So, the "white male" (WGAF?) was prepared for the event by following normal safety precautions. Eyes and ears. Guess he forgot his vest huh? So, once again, the impossible happens. Good guy with a gun. Speedy recovery to the folks wounded. Hopefully the armed citizen is inside all the guide lines for the shoot.

Other reports say the bystander retrieved his gun from car to confront the shooter. He was not carrying concealed.

Who the heck wears range style safety gear to a murder?

This has got to be a first.

Notice they are avoiding coverage of the hero!

“Police Captain Bo Matthews told reporters the armed civilian was ‘a blessing’.

That is a cop with his head in straight.

Takin’ out the trash.

I bet it really sucked for the bad guy when the good guy radically changed the plan of the day.

SHOOTING BACK gets results!

Citizen shoots perp story and is hero - the media won’t like this story.

Honestly, I could care less if this hero had a “permit”. If he did fine, if he didn’t he’s a hero and the governor will pardon him and do the right thing. Our states are infringing our constitutional rights by forcing permitting.

This armed Good Samaritan should be rewarded with a substantial bounty for saving OK taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars which would have been spent on this chunk of human debris for his trial, imprisonment and countless appeals. A fat reward would be serve as a fine incentive to other citizens who are licensed to carry guns.

Sounds like the good guy was a retired/off-duty police officer. He knew what to do.

Aaaaand down the media memory hole with this one. I had to laugh when I read that a reporter had demanded to know whether the defender had a permit or not, because it’s a cold fact that the media are literally disappointed that the people in the restaurant didn’t die and the perp did. Remember this next occasion you might have to talk to a reporter - they are not your friends.

The name of the hero should be made public. Not the name of the shooter.
