“they would have discovered to everyone there was armed. “

That’s what the backpack full of TATP was for.

He may be hired security. Texas does boast several merc firms and we do allow full auto ownership. Geller said she’d hired a lot of security for the event in addition to the local police.

Private security can also carry in a school, legally.

“Against the law for ccw holders to have a firearm in a school district facility in Texas.”

That is incorrect - it is up to the local school board to allow it or not.

Besides, this event may have been in school building but school was not going on.

I read somewhere that said it was a Garland ISD officer that was shot.

That's what they had? Good thing they didn't manage to gain entry to the event.

Per what I’ve read, yes. The discussion about “he looks like a soldier” and police militarization was referring to another person pictured upthread, not the wounded officer.

Local NBC news just reported that the Garland ISD officer who was shot has been discharged from the hospital.

And Geert Wilders was there. High profile target if they had gotten him.

The contest had a $10,000 prize for the best draw Mohammed picture.
It was also held at a location owned by the Garland School district that had rented it out for a “rally for the prophet” Muslim event a few weeks ago, where they essentially protested criticism of Islam after the Charlie Hebdo killings.
The choice of venue was intentional, and the building had lots of people who had drawing images of Mohammed (often in a satirical way) and many more to view them or hear Geert Wilders or Pamela Geller speak.
The Muslims targeting it was also intentional.

Geert Wilders & I won’t name the others who are a bunch of very brave people. We should all follow their example.

If you regularly post on FR, you’re already some jihadi’s target. Time to arm up, practice, & be ready for the moment when it’s draw, shoot, or die.

....”Every mosque is an enemy fortress and must be treated as such.”......

It’s like them planting vast numbers of military bases IN our country.
