TX Church Shooting....a Shifting Story...

Anyone else notice how the story/headlines in the media (even Fox) are progressively shifting away from the "armed citizen/ccw" narrative? Every time I refresh the Fox page, the headline changes more and more. Good grief. Another few hours and the guy will be portrayed as a uniformed, on-duty police officer, and the other folks carrying/responding will not even be mentioned.

If indeed he did stop the shooter then I think he should get all the accolades from the press he can stand. After all the amount of media coverage they have given to past mass murderers has been extensive. For a change lets ignore the bad guy and give the good guy all the coverage. If they don't give the bad guys name, description, political persuasion it would be fine with me. It would be hard to go out famous or infamous if no one knows your name. Bob
Ge is essentially willing to address all the comments that we (the legal gun owners) ask every time something like this happens.
He is in his 70?s and lives in Granbury TX. Not exactly out for fortune & fame.
however I just pointed out to my wife it went from four who returned fire to one armed church member and one who did the shooting happened to be a off duty LEO ( possible ex FBI ) firearms trainer , the media can not stand its possible for just a normal citizen using a firearm to stop a bad guy it would just go against there agenda
Morons like Joe Biden believe we are incapable of doing it without the government doing it for us.
Maybe Clint Eastwood will make a movie about him? He's doing the Atlanta Olympics dude.
