Jordan Salinas hailed as Hero after opened fire on Twin Falls In-N-Out gunman, tried to stop shooting that left 3 dead, 7 wounded… Law enforcement has not yet issued an official statement detailing his role in the incident or whether he fired the shots that ultimately stopped the suspect. [More]
Well, he wasn’t killing anybody else while occupied with Salinas, was he? If “the suspected shooter died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound,” what led him to believe it was over for him? Any other wounds?
It takes a lot of courage to go up against a rifle with a pistol.
I’m sure all the grabbers calling for more citizen disarmament would prefer no armed resistance — a higher body count always gives them more blood to dance in.

Salinas’ bravery is as much for his facing law enforcement and media scrutiny as the bad guy’s rifle fire. I’m glad that so far, they’ve been willing to stick to the hero narrative.
