I also live in Texas. There was a shooting less than mile from my house this evening. Police post on facebook described the perps as 3 Black Males wearing ski masks. Big brave dudes shot one woman and pistol whipped another. They are very very lucky that I live on the other side of the creek, and that I wasn't home anyway. :) I do wish the women had been armed. The neighborhood were it occurred is composed of 4-plexes. It would be Ski Mask boys with the holes in them. .45 caliber holes. Course that would make it much harder to sell my house, which already has a bullet scar in the driveway and on a couple of interior walls. Don't have a clue where that .40 bullet came from. It was a JHP though. I'll get someone to fix the drywall, since I have several other places that need fixing, but have nothing to do with a bullet coming through the window.
Meant to add that the women took themselves to the hospital, the same hospital where some of Nidal Hassan’s victims were taken. Neither has life threatening injuries.
