First I want to express my condolences to the families and those who lost their lives today in this senseless act of violence.
Next, I want to ask what Shelia Jackson Lee has to say about this event. I’ll tell you right now … ‘ no comment’.
Earlier this week, when she proposed the most Orwellian gun bill ever to see the light of day, said that civilians with a gun have not stopped a shooting in 33 years.
I wonder when she will bring this event up? You can bet never and you can bet the leftist media will avoid it like the plague, unless they run with the ‘mass shooting as gun range’ title is on the screen.
The reason you won’t see this story on loop on CNN with the ‘BREAKING NEWS’ title across the screen is obvious as you begin to read the story …
Fox News reported:
‘Armed bystanders stopped a mass shooting in Louisiana that left three people dead, including the suspect, and two injured down the road from the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport Saturday afternoon, according to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office.
“Arriving deputies located several victims suffering from gunshot wounds,” the sheriff said in a statement. “Three individuals were pronounced dead on the scene, and two more were transported to a local hospital for treatment. The two transported victims are in stable condition.”
It happened near a gun shop and shooting range on the 6700 block of Airline Drive in Metairie, La., just west of New Orleans, and armed bystanders helped subdue the gunman, according to authorities.
“At this time, it appears a suspect shot two victims inside the location, then was engaged and shot outside the location by multiple other individuals,” the sheriff’s statement continued. “The suspect is one of the deceased on scene.”
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ New Orleans office said it was sending special agents to assist local deputies with the investigation.’

Reporters were quickly on the scene … notice the lack of mention in the headline that the murderer was stopped by … good guys with … GUNS.

‘Near these shields there is a handgun with an extended magazine on the ground’ he added.

Funny, he didn’t mention that the only reason dozens of people were not killed is that good guys with guns were there to take this a**hole out.
This is the fundamental difference between the left and the right, the right lives in, what we call ‘reality’. Reality is the ugly world we live in, where there are a certain number of bad people, who we call criminals, who will inevitably break the law, obtain weapons and use them on good people.
Our solutions are simple. Do not take guns away from good people, leaving only criminals (by definition) who have guns.
The left on the other hand, in between bong rips, proposes we just ‘get rid of guns’ just like they want to do with nuclear bombs. This is not reality.
The cat is out of the bag, guns exists, and nukes exist. The least worst way to deal with the sad fact that they are ‘a thing’ is to follow Reagan’s doctrine of mutually assured destruction.
In Florida we conceal carry. Criminals know, if they pull out a gun to harm innocent people, their rein of terror won’t last long.
