I heard there are many concerns about our freedom and liberties. I hope everyone will keep in mind that voting is the best thing you can do to insure the freedoms we enjoy. VOTE!”mined by the 2020 Election

The only thing missing was the dialogue, “Do you feel lucky, punk?”

That brought tears running down my face. I feel that woman’s pain that totally lost it. Someone finally came to console her!

I am saying that this is the likely story. They are hiding everything about him from us and there is always a reason for that. That means it is clearly not a mid 50s white guy, NRA member, wearing a MAGA hat, doesn’t it?

One thing is certain. This hero will be making a White House visit.

I certainly hope so! President Trump should honor this guy and tell all the world what can happen when the good guys have guns.

Thanks for posting. What a great shot! Textbook!
Looked like 4 or 5 other parishioners had handguns also - they were just a lot slower. He'll be hearing from Pres. Trump.

Saved the lives of many.... from who exactly? Why is it being hidden? THAT is what this is about.

No sport. I don’t believe I will set aside “conspiracy theories”. If that is the term for wondering what is being hidden from us. Post what you want, and I’ll do likewise.

“Wilson used the following firearm:..... “SIG P229-357 SIG.”

My favorite caliber, and one of my favorite weapons. Hits hard, stays flat a long ways. Whenever it is cold and I am wearing a coat, my Python with 125 grain JHPs gives me a very secure feeling.

With the guy moving away from him and I'm estimating 25 - 30 feet - GREAT SHOT SIR. Wish it could have happened a little sooner, but still a great confirmation and reaction time.

It’ll be great! The President will give him a medal, thanking him for the lives that were saved; the cameras will be clicking, they he’ll open it up for questions...

.. and the first 10 questions will be about impeachment, and the next 5 will be advocating red flag laws, and the shooter: He’ll be asked why he still supports and impeached President, and why he didn’t just dial 911 and let the police do their jobs?

A witness told CBS 11 News the gunman walked up to a server during communion with a shotgun and then opened fire. According to the witness, another church member — identified as a former FBI agent and part of the church’s security — shot the suspect. https://dfw.cbslocal.com/2019/12/29/2-dead-1-critically-injured-shooting-white-settlement-church/

The witness should check the video, then correct what s/he saw.

I do not see any contradiction.

Well, we know if it was a Trump supporter that would be all over the news, so we can assume at least that the shooter wasn’t that.

If you watch the entire video, there are about a half dozen CCW holders in the room. Pistols everywhere.

The 357 magnum that Python fires is a different round than the 357 sig this guy was supposedly shooting.

Doesn’t matter what politics the shooter held...likely none. He’s dead.

RIP. Tony Wallace, first victim - killed in front of his daughter.

Tiffany Wallace - Mr. Wallace's daughter who was just feet away. She runs around screaming "Daddy, NO!" as he was butchered by the psychokiller.

What a horrible thing for this kind young woman to go through.

It seems the second victim had also pulled out a pistol - but hesitated and was killed before Jack could shoot the perp.

read all the articles that have filled news and web sites......inform yourself. This thread is about the Hero’s not the FBI.. But I can see you’ve moved it to that so I’ll just bow out of the thread and you can take over.
