The Good Guy with a Gun was busy in a porno theater. Otherwise, you can bet he would’ve been there to defend the cheerleaders.

Wait that didn’t come out right.

I’m all for due process. However, if a person is apprehended in public, smoking gun in hand, dead and injured bodies all around them, with video and a mumbled, volunteered “Ya got me”, I’m pressed to justify the lack of a summary execution on the spot.

This is the high school that former Rep. Katie Hill went to, and she still lives nearby. She’s quoted in the LA Times story linked by TPM.

I suppose that Republicans can somehow blame Hill’s indiscretions for the gun violence, since access to guns by people who shouldn’t have them has absolutely nothing to do with it.
