    Whatever dumbassed response they come up with (it'll probably be about
    banning something or closing yet another loophole), then they've got
    to figure out how to handle how one young guy with a pistol went right
    up against a guy with a rifle, compared with several hundred armed
    cops diddling around for over an hour when one guy with a rifle shot
    up a school. I don't think that "only cops should be armed" is going
    to work very well.

    If they say anything, they'll probably say it was a fluke........or a
    flounder or a halibut or something....... and instead of killing him,
    he should have just shot the "long-gun rifle" out of his hands. Some

    A lucky fluke sounds about right. He could have killed innocents. If
    he hadn't been some macho vigilante compensating for a small penis he
    would have called 911 and let trained law enforcement handle the
    situation rather than being macho and endangering innocent bystanders...

    A lot of them will think that - but are probably smart enough to not

    Well, perhaps -- however, so far I've been having trouble thinking of a scenario where they can cast this in a negative light to anyone except
    the very Woke. But, after reflection, there will be

    I think for the average person a good guy with a gun stopping a bad guy
    with a gun will not be frowned upon.

    However, I can see the Left claiming that things like this will just
    encourage more vigilantism. However, I don't see much political mileage
    in doing that because more and more people are discovering that all the
    left does is jibber-jabber nonsense that doesn't work even in theory -
    much less in practice.

    So far, it appears that I am right -- the Left is going to sit this one
    out.

    I imagine the "good Samaritan" wishes to avoid any notoriety for his "story"? The event could easily ruin his life, unlike Zimmerman, or that kid, hunting BLM demonstrators, who sought a career from their actions..... Plenty was reported about them.

    Since it's our duty, why all this dumbass gun banning?
    "When seconds count, cops are only minutes away" is not just for

    I remind you of Uvalde: Several hundred armed cops stumbling around
    with their heads up their asses while children bled to death.

    That would be like rewarding you with filthy lucre,

    Hey. I don't think all lucre is filthy. Gold, for example, is pretty clean.....especially after you wash it while wearing gloves, an N95
    mask, and singing Happy Birthday softly.

    for
    mailing in your ballot, following the science, and voting for H.

    Why would I want money for that? Are you projecting again?

    Rewards should come from the
