful artist on Gretta and he was a freedom warrior. I am going to withhold an assault on islam and just enjoy American freedom from oppression and fear.
I am also so proud of the patrolman police officer in Duncanville, Texas that killed those two Isis bastard before they could do any real harm. This heroic officer should immediately be given the Medal of Honer. As soon as these scum exited their car and fired a shot ( they were so stupid they couldn’t shoot) — The officer fired a .357 pistol round into each of their worthless skulls killing them both dead! What a shot!! What a man. God Bless him and God Bless America. Praise Jesus Christ the savior of sinners who believe!!
