In Titusville, FL which is near where I'm from and right across the river from Kennedy Space Center there was a shooting this weekend. It seems there has been some gang action or something going on there in the last year or so. A man's body was found in a burning car.
The community had back to school/ get together event around this murder and were having what they called a "peace event". They were trying to have a community event in which they brought in local kids and families to try to meet each other and try to end the violence.
During this event there was an argument over a basketball game and one man pulled out a gun and start shooting with kids and bystanders all over.. (the video is scary as shit sounding).
A second man who was either part of the event or was near by pulled his own gun and gave chase to the shooter. The shooter then tried to shoot this guy but the 2nd guy returned fire and downed the suspect.. (didn't kill him)
Meaning this is perfect example of a legally armed citizen taking down a bad guy. The local cops call him a hero, the people there called him a hero..
Yet the NRA, the gun nutters , not Trump or no one has used this event to show that armed citizens can stop a active shooter.. Can anyone figure why the the right hasn't said anything about this? Why Trump hasn't called him a hero? I'm at a loss... Usually the NRA rushes to the scene to hold a rally at something like this.. yet they are no where to be seen.. I just don't understand..
The NRA only gave a simple tweet about it... This would normally be a rally cry for them...
