So by now you’ve already heard of the shooting in Las Vegas, where two police officers were gunned down while eating lunch at a restaurant.
The shooting was apparently carried out by an anti-government, Teaparty/Militia married couple, who also took part in the Bundy Ranch standoff against the government just months ago. After killing the officers, they covered the bodies with what has now become the symbol flag of the Teaparty – The Gadsden flag.
Two good guys with guns dead!
But there was another “good guy with a gun” that got blown away by the couple. A 31-year-old Walmart customer, Joseph Wilcox, who was standing near the checkout area with a friend when the couple busted into the department store and ordered everyone to leave.
Wanting to stop the couple and minimize the potential bloodbath that was bound to happen, Wilcox – a legally licensed concealed carry Walmart patron – told his friend that he was going to stop shooter.
According to reports, Wilcox pulled out his gun and “got into position,” aiming for the male shooter. He unfortunately did not see the female shooter with her gun aimed at him. She shot Wilcox in the side. He immediately fell and died from his injury without shooting off any rounds.
The female shooter shot and killed her husband, then killed herself. All that remained afterwards were the bodies of the three “good guys with guns,” the bodies of the two bad guys with guns, and of course, the guns. Five dead bodies… and the guns!
Republicans and the NRA continue to argue that “guns don’t kill people, people kill people.” I wonder which of the “people” the couple used to bludgeon the others to death…!
