Hostage? First I heard of that.
Militant atheists always seem to have this same unproven self assessment of superior intellect.
I am amazed at the news we get in UK papers while our own media is generally clueless.
>>> Mr Willeford, a plumber with no military experience, shot him in the side through a gap in his body armour, forcing the killer to flee.
No military experience, but I bet he hunts/has hunted before.
“shot him in the side through a gap in his body armour, forcing the killer to flee.”
He was shot with a rifle. Unless he was wearing plates (which we have not been told he was), the citizen could have shot him anywhere. Kevlar and other soft body armor can’t stop rifle cartridges.
If you only own a pistol, buy a rifle and train with it.
Good that it was Texas, California would have thanked him and then prosecuted him.
“Police are still trying to establish whether Kelley died from Mr Willefords shot, or if he committed suicide.”
Blondie infobabe on FNC today said the gunshot was “self inflicted”. I kind-of don’t believe that. I’m more inclined to believe that Mr. Willeford’s shot was the one that did him in — the reason the car went off the road the way it did. If he was going to shoot himself, it seems he would’ve pulled over normally instead of stopping after “losing control”.
Knowing the MSM’s opinion of firearms, I’m thinking they don’t want to give credit to an armed civilian for taking out the freak.
It was a private citizen with his personal firearm that stopped this monster and prevented even more deaths!
Maybe they should ask the hostage.
“Freeman Martin, regional director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, said: The suspect dropped his rifle, which was a Ruger AR assault-type rifle, ... “
Dear Commander Dumbass:
`AR’ means Armalite, not “assault-type rifle”.

What I thought it would be.
That’s two positive reports from British publications that appear to applaud a non-police resident’s use of a weapon to stop a murderer. I’m pleasantly surprised!
This is the first we’ve heard about a hostage.
Two good men sent this monster straight to hell before he could hurt anyone else.
You get alot of information bouncing around after a situation like this. Everyone posts bits and pieces of stories you hear.
It’s possible that the reports of a hostage come from callers witnessing the chase.
They see a pickup truck with an armed man in the passenger seat and assume its a guy with a hostage , but it turns out it’s the good-guy chasing the shooter.
A plumber???? A toxic-masculinity, white-privelege deplorable?!
Why we’re seeing a near media blackout on this story:
Shooter was left wing antifa - one of their own
Shooter was Godless atheist - again, one of their own
Shooter was put down by a good guy with a gun - does not fit the media’s anti-gun narrative.
Would wager the plumber who shot through the gap in the armor is a successful hunter that doesn't suffer "buck fever"...guy has my respect.
Hostage? My thoughts too.
