I want to believe the authorities, but it isn't adding up. Yet. Someone suggested maybe in the stress, Bourbonnais' and Assam's recall might be defective, could happen, but I'm not buying that either, unless there is some collusion for some inexplicable reason.
I think the biggest thing is that this will worry some that citizens can protect themselves and more will rush out get a weapon to protect their churches and start packing. Plus they were upstaged by a female ex-cop.
Personally I think she saved the day in more than one way. Yes, shots could have ricocheted or pass through (?). Fortunately that didn't happen except shrapnel from the pillar on Bourbonnais if we are to believe that. Curious that he stuck around after getting shot in the arm, may have been battle hardened from Nam. I don't think the police would have known how to handle it at that point, in figuring out what to do, he could have killed more people plus he could have taken hostages.
BTW, has it come out yet where he got all those guns and ammo? He probably could have gotten it legally because of his clean criminal record even though he was disturbed.
Our local talk show host who praised her to the limit, dissed that two other men came forward, guns drawn, wouldn't fire. He said that's because she was in the way. Not from the reports I read. Which is it?
No, falsify an autopsy report. My daughter and son-in-law lived in Colorado Spring for 5-6 yrs....they were stationed there with the Army...and they both told me Colorado Springs is an extremely conservative area. It's not full of the lib loons.
Let's just take the reports at face value...if it's different we'll hear.
